Several people have approached the Headmaster about a program designed specifically for those who are seeking the health and toning benefits of Ch'i Gong and T'ai Chi Ch'uan without the rigors of combat or self defense training. To meet this need the Headmaster has designed a course which emphasizes breathing, balance and form.

The program includes:

Basic Warm-up Exercises
Taoist Ch'i Gong sets
Rooting Pine Ch'i Gong
Hsing I Ch'uan (Xing Yi Quan)
Pa Kua Chang (Ba Gua Jang)
Taste of T'ai Chi
Jian Hua T'ai Chi
Advanced Traditional Combined Form of T'ai Chi

Each element of the program has instructional books and tapes available. This course includes guest lecturers and instructors of therapeutic massage, health, nutrition and Chinese-based preventive medicine. It will also feature guest appearances from T'ai Chi Grand Master Bow Sim Mark, founder of the Chinese Wushu Research Institute and International T'ai Chi Gold Medalist. All students are automatically enrolled in the worldwide Bow Sim Mark T'ai Chi Arts Association. Dues are paid by the academy.
