Exploring the Depth of the 24 Forms Tai Chi with Spiral Force Dr Paul Lam
1-Day Live In-Person Workshop
How Spiral Force enhances the 24 Forms
****************************************
Depth of Yang 24 Forms Workshop
The 24 Forms was created in 1956 by 4 famous experts in China. Today it is the most popular set in the world. It contains all the key principles of tai chi.
Dr Paul Lam has worked personally with well known experts including the main creator of the 24 Forms - Master Fu Zhong Wen. In this workshop, Dr Lam will go through each form in detail to explore the depth and inner meaning. You will be working towards the ultimate purpose of tai chi; to cultivate your qi most effectively and enjoyably.
He will explain the mysterious Spiral Force (Silk Reeling Force or Chan Ssu Jin) and how to use it to almost magically improve the power of the 24 Forms.
Dr Lam will be sharing his 49 years of tai chi experience and medical knowledge to make tai chi more powerful for health and wellness.
At the completion of the workshop, you will be able to progress to greater heights in tai chi and gain more enjoyment in your practice.
