In the Taiji forms we cultivate the physical aspects of “what to do”, including choreography and coordinated movement, and then the “how to do” by using grounding, inner connections, synchronized movement, loading and relaxation according to the Taiji principles; all without the distraction of an outside force trying to influence us. So, in the form we cultivate the substance of our practice, but it is in partner training where we discover the timing (when) and the purpose (why). The partner work of Taiji shows what we can or cannot (yet) do, what we do or don’t do, what we already understand and what we should still be researching.”

This workshop gives all students of the Huang system, but also students of other Taiji systems, the opportunity to question and improve your own Taiji.
