The Horsham group practises Wudang Tai Chi Chuan, also known as Practical Tai Chi Chuan. We teach traditional Tai Chi Chuan Hand Forms, Pushing Hands Drills, Weapon Forms, Self Defence Applications and Nei Gung exercises as taught by Cheng Tin-hung and his successor in the UK and Europe, Dan Docherty.
Wudang Tai Chi Chuan is practiced by thousands around the world and the Horsham group enjoys links and regular workshops with other instructors in Sussex and beyond.
People come to Tai Chi for many reasons. For some it is the fact that it is a martial art with empty hand and weapons training; for others it is because of the benefits for flexibility, strength and balance that the forms and movements can bring; and for some others it is the aesthetic and expressive nature of the slow, fluid movements of the hand forms.
We adapt classes to suit these differing interests, each of which in fact come to complement each other after practising for some time.
