• Yang Lu Chan Taiji form.
  principals of movement. This can be applied to any Taiji form you are practicing, we will be using the Yang Lu Chan Form, taking postures from this form and having a look into the body mechanics of how to move, to create power, from a balance of structure and flow, also looking at how the correct muscular activation in the form is how we get the energy to flow.
  The main focus here will be the slow movement of the form, but we will also cover the Fa-jing aspects as well.
  
  
• Bagua Circular form
  Taking a few sets of movements in the same way as explained for the YLC form above.
  
  
• Small San Sau and Foundations of Combat.
  Here we take the training method of Small San Sau, and see what it is we are learning from this form, and how to apply it to real fighting, as well as looking at other Foundation Skills for fighting.
  Students can do the drills either at a slow and easy pace to better understand their own body and improve the knowledge of the form practice,
  or those who are up for it can put in more speed and pressure to see how Taiji works as a fighting art.
