We are very fortunate to have had passed down a complete martial training in the traditional vein, and every effort is made in the teaching to respect that. (The style origin / background can be found on the Origins Page).
We are very fortunate to have had passed down a complete martial training in the traditional vein, and every effort is made in the teaching to respect that. (The style origin / background can be found on the Origins Page). The overall curriculum is based upon a progressive learning of the five aspects of Tai Chi Chuan, as reflected in the school name, and explained in more detail in the next question below.
Students begin by learning the Hand Form (Wu-Cheng style) , firstly in a broken down “square form”, and progressing to the round form. This is a “long” form, typically lasting around 15 - 20 minutes during normal practice, and is the foundation of Tai Chi learning. A number of standing exercises are also introduced early in classes.
Originally established in Glasgow in 1984, classes have run continuously since then as part of the Five Winds School, introducing many students to the art in that time. A comprehensive curriculum covering various aspects of Tai Chi Chuan is available through regular bi-weekly classes, focus classes and seminars, giving students flexible options, and teaching of high quality. Based in the Glasgow west & north areas, students attend from around Glasgow and beyond. Beginners and more experienced students are welcome to attend. For those prepared to put in regular practice and dedicate the time & effort to learn and improve, then the benefits of Tai Chi Chuan can be very rewarding. If you think that's for you, then please have a look at our website, and get in touch.
Tai Chi is a complete system of movement that uses mind and body together to promote health and wellbeing.
The sequences I teach are yang style, and are short, circular and delicate forms, where the players learn the principles of tai chi: relaxation, breathing and focused intention.
Tai chi is a system of holistic body movement and gentle exercises based on an understanding of the dualistic nature (yin and yang) of the universe. Its primary goal is to achieve balance, harmony, tranquillity, and health.
