Tai Chi in Birmingham...
Tai Chi is about moving in an optimally balanced way. In combat application, the focus is usually on using soft moves to gracefully deflect hard moves, however, if the opponent is soft & weak, we may be stiff & strong to overpower them. It's all about good posture and keeping bodyweight centred. Push Hands is a great pairwork exercise; a way for students to develop fast. Chi Kung (Qi Gong) breathing exercises are synchronised with body movements for spiritual harmony. Tai Chi forms (solo movement sequences) cover various ways to move, suitable for combat but also in everyday life, when lifting things, pushing things, pulling things, in all directions. Tai Chi's combat techniques are very dynamic and still well-organised by Birmingham's best teachers, covering the whole spectrum of striking, grappling, handwork & footwork.
