Tai Chi is like meditation in motion that helps you breathe deeply and naturally.
Clear Tai Chi is its own style. You could call it a modified Yang style that is heavily influenced by the Wu style with some aspects of Chen and other styles. Our movements are usually practiced the way you see them in Yang style. However, our primary push-hands method comes directly from Ma Yueh Liang (a Wu Style Master.) When we learn combat applications, we learn how to apply many different variations of each movement. This often includes Wu Style and sometimes Chen Style apps.
The primary focus of Clear Tai Chi is on developing a high degree of internal skill (Internal Kung Fu) through the study and practice of the Tai Chi principles that you see across all quality Tai Chi styles.
Our instructors gently push students to concentrate on each motion so that they enter a meditative state that lets them flow with the room's energy. By the time class ends, students often feel less anxious, more flexible, and full of energy.

Thrive Tai Chi begins with 8 and 13 Movement Clear Tai Chi forms.
These are short forms. You will discover that it's not about the quantity of movement but the quality of your movement. The forms are easy to learn, enjoyable, and accessible to students at a whole range of levels of physical skill and ability. Our forms are based on principles (softness, relaxation, straightness, centeredness) that are the source of Tai Chi's health benefits. An advanced form will be available as you progress. You will also learn Nei Kung, Qi activation, Cultivation, and Flow. Click Here for more about the Clear Tai Chi Chuan system.
Tai Chi is practiced as a "form," a well-defined sequence of movements that flows from one posture to the next according to underlying principles. Tai Chi forms are learned by practicing the movements and principles in class weekly and at home every day. In class, teachers demonstrate the movements, and students practice them together as a group. The teachers give you hands-on adjustments to help you feel the best alignment for the movements and postures. No special equipment or uniform is required - just wear comfortable, athletic clothing.
Push Hands (Tui Shou) is a partner exercise that is used to build sensitivity and to truly test your relaxation. It builds internal skills that can be used for healing and for martial applications. It is easy to convince you that you are relaxed until you are in contact with another moving person. You'll soon discover areas of tension and will learn to relax further. Push Hands is not taught in many Tai Chi programs; however, it is imperative to full Tai Chi instruction. We will practice Push Hands in a very sensitive, relaxed way - there will be no aggressive tournament-style play in our group training sessions
Properly taught and practiced, Tai Chi can be safely and productively done by anyone who can stand and walk. The movements and postures of the Tai Chi form can and should be done at your individual capacity and adapted to your current condition.
