I teach in the tradition of Cheng Man-Ching, as transmitted by his student - my teacher Wolfe Lowenthal. Professor Cheng saw Taichi as a way to approach the Tao, as a method of spiritual development. He emphasised awareness, relaxation, softness and non-competition.
Our method is based on the solo ...form, pushing hands, Da Lu (moving step pushing hands), sword form and fencing. Our study is of balance, Qi, and residing in the present moment. Tai chi promotes a calm spirit, a peaceful heart and a clear and logical mind.
