Tai Chi Foundation Exercise
Classical exercises that contain all the
principles and practices of T’ai Chi.
Devised by masters of the art and taught to
inner door students, these exercises
improve fitness, cultivate internal energy
and develop a calm and relaxed body-mind.
They can be practiced without having to
learn the T’ai Chi form, though they do
complement form practice.

Chi Gong & Taoist Philosophical Meditation
Chi Gong
literally means “energy work” or “breath
work”. It assists in healing the body and
mind by clearing blockages and restoring
healthy energy. The Willow Tree School
focusses on Zhan Zhuang (Standing like a
Tree) practice, 8 brocades exercise and
various forms of medical Chi Gong. Taoist
meditation is a non-religious, philosophical
approach to health and inner peace,
utilising the principles of Lao Tzu’s Tao
Teh Ching. Unlike other forms of meditation,
we practice not only sitting but also moving
and standing meditation in conjunction with
the theory and practice of energy
development and health maintenance.

Tai Chi 37 Movement Form
Form Class begins at 8:30am. Come at 8am for
30 mins of meditation, free of charge. T’ai
Chi’s founders incorporated principles of
Chinese medicine, philosophy, self healing,
self defence and meditative practice into a
form that combines movement and stillness,
internal and external development. Tai Chi
concentrates on developing softness and
relaxing the body and mind to rediscover the
source of health in the human body. Although
shorter than many other T’ai Chi forms,
Professor Cheng’s 37 movement form contains
all of the deepest principles and teachings
of classical T’ai Chi and Chi Kung. Perfect
for all ages and levels of experience.

Meditation is a powerful tool. As the mind
quiets down, our spirits are revived and we
feel more in control of our lives.
Meditation can be applied to every aspect of
your life. Australian psychiatrist Dr
Ainslie Meares found a significant reduction
of stress and discomfort in his cancer
patients from using simple meditation
techniques. Many doctors now suggest that
their patients meditate as a regular
component of their health management
program. Heart disease, cancer, AIDS and
immune disorders, all show clinical
improvement from meditation practice.
Regular practice of meditation has been
shown to enhance immune function.
Research shows meditation has many benefits
such as:
* slowing down the aging process
* alleviating pain
* improving sleep
* lowering serum cholesterol level
* reducing bacteria levels in saliva thereby
fewer cavities
* increasing blood flow to brain making us
smarter
* better memory
