Push hands, learning to understand and play
May 16 & 17
Fredericksburg, VA
Sifu William C. Phillips of Patience Tai Chi (Patiencetaichi.com), one of Professor Cheng's students in NYC and the most junior student to be given teaching duties at the NY Shr Jung in Professor Cheng's lifetime, is offering a seminar in push hands in Fredericksburg, VA, Saturday and Sunday, May 16 and 17 from 10 AM to 2 PM, both days. Sifu Charles R. Riley (info at ArtTechnology.com/TaiChi/) will be hosting the event at the Fredericksburg Parks and Recreation facility.
Saturday's instruction will include neutralization exercises necessary to develop the softness, flexibility leg strength and listening skills for push hands, followed by common neutralizations, and neutralizations hidden in the Cheng Man Ch'ing form.
Sunday will begin with three basic pushes and move on to the counter pushes which arise out of the neutralizations; the structure and relaxation required for pushing and foothold; and the geometry of a successful push.
The fee is $150 for the weekend event, Saturday and Sunday. paid before 5/1
and 200 if paid after 5/1.
One day preregistered for before 5/1 is $90
and after 5/1 is 130.
In addition to the push hands seminar, all are invited to practice Master Liu's Tai Chi and meditation techniques from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. at the same location. You may join Sifu Riley in practicing Master Da Liu's form, which is the same as Professor Cheng's, but with some additional Yang style movements. The meditation techniques are Taoist techniques passed on by Master Liu. Sifu Riley began his study of Tai Chi with Master Da Liu in 1980 and has practiced and taught since that time.
Push Hands is an exercise performed by two people who are attempting to improve their Tai Chi skills. Practicing the Tai Chi solo form teaches one to remain balanced, focused and relaxed while in motion.
Only through the practice of Tai Chi Push Hands does one improve these abilities while in physical contact with another human being. To be balanced and relaxed while in contact with another person who is moving is a difficult task. Attainment of this ability opens the door to mastery of martial skill through Tai Chi Chuan.

A web page will be set up shortly at Patiencetaichi.com to take preregistrations.
