Tai chi is as deep as an ocean and as tall as a mountain containing the wisdom of our ancestors.
My Tai chi is varied and spans a total of over 22 years, during which time I learned Yang, Chen, Sun, and Hun yuan from a few different teachers, including the traditional family linage holders as well as some specialized teachers solely based in China that share their secrets with inner door disciples only. Tai Chi has so many variations and everyone teaches it differently. Tai chi and qigong has so many different layers that it takes time to learn the initial frame or choreography but will greatly benefit the health of the human body. Learn all about body alignment, internal body awareness that we all should be conscious with its a skill that is seldom taught in the West but in the East is taught from a young age.
To be honest it’s hard to describe tai chi and qigong it’s not really something that can be watched or observed. It must be practised over time to be understood, Tai chi is as deep as an ocean and as tall as a mountain containing the wisdom of our ancestors. Deeply transformative tai chi and qigong have been practiced for thousands of years.
I would love to teach you my understanding of tai chi and qigong having lived what I have been taught by my renowned teachers.
Here is the brief science part or ancient wisdom, I talk in terms of energy which is in constantly changing our primary sources are usually food and air, energy is the absolute basis for all forms of life and matter in the universe. Our body runs on vibrational essence or electromagnetism. electromagnetism is a force which most of us are not yet familiar it was Western science that verified its existence, giving a logical explanation for health enhancing benefits seen through internal exercises such as tai chi, Yiquan and qigong practice. Electromagnetism is a intrinsic force permeating the atomic structures of all objects, including the atmosphere.
it is a Natural force and as such is married closely with the energy in the body, this needs replenishing to create harmony within your body. In ancient times the body was described as a battery and was composed of three parts. Structure: cells, organs, bones, muscles, skin layers, blood vessels, nerves and the many physical structures they form, Liquid: the intra and inter cellular liquids that play essential roles in the generation of electrical energy and lastly Electrical charge: This is the charge responsible for firing or activating the body and animating its structures. It is called “Life Force”, Life Energy, Spirit or Electromagnetism the ancient Chinese refer to this force as “Chi” or Qi. This is the least understood area of study; you cannot measure energy/Chi by any equipment. It can only be experienced through our feeling senses.
I happily share my knowledge freely with my students so they to can learn tai chi, its intricacies and principles in experience based practice with me and each other.
