Our system of Tai Chi starts by taking a moment to settle the mind and create space.
We practice "Five Loosening Exercises" and "Movement Zero," also known as "Open-Close" or "Hun Yuan Zhang."
These exercises train the body to open and relax, synchronise movement with the mind, and connect the body through rising, falling, turning, or stillness.
We learn the 37-step Tai Chi form, developed by Grandmaster Huang from Cheng Man-Ching’s teachings.
As students develop understanding, they begin partner work with "Eighteen Fixed Push Hands" and "Set Pieces."
As learning deepens, we refine our Tai Chi principles, engage in "Sensing" exercises, and practice "Free Pushing."
Wee Kee-Jin (my teacher) teaching Grasp Sparrows Tail - “the essence” of the Tai Chi Form, Langley, UK, 2022.
My passion for Tai Chi and Chinese acupuncture began when I first discovered Wing Chun Kung Fu at the age of 16.
Lofty ideas of using others force against them were bandied around without any real concept of what that meant save for some rudimentary mechanics.
I studied Tai Chi Yang styles and Cheng Man Ching styles spanning across 10 years when I finally met my teacher Wee Kee-Jin in 2002 at a masterclass in Bristol. It was here that gave me a glimpse of the true nature of Tai Chi and I was instantly converted to this system.
Wee Kee-Jin was the last live-in student of Huang Cheng-Shyan and was told by his peers that it was a great time for him to be an inner disciple since it was only then that Huang was ready to reveal all he knew.
