Tai Chi is like meditation in motion that helps you breathe deeply and naturally.
Tai Chi Flow refers to a practice that emphasizes the fluid and continuous movement characteristic of Tai Chi. This approach focuses on maintaining a seamless and harmonious flow of motion, enhancing the meditative and therapeutic aspects of Tai Chi. Key elements of Tai Chi Flow include:
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.
