Tai Chi is the tradename of Anthony Fidler.
Tai Chi means different things to different
practitioners.
The goal of a student is to find a good teacher with
values similar to their own.
I am
particularly interested in the therapeutic and
meditative aspects of Tai Chi.
I believe when taught in a sensitive and appropriate manner Tai Chi has
much to offer people both physically and mentally.
It is
far more than
just a relaxation exercise though this on its own justifies the
activity.
The
postures and movements have
an implicit naturalness and harmony to them, which when performed
reasonably well help the release of tension structures from the
body, and hence increase the energy and health of the person.

Emotions
are attached to these tension structures
and so in its own way Tai Chi, while relaxing the body structure has an
emotional impact on the practitioner, creating more space for the
individual to deal with reality in a calm and peaceful way.
At the same time it requires
conscious movements all the time, and with effort this increases
concentration skills and body awareness making you more alive.
My Tai Chi Credentials:
My
experience of Tai Chi started in a minimal way at University in 1990,
and then restarted in a life changing way in 1997 when I encountered a
teacher in Southern China.
For me this was an instant
revelation, of something I wanted to bring
into my life whatever the effort required.
I practiced every day from then on and returned to China
specifically to study in 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2003 and
2005, 2006 and 2007
each time staying for 2, 3 or 4 months and having one to one classes
each
day, generally twice a day. My average training time would be four
hours a day, sometimes six.
I now practise Yang and Chen Style Tai Chi and offer teaching in
Simplified Yang Style.
So why not learn
Tai Chi....
