Certified instructor description:

Tai Chi Chuan is an internal Chinese martial art that emphasizes balance, relaxation, coordination and looseness. Sifu Gary Wragg, one of the foremost exponents of the Wu Family Style, teaches the fundamental practices of this beautiful and health-promoting art. In this series he introduces both beginners and the more experienced to a range of authentic forms and exercises, supported by an overview of the theory and ancient philosophy that underpin this practice. The syllabus presents a breakdown of each individual form, loosening exercises, meditation and flow with a focus on breathing.

Part 1 introduces the 12-STEP FORM created by Gatekeeper and Grandmaster Wu Kwong Yu, Head of the Wu Family. It offers a breakdown of each movement as well as the full continuous sequence.

Part 2 presents a series of foundational loosening and balancing exercises. It includes the teaching of the 14 FORM – the first section of the traditional 108 Wu Style Form. It also features a demonstration of advanced sabre and sword forms.

Part 3 focuses on meditation through a set of exercises that emphasize stillness and movement, as well as detailed instruction on accuracy of individual forms with a focus on breathing. Sifu Gary Wragg also demonstrates the advanced 54 Round Form.
