Great spring semester ...

Last class today with another wonderful group of students. Twenty-five received their certificates of completion. During the semester they learned sitting mediation, a joint routine to keep joints open and flexible, some basic taijiquan and the Eight Pieces of Brocade Qigong.
Already looking forward to the fall class with another twenty-five students already signed up!

Save the date ... Master Jesse Tsao in Cortland NY

Save the date! September 5-7, 2014 Taijiquan Master Jesse Tsao will be at SUNY Cortland NY. Friday evening Master Tsao will give a public lecture and demonstration. Saturday and Sunday Master Tsao will teach Chen Compact Mini Taijiquan routine. This routine will be a great "kick start" to taiji practice, and a beneficial shorter Chen routine for those new to Chen style. It will also be useful for those in different taiji styles to "cross-train."

Friday Public Lecture is free. Two day workshop is free for Cortland students, $100 for Cortland Faculty and Staff, and $200 general public.

Stay tuned for more details.

A Great Semester

Today was the last class with my students learning Nine Piece Tai Chi Gong, as developed and taught by Master Jesse. The set is a nice introduction to taijiquan and qigong, using nine postures from different taiji styles with qigong breathing. It is so good to see students "get it" after fifteen weeks. I was so pleased with them today. Each student received a certificate of completion. Well done students!
