We offer an introductory, four-class progressive course (October 16, 23, 30, and November 6) for those interested in trying Taiji Boxing. The incredible $60 ticket price covers all four classes, you can pay through Eventbrite or in person at school.
We will cover the following topics:
- Foundation qigong sequence, correct breathing, and synchronization of breathing with movement for relaxation and qi development.
- Standing meditation and seven external and internal alignments. Standing meditation is an ancient technique for improving posture and emotional health.
- Methods of explosive striking (fa-jing) at vulnerable points (dim mak) presented at a basic level. These techniques improve self-defense chances against a bigger opponent.
- Escapes from grabs and chokes as a part of your self-defense skill set.
Before our introductory course starts, we will hold a social event on October 11th where you can meet our instructors and students and watch a video about the modern view on Dim Mak produced by World Taiji Boxing Association. For those who register for the course at this social event, we have a special $40 discount price for the entire introductory course.
Fun fact: dim mak is mentioned in the first Suicide Squad movie!
