Traditional Yang-style Tai Chi Chuan is an ancient form of exercise
well-known for its soft and flowing movements.
We have an open and friendly policy in our classes. The groups are small
(generally 6-8 people). Although everybody learns the same exercises,
the primary objective is to cater for the student´s individual needs.
Here are the three pillars upon which we build our class:
Chi Kung
Chi Kung is also called "standing like a pole or as a tree." The goal in
Chi Kung is to centralise the flow of Chi energy in the body, to quieten
the mind and to improve body posture.
Form
The Foundation Form is a series of linked postures specifically designed
to circulate the energy around the body. Practicing the form helps to
dissolve tension in the muscles and joints.
Partner work
Partner work generally involves some gentle posture testing. Posture
testing fundamentally explores the threshold of our stability and
rooting in a safe, healthy, helpful and collaborative way. Partner work
heightens sensitivity and expands awareness. But most importantly, IT IS
FUN.
Tai Chi Chuan is for ALL ages. Tai Chi Chuan can alleviate many physical
problems, especially those caused by modern day stress and tension. It
slowly builds strength, stamina and flexibility through the subtle
realignment of body posture. Many people find profound improvements
immediately.
