Discover Tai Chi Chuan Yang and Its 108 Movements

The Yang style Tai Chi Chuan is traditionally composed of 108 movements, structured into three distinct sections: Earth, Man, and Heaven. Each part represents a progressive stage in both technical complexity and symbolic meaning. Earth: This first stage is ideal for beginners and establishes the foundations of movement and posture. Rotations in this section are limited to 135°, making it easier to learn and assimilate the basic principles. The Earth section typically includes about 16 movements focused on grounding and stability. Man: The second phase introduces greater complexity, including two series of kicks and wider rotations that reach up to 180°. This section contains approximately 41 movements and serves as a bridge between the foundational work of the Earth and the advanced techniques of the Heaven section. Heaven: The final and longest part comprises about fifty movements, some of which require complex rotations up to 270°. This section emphasizes fluidity, advanced coordination, and the integration of all previous learning.

This tripartite structure (Earth–Man–Heaven) not only organizes the technical progression but also reflects the Taoist philosophy of harmony between the individual, the environment, and the cosmos.

An Ancient Martial Art for Balance and Vitality

Tai Chi Chuan is a Chinese internal martial art distinguished by its fluidity and depth. The Yang style, now the most widely practiced in the West, was developed by Taoist monks several centuries ago. By observing nature, they created "forms": sequences of movements reminiscent of combat, where each gesture is both supple and controlled. Unlike external martial arts, Tai Chi Chuan focuses on balance, grounding, and the circulation of vital energy, known as "Qi." There is no competition or confrontation here; the goal is to harmonize body and mind while strengthening inner power. Practice Tai Chi Chuan to develop your stability, improve your flexibility, and cultivate a calming energy in your daily life.

The Benefits of Tai Chi Chuan

Tai Chi Chuan is much more than a simple physical exercise; it is an ancient energy practice fully integrated into the system of traditional Chinese medicine. This discipline is one of the five main branches of Chinese medicine, alongside acupuncture, dietetics, herbal medicine, and Tui Na massage. Through the regular practice of slow, fluid, and precise movements, combined with deep breathing and mental focus, Tai Chi promotes the harmonious circulation of vital energy (Qi) and aims to balance both body and mind.

The benefits are numerous: physically, Tai Chi improves flexibility, balance, coordination, and muscle tone, while reducing joint pain and the risk of falls, especially among seniors. Mentally, it soothes stress and anxiety, encourages relaxation, concentration, memory, and self-confidence. This practice is also recognized for its preventive and therapeutic effects, particularly on cardiovascular health, chronic pain management, and sleep quality.

In summary, Tai Chi Chuan offers a holistic approach to well-being, providing lasting benefits for both body and mind.

My Approach and Teaching Method

Having taught Tai Chi and Qi Gong for several years, I have witnessed firsthand the physical and mental benefits these practices provide. Regular practice helps improve balance, vitality, and overall well-being. My goal is to share the teachings I have received with anyone seeking to refocus and strengthen their inner harmony. I make sure that everyone can progress at their own pace and become independent in their practice. To support this, I offer online Tai Chi and Qi Gong classes in the form of downloadable MP4 files. These courses include detailed explanations and are accessible to everyone, regardless of their starting level.
