“The exercises and silk reeling and standing pose provide a calming and mindful foundation for learning the forms. These choreographed movements look simple but are in fact subtle and quite intricate. There’s great satisfaction in getting the flow of movement right.
“I’d really recommend this class!”
— Adele Geras
“Learning Chen style Taiji was my dream for a very long time. It is elegant, sophisticated and powerful in its own way. It helps you to really ‘inhabit’ in your body and can be considered as a meditation through exercise. Siva is patient and detailed-oriented. He adjusts his instructions according to students’ level and need.”
— Liang Shou-en
