OVERALL EMPHASIS OF BOB'S SCHOOL
All classes focus on learning and understanding how to make our bodies healthy and strong by being naturally relaxed, aligned and aware using animal named movements and the Tai Chi form to accomplish this. In addition, martial art applications are explained and explored so the student will understand how relaxation, good posture, energy and breath work together to make a strong physical presence. Classes are geared toward adults, in other words, only an open mind, a willingness to learn and a sense of responsibility for one's own training is required. Each student progresses at his or her own pace -- with some encouragement from me. There are no uniforms, no long-term contracts, no belts, and no tests, however, comfortable clothing and flat shoes with a rubber sole are advisable. Class fees are due monthly. |

It is also an effective martial art.

Qi Gong is taught in all classes. Qi is the Chinese term for the energy of the body. In Chinese medical theory, the free circulation of Qi maintains a healthy body. As passed down from Master Qian Zhao Hong, a simple, safe and effective Qi-gong form is taught.
Chan Si (Spiral) Taiji Form
Spiral Tai chi promotes stable alignment, a calm mind, energy or Qi circulation through out the body. It combines the different styles of tai chi into a coherent series of movements focusing on the goal of improving health and martial arts efficiency. It seeks to cull out the mistakes that have crept into the modern versions of the other tai chi forms.
Spiral
tai chi is performed slowly focusing on internal spiral movements in
the body and having a tangible understanding of how natural alignment
will improve your health, mind, and martial response.
