Chen style is vigorous and sophisticated, containing fast and slow movements along with powerful spiral force. Sun style includes a unique qigong (life energy) along with agile steps. These two seemingly contrasting styles have complementary internal energy. Using his deep understanding of tai chi principles and with over 40 years of experience, Dr  Lam composed the Tai Chi for Energy set by combining both styles to bring you greater synergy.

With regular practice and in a relatively short period of time, you will achieve better health and wellness, more internal energy, and an improved ability to manage stress. 

The program contains warm up and cool down exercises and 16 movements.

This is a 2-day instructor qualification workshop and will be conducted over Zoom.  Participants will need to prepare with the DVD and send a video of themselves performing the movements prior to the training.  You will need a space large enough to be seen from head to toe during the training, as well as a way to see across the room (a phone will only suffice if you can connect it to a TV or computer so you have a larger screen).

• Following the training, you will be scheduled an individual Zoom session to review the movements and teaching method.  For those with another Tai Chi for Health certification, only 1 session is required; everyone else will be scheduled 2 sessions.  

Following the successful completion of the training, instructor certification is obtained when you join the Tai Chi for Health Institute.
