COURSE OVERVIEW :
Taijiquan excellently serves the needs
of leaders of commerce and industries. Besides helping them to
manage stress and attain peak performance, it gives them vitality and
mental freshness as well as provides them with basic self-defence and
recreation. Moreover it is convenient. It needs only about 15 minutes of
practice in the comfort of their home.
The benefits are not just physical; the meditative aspects of Taijiquan
and its emphasis on relaxed movement contribute to serenity of mind and
clarity of thought. More than just an excellent form of exercise: it
allows one to relax, heal and rejuvenate our mind and body.

with its emphasis on gracefulness, gentleness, and
harmonious energy flow, is intrinsic to the development of
mental freshness and cosmic harmony. |

Note:
Chi Kung is the art of developing
cosmic energy, the very energy that sustains all our
functions and movements in life.
Taijiquan
without Chi (energy) is no longer
Taijiquan; it becomes a form of gentle exercise which may
provide some benefits in terms of blood circulation and
recreation, but it is unlikely to give the type of vitality and
mental freshness commonly ascribed to Taijiquan training. |

Taijiquan Set Training (See video and picture series below) |
It is a well-known fact that our intensive courses are really
intensive, covering many important areas in some depth within a very
short time. The teaching, however, is methodical and systematic,
enabling you to progress from scratch to fairly advanced levels. You
need not have prior experience in the various areas mentioned above, but
you need to be able to perform basic Taijiquan patterns (even just their
external forms) reasonably well before attending the course. And when
you have returned home you need to practice what you have learnt so that
the benefits can become lasting.

VIDEO AND PICTURE SERIES NOTES :
It will be a great help to you if you familiarize yourselves with
these forms or routines before you attend the course. You need not be
perfect in them, as fine-tuning will be done during the course, but it
will be very helpful if you can perform them without worrying about the
accuracy of their forms and sequencing of their order, so that during
the course you can focus on developing skills rather than learning
forms. But if you have difficulty doing so, don't worry. You will learn
them systematically during the course. These video clips will serve as
useful source material for reference.
