Practice for Health, Fitness & Form

Practicing daily, 3-5x a week or even 2-3x a week will help achieve improvements to both posture and balance.  It couples the deep programming methodology of learning via slow movements in tai chi with repetition to build the muscle memory to achieve balance in posture, health and musculature as well as reinforcing the training classes.

While training classes are focused on learning, practice classes are focused on repetitive execution to achieve fluency. With repetition, slow moves may also become fast moves in high level execution in advanced training or push hands.

Tai Chi Forms Practice

Tai Chi Forms (a.k.a. Taolu) is simply a set of movements or postures linked together in a continuous sequence. Students learn the “Form” in a training course but will need regular practice to achieve fluency. This class is suitable for anyone who is currently taking a training course to learn Yang Style Tai Chi, Chen Style Tai Chi, Cannon Fist, or any Tai Chi Weapons. After learning the movements in your training course, you need to practice in order to remember the moves and also to execute them better. Students practice on their own or help each other to remember the moves. On occasions when you miss a regular training session, this is where you can get some help to catch up.

This class is also good for those who are taking a break from training, you can continue your practice to maintain and keep what you have already learned.
