What we do - our focus

The health and well-being of our participants are paramount. We will try to guide individuals to achieve comfort and strength through tai chi movement.

We support and follow the legacy of our teacher, Mr. Moy Lin Shin. Mr. Moy created a tai chi form and ethic that continues to be practiced by us and many others around the world. We are all practicing Tai Chi for our health and well-being. So that others may benefit, we continue to pass on and share our learned knowledge. This is our journey

Our Teacher

Mr. Moy Lin Shin (1931-1998) is our teacher and the founder of the style of Tai Chi that we practice. We practice tai chi for our health, both to maintain and possibly improve our well-being. Mr. Moy's legacy guides us as we seek to further our understanding of how tai chi helps our bodies, minds, and spirits.

It is not just about the choreography of a set – it is seeking how best to accomplish the choreography to be open to the benefits.

There are so many layers to tai chi and the best part is digging into deeper layers. It truly is a journey of discovery.

We help others to gain an understanding of our discoveries and methods so that they can help themselves sooner. Understanding what makes our bodies move in a fashion that requires less effort but is more efficient is a goal. Tai Chi is not about working or practicing hard. By acknowledging even minor changes and feelings, we can derive so much more from our practice. The quality of the intention of movement makes the biggest difference. When we hear statements like, “Wow, that is easier, it doesn’t hurt, or it seems too simple”, we wish to celebrate. It does not need to be difficult to be effective.

However, we try to instill that doing the form is not the end. It is only the start of the journey to understand and increase body awareness. With that, we try to maximize benefits by suggesting more effective means and intentions for achieving the movements.
