My Taiji Experience:  I have been practicing the 37 posture short form of Taijiquan, developed by professor Cheng Man-Ch'ing, for about twenty years.  I have been teaching this style for the last 10 years.  Professor Cheng developed his style of Taiji in the 1940s in China; he shortened and simplified the much longer form of the Yang family to make it easier to learn and pratice. This form features high stances and smooth flowing movements with an emphases on softness and yielding.
 
Taiji Classes:  I periodically offer classes that are open to the public at the historic old Cove Creek high school.  The introductory class is six weeks long, covering the history, philosophy, health benefits, and movements of the Taiji form.  Please check back often for updates.
