"Tai Chi will be an important part of global awakening" Eckart Tolle

Tai Chi Chuan (Supreme Ultimate Fist) has been described as Moving Meditation, Moving Medication and is an internal Martial Art.

Tai Chi has something for everyone with proven stress reducing and health benefits. Many Yoga practitioners have commented on how Tai Chi complements their practice.

The ultimate stated purpose of Tai Chi in the ancient classics is to acquire "Sheng Ming" - Spiritual Illumination, maybe not in a weekend! - but -" A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" Lao Tsu.

The Single Step on this weekend course will be an introduction to the principles of Tai Chi Chuan and Qi Gong ("energy work").
