2010 Special Classes
Saturdays
11:40 - 12:40 p.m.
The new Saturday classes are structured in a series of sequential
sessions designed to build on each other.
"Taiji Matching
Set (Fighting Set)"
January 9 - March 20, 2010
The Yang style two-person matching set is famous for its
effective utilization of the various bare-hand skills that are inherent in the
classical Yang style. Understanding of the matching set is required to practice
Taijiquan effectively with a deepened understanding as to the essence of this
amazing martial art form. The two person choreographed drills simulate real
fighting situations, using softness to overcome hardness. Students will learn
to use the Taiji postures from this form in the way that they were originally
intended. The matching set is fun to practice, yet humbling in the way it
reveals the depths of the art.
"Taiji Ball Form"
March 27 - April 17
Paul Mahoney will teach the wooden ball form that he created.
This short form is easy to learn, yet it incorporates many of the important ball
patterns that are most crucial for improving Taiji movement. Once the student
is able to move well with the ball, the individual form will also improve
measurably.
Ball training starts when a student starts learning Tai Chi.
"Chinese Fan
Boxing"
April 24 - May 29
David Bodoh will bring back the popular and lively Fan Boxing
to Great Bay. The six week class will include the study of the Fan Boxing
form. Students will practice some of the fan skills that are required to
practice the form correctly. David also plans to introduce several of the
martial applications of the fan.
Great Bay instructor David Bodoh practices a Fan form.
