In Tai Chi we work with complimentary opposites!

While practicing Tai Chi we make ​a
vertical connection to the ground;
while increasing and decreasing
the pressure from the hip
to the feet.
Very much like skiing; pressure is added and lifted in the feet, like making turns
on skies down the mountain.
In Tai Chi, bodyweight is not lowered or dropped into the thighs,
because weighting the thighs
will hurt the knee. 
​Instead, the weight is dropped to the feet.
Tai Chi players should be able to jump
while in any tai chi posture.  
While practicing Tai Chi, the arms learn
to "let go" allowing the hips to motivate
the upper body, thereby bringing
relaxation and tranquility.

PUSH HANDS

Temporarily discontinued
Waiting for social distancing to change!
TAI CHI PUSH HANDS 
Push hands bring tai chi players together
to share neutralize, adhere, follow,
connect, roll away, push, and laughter!  
In tai chi push hands, we attempt to put into action, the strategies of the Taoist classics. Softness overcomes hardness,
and doing less is more.

​ Push hands emphasizes the value
of yielding and relaxing,
and the disadvantage of
resisting and using tension.
Push hands trains the ability
​ to read and interpret external force.
