Why Choose Us?

The teachers of The School of T'ai Chi Chuan as guided by The T'ai Chi Foundation present the best in T'ai Chi instruction. Teaching for 30 years, our School follows a unique teaching philosophypreserving the lineage and tradition of this ancient art while presenting it in a modern, easy-to-learn method.

Team Teaching

The hallmark of our school is team-teaching. With team-teaching we avoid the distraction of any ego trip that degrades many dojos and schools of the martial arts. Our method provides the students with a friendly setting where the focus is on the clarity of the course material. Group classes cultivate the energy of the whole class so the learning process is both fun and faster. And with two or three instructors in a class, the students have both one teacher's movements they can follow and the attention of the other teacher to help guide the class and follow up on what the group needs in learning each movement of the form.

Certification

As a teaching school, our School prepares and certifies our instructors through intensive trainings each year. Coursework for our staff includes both precision in demonstrating the T'ai Chi form and a thorough grounding in T'ai Chi principles. Continued study helps the staff to maintain the highest standards as well as a consistency in method: students could study at any of our branches and receive the same careful attention to the principles and details of the art.

Unity

Following an older model of T'ai Chi history, many of our teachers could have branched out and started their own school. But by continuing to work together, our school's strength is much more than any independent instructor. The unity of the school preserves this living art and provides a bedrock for consistent growth into the future, serving all of humanity through the study and practice of T'ai Chi Chuan.
