Comment:
I took Matt for both Yoga and Tai Chi. I enjoyed both immensely. Yoga was a bigger class and Tai Chi was fairly small, so we got more 1 on 1 time with him. He only teaches the right side because it takes so long to learn. He tells you why it's good to do Tai Chi. I wish it wasn't just pass/fail because I would love to take this again. I'll miss him

Had him for Yoga at WSU and Tai Chi at sinclair; he's awesome at both! Only complaint is that he let students text during yoga. not on purpose but wasn't strict enough, i feel. otherwise, i wish he was my personal yogi!

If you have any interest in yoga, McCormick is a great way to start out. Read the book too if you're into religion and mysticism. He'll appreciate it.

I took HPR 100 / Tai Chi. He is a great guy. He told tons of interesting stories in class. The 'written final' was a breeze and the form test was done with everyone together, not individually. No one fails his class if you show up every day. I will be taking him again!

Easy class. Just had to write a two page paper which I think He just checked to see if you did it. He said there was a final but we all did everything together so it was no problem. Good class.

You have to be on time! Class starts with breathing exercises, then the stretches. He encourages students to push themselves but never asks for more than you are comfortable with. Ends with meditation. He's very nice. Improves strength, flexibility, breathing, balance, overall health, concentration, etc.

Comment:
Very nice and easy going. He really knows his stuff. One thing I didn't like was how if you weren't doing the form exactly right he would have everyone stop and show them how it was not the right way to do the move.. kinda uncomfortable! Class could be relaxing if the moves didn't hurt the thighs so much. Don't take if you have bad knees!

Make sure you are in the room before class time, even if he says he'll wait a few minutes for those running down the hallway. He won't.

Comment:
In a classroom built for relaxation-who cares if God is involved or not-and that one comes from a Christian. Matt is an amazing yoga instructor. I took that class to be able to relax and gain flexibility. At the end of the quarter, i had found active ways to de-stress and could once again perform some of the gymnastic moves that i have not been able to do since I was six. He helped me discover things about the human make-up that I would have never figured out on my own. Take the class. It's amazing.

To respond to previous responce yes he is very new agey but he never pressured any belief system unto the class. He was more corny then anything else. Very relaxing class taught by a passinat zen kind of teacher.

Comment:
Mr. McCormick is incredibly anti-christianity and makes his lectures work around his beliefs. He specifically stated "The problem with Christians is that they refer to God as a noun when God and Jesus are verbs." I found him incredibly offensive and would not recommend this class to anyone.
