This is the sixth Toronto workshop I’ve attended. Every workshop has been packed with information, intense training and a few good laughs. We had some very special guests from Italy – Master Bon and Neresini. The two were very friendly and eager to learn and share. Hope they come back soon. Read more

Here are my notes:
- Anchor the hands, pull from the front foot, mid section, shoulder, and elbow. On the way out, hand leads the elbow, shoulder, front kua, rear kua, rear knee, and rear foot. Extend the hand fully to the maximum, and then somehow the energy will reverse itself.
- Everything comes from the foot.
- Find the fixed spot on the opponent or point in space, then rotate around it.
- Peg the rope 9 times, each section needs to be tight (with tension).
Toronto bound for a 4-day workshop on Chen Style Taijiquan Practical Method Thursday to Sunday. Contents:

I just had my third taiji workshop with Master Chen in the last weekend (May 22-23, 2010). I had an extreme great time in this workshop. I was really glad to have him confirmed my little improvement thus far, in particular: my yilu form is starting to take shape, and I am not moving my hand (or at least as much as before).I would need to continue to work hard, so that I don’t regress, and hopefully continue to improve.

We had 14 people at the workshop this time. Peter almost couldn’t make it. He went to Mexico on an emergency call on Thursday and was supposed to come back on Friday but go stuck in Houston. By lunch this morning, he made. What dedication! People came from Barrie and Brampton, Ontario. For the people in this province, this is not very far but still, To view an hour driving as nothing is indication of very serious commitment. Read more
