Our workshop of the March 4-5th week end was well attended. A new date has been set which will match the World Tai Chi Day celebration on April 29-30th 2006. You can read more about this wonderful event here.

The day will start by gathering at the Castillo De San Marco on the 29th at 10:30 am. After that we'll congregate for the workshop at the Integral Retreat for the two day Cloudy Day Tai Chi workshop. I will be posting more information as it becomes available.

I have also added one extra hour of instruction per day. Thus Saturday's workshop will be from 12:00 till 5:00 pm and Sunday's from 8:00 am to 1:00 pm. As in previous workshops, a free DVD will be included along with reading material with photos of each posture.

Please keep in mind that this workshop is only an introduction to Tai Chi. A solid introduction that will help the participant make a well informed decision as to whether or not to pursue further study.

Professor Cheng Said,
“...The only true secret in taichi is the phrase:Your mind is the commander. Your mind moves the chi and chi transports your body through an initial impetus. Your hands and feet never move independently but wait until your waist clearly receives the mental command-then they follow the waist. So when we read that in taichi the hands should not move, this includes the feet. Also, remember to move as if every part is strung together on a single thread.”
-Professor Cheng Man Ching
