Workshop Overview
This basic theory workshop is the perfect introduction for any beginning student seeking to learn Tai Chi as a path towards personal mastery of mind and body. This workshop is not designed to make you a Master of Taijiquan (Tai Chi as a martial art), as that is implausible to do over a few lessons and without an experienced instructor. Rather, the purpose of the workshop is for you to learn a few Tai Chi exercises that illustrate a better understanding of some of the major fundamental theory and deeper concepts that lie within the art.
What you will learn
- A fundamental meditation practice called ‘Zhan Zhuang’ (Standing Like a Tree)
- The fundamental theories of Yin / Yang, Bagua (8 energies) and Wu Xing (Five Elements)
- A new simplified form in accordance with the General Administration of Sport of China called ‘Bafa Wubu’ (translated as; 8 methods 5 steps)
Who will benefit from this course
- Beginners and newcomers seeking a gentle introduction to tai chi without delving too far into the deeper aspects of Tai Chi.
- Working professionals looking for a simple program to help alleviate the stress of the modern work environment.
- Health and fitness professionals who are looking at offering other alternative programs to their clients.
- Experienced Tai Chi professionals can benefit from the theoretical concepts that they may not be familiar with and a new routine to add to their repertoire.
- This course is inclusive to all ages, genders and skill levels.
