TAI CHI ( Taiji ) SOLO FORMS are dance like, choreographed "Sets" of shapes and movements which train and strengthen the body, mind and "Qi" ( Bioenergy ) in more effective ways to function and move about on planet Earth. The "Form" provides full range of motion training for the body in the context of Structurally Sound Grace and Power of Movement, Bio-Energy Cultivation and Effective Self Defense.
The YANG STYLE of TAI CHI CHUAN ( Taijiquan ) is the most popular style of tai chi ( taiji ) in the world. This is primarily due to its ease of learning and its health benefits as exercise. It is also a very powerful and effective method of training for self and other defense, although those who know how to train this aspect are rare.
12-LEVEL PROGRAM of INSTRUCTION
Pacific Light & Power - Internal Martial Arts offers
a twelve level program of instruction, guidance and training that systematically advances students through the maze of material and ongoing changes that come with the practice of Chinese Internal Martial arts.
The 12-Levels are, in turn, divided into three Degrees.
Degree 1 contains the first five levels of training. Each level includes learning a section of the Tai Chi Chuan form or set, two Qigong sets focused to develop the abilities required at that level, and some Tui Shou and San Shou (the basic interactive skills relevant to the self/other defense aspects or "Applications" of Tai Chi Chuan).
Degree II includes the next 4 levels of training and focuses more into Interactive training, including more advanced Tui Shou and San Shou techniques, the 2-person Tai Chi San Shou set, and a variety of traditional Weapons (such as Sword, Saber, Staff, Cane, etc. The Tai Chi "Long Form" is learned. Students are also introduced to the sister internal martial arts of Xing Yi Quan (Hsing I Chuan) and Baguazhang (Pa Kua Chang). Students also advance through assisting with the instruction of lower level students as requested by the Instructor.
Degree III includes the last 3 levels of training and prepares advanced students to Master these Arts, to be ready to teach and pass the information effectively on to others, and ultimately to become Masters in their own right.
