Squatting Single Whip

The Yang Styles of Tai Chi being taught provides great emphasis on relaxation, flexibility, increased range of motion, centering, and balance. Students learn to ‘relax’ while remaining alert. As students advance they learn push-hands techniques. These techniques develop the ability to ‘listen’ to the movements (and intent) of another person. In more advanced stages students learn self defense through relaxing, offering no resistance and utilizing the force of an opponent against them. Later instruction includes learning the Tchoung Ta Tchen moving push hands, two man drills, partnered sets, and more. Participants who practice regularly will experience body strengthening and realignment.
