Welcome to Yuang Chi School of Tai ChiThe Yuang Chi School of Tai Chi was formed by Stuart Hemming who has been teaching Tai Chi at Grantham College and other locations since 1996.
The Yuang Chi School of Tai Chi is a relaxed environment where students of differing backgrounds, ages and occupations join together to learn and practice the art of Tai Chi in a friendly group.
ClassesThe classes are open to anyone over the age of 16. Under 16s will only be accepted in to the class if accompanied by a parent or guardian.
There are two classes taught at the Yuang Chi School of Tai Chi. The first is for beginner and the other for improvers.
The beginner's class is open to anyone who has not done Tai Chi before and to students who have yet to complete Part One of the form. The class is also open to those who may have successfully completed Part One but who feel they are not yet ready to move on.
The improver's class is open to those students who have completed Part One of the form and will include instruction in Parts Two and Three as well as the 'Simplified Form'.
Both classes will include also include Chi Kung and other related exercises.
Tai Chi
Tai Chi (or taiichuan as it is also written) is a form of martial art that has developed over hundreds of years. Tai Chi is, unlike martial arts like Karate and Kung-fu, practiced in a slow and deliberate manner.
Whilst Tai Chi is a martial art it is not taught with any particular emphasis on its martial side. Many, if not most, people practice Tai Chi for a number of other reasons including stress relief, increased fitness and the simple pleasure of learning something new.
Chi Kung
Chi Kung (or qigong) is a form of exercise used to help with focus, strength and concentration. Some Chi Kung exercises are completed with the person doing them completely stationary others, like those in the ba duan jin follow a cycle or pattern.
Chi Kung exercises are often used in class as a way of warming up as well as getting students in to the correct frame of mind for the lesson to come.
Ba Duan Jin
The ba duan jin or "8 Silk Brocades" is a set of eight exercises, each of which is repeated 8 times, that is designed to loosen the body in preparation for other exercise. It also encourages one's energy to flow throughout the body.
