Two Taichi Workshop/Qigong Retreats - Two Unique Masters:

July 21 - 23 Taichi Alchemy-Yang Cheng Fu’s 13 Original Postures with Rick Barrett

Yang Cheng Fu’s 13 Original Postures is a short, but extremely powerful taijiquan form. It is valuable to experienced taiji practitioners who feel they are ready to take their practice to a new level, and to beginners as well. If you are experienced and feel you are not rooted, fully present or energetically connected throughout your whole form, then you may just find this workshop is what you are looking for in order to reach the effortless power that is promised in the classics. At higher levels, taijiquan promises not just good health and robust vitality, but also radical Presence, effortless power, and an opportunity to resonate with the Tai Ji, the undifferentiated Wholeness that is the Ground of Being. Most important, it shows us how to bring all this into the lived life.

In over a quarter century of teaching, Rick Barrett, author of Taijiquan: Through the Western Gate and Finding You in a World of It. has always tried to shorten the on-ramp to high-level Kongfu by simplifying and de-mystifying the language of internal martial arts, understanding that the work still has to be done, but the journey is more satisfying when you know what you are going for and how to get there. His 40 years of taijiquan research has been driven by a radical empiricism: Does it do what it says it does? Can I FEEL it? Can it be shared with others? Can it be replicated? Does it lead to further discovery? “Right from the start, I want people to not just be able to successfully execute the movements of a form, but to also feel their qi, their jin, and their root. Not just awakening to the energy that animates all things, but learning to use it effectively”- Rick Barrett. Yang Cheng Fu’s 13 Original Postures was taught to Rick by Master Yang Fukui, who learned from his great grand uncle, Zhai Yongwen. http://eastover.com/taichi-alchemy.html

"This is a great practice for body, mind and spirit. It is holy; it is healthful; it is scientific. Yet, there are no words. Just do the movements, memorize the movements, do the breathing exercises before. Do not argue, do not think. Just do, and you will see results. How did the ancient Chinese discover this?"

— Four Tusk Njoku "Njoku" (Philadelphia, USA) May 11, 2007

"Because of the great interest in Qigong in the west, it is important to have bona fide teachings by bona fide teachers. Too often students wind up learning a little bit of this form and a little bit of another, while never learning any complete system. This series is a good example of a serious and gifted instructor who offers a complete system of healing qigong to the serious student."

“FLYING PHOENIX QIGONG” with Master Terry Dunn is a 3-5 day intensive Qigong workshop.

powerful medical Qigong (chi kung) system created more than 400 years ago by Taoist sage named Feng Teh of Ehrmei Mountain in Xichuan province in western China. Flying Phoenix Qigong is a complete Taoist monastic system of hygienics --comprised of standing and seated, stationary and moving meditations that imparts a wide range of salient health benefits: increased respiratory power, improved circulation and metabolism, well-regulated sleep and resulting higher energy levels, improved neuro-muscular function and balance, strengthened immunity, increased bone strength, and the allostatic reversal of many signs of aging. Besides its splendid health benefits Flying Phoenix Qigong training so sublimely integrates mind and body to a higher level of structural sensitivity--by bringing all the organ functions under the regulation of the subconscious mind—that it stabilizes full absorption-jhana and trains one-pointedness (samadhi) so that the practitioner’s mind easily rests in the second and third jhanic states.
