Winter Weekend 2025

A great opportunity to immerse yourself in all things Tai Chi & Qigong!

The Tai Chi Space Winter Weekend is back, and I’m excited to invite you to join and give you more information about what we will be covering.

Thursday 4th December - Sunday 7th December  Winter Weekend 2025

The Building Gong Retreat

This years Winter Weekend is all about building ‘Gong’ into your practice. Gong as in Gong-fu or Kung-fu meaning embodying the skill and qualities of Tai Chi and Qigong. The week will cover the Wu 7 Short form, Nei gong mechanisms, Chen 83 form, push hands and applications.  This allows me to pass on the Wu Tai Chi 7 form as a small but comprehensive system. The practice includes a heavy amount of energy work (nei gong), body mechanics, push hands exercises, and clear and practical applications for each of the 7 moves, making it a complete system of practice that builds long lasting gong for health and martial arts.  Venue: TBA
