Tai
Chi Chuan is form of moving meditation.
It
is also a form of martial arts.
In
martial arts training the practitioner reprograms the body so that
it becomes more efficient in combat situations. To be a strong
fighter, one must first improve their posture and coordination. The
internal energy system and psychological state must also be sound.
Tai Chi Chuan, as passed down from a qualified instructor, is the
most profound method in helping the practitioner to enhance these
key factors.
For
this reason I have set Tai Chi training as part of the training
programme for the full contact fighters of our school. So far our
full contact fighters have represented Great Britain to win a gold
medal at the European Championships of 28 member countries plus a
bronze and a gold medal at the Worlds Championships of 120 member
countries.
Although
taking up full contact competition is not the goal for most of us,
it is still important for the instructor to make sure they show
their students the correct way of practising Tai Chi in order to
obtain the maximum benefit.
Teaching
martial arts is a privilege.
Unfortunately, many instructors do not take martial arts teaching as
a personal duty and serious contribution to the society that our
children have to live.
We
book our cars in for a regular service to ensure all alignment and
management units are in order for the car to perform well, and to
last.
The
benefit of carrying out the repetition of performing the Tai Chi
sequence correctly has a similar outcome. Each time we enter into
empty mind by repeating the sequence, our energy flow is activated,
our system cleansed, our body repairs itself, our alignment is
adjusted, thus we are psychologically enhanced and philosophically
transformed.
We
become a more positive, appreciative, compassionate
person.
Experiments
have shown that whilst engaging in Tai Chi our brain produces a
tranquil brain wave. Many people in the East keep up this discipline
in order to live longer and look younger.
In
our society, many people spend their whole life working hard,
serving the society, and also to accumulate wealth. Sadly by the
time they are about to retire many find themselves too unhealthy to
be able to enjoy properly their retirement time or the wealth they
have accumulated.
The
syllabus of Wutan UK is composed with intention of contributing to
our society by helping us to live a healthier happy contented life.
Teaching martial arts has kept me healthy, that I have only had to
visit the G.P. 3 times in the last 30 years.
To
ensure that what the students are taught is genuine, and to receive
maximum benefit for their training, I have arranged for
·
Master
Wu to conduct seminars yearly in the UK.
·
A
monthly intensive training program at HQ for our instructor to
polish and advance their skills continually and understand our
syllabus properly.
