Course Description

      The "Zhang San Feng Tai Chi 13 Shì Review Class" is designed for both new and returning students seeking to immerse themselves in or revisit the complete routine. Rooted in the foundational principles of the “Earthing Tai Chi,” project and a deep understanding of the fundamental framework of “Zhang San Feng Tai Chi 13 Shì," participants will experience the grounding influence of this project on their spirit, body, and mind during the sessions.

      Learning traditional routines is a gradual process that requires patience and dedication. Rather than rushing to master the routine quickly, participants are encouraged to embrace the leisurely pace of a "Tai Chi life." Whether amidst the vibrant spring, balmy summer, or crisp autumn days, exploring the secrets of Zhang San Feng's "13 potentials" for "prolonging life" offers a fresh and enriching experience.

      As time passes inexorably, each step forward becomes integral to the journey. While the sentiment of Lao Tzu's aphorism, "a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step," may differ slightly from the adage "mighty oaks from little acorns grow," the importance of taking that first step towards a goal remains paramount.

      This course fosters opportunities for students to optimize their learning experience by observing their classmates' movements and valuing the significance of communication—both with oneself and with others and nature.

       Throughout the course, we will delve into various concepts related to Zhang San Feng, exploring topics such as the distinctions between classical Taoism and religious Taoism, perspectives on vegetarianism from Lao Tzu different Taoist branches, and the relationship between Tao Te Ching and Taoism.
