my approach to tai chi

"Yang style Tai Chi is taught according to the Tai Chi Classics and in the tradition of Cheng Man-ch'ing and Benjamin Pang Jeng Lo. Although emphasis of the training is put on the health benefits, martial applications are sometimes discussed, as it can make it easier to remember the correct execution of a movement. The curriculum starts with studying the hand form, after which people can choose to add pushing-hands, sword and sword-fencing to their Tai Chi. Focus is not on learning several forms, but on improving the form and combining the external form with internal exercises."
