Tai Chi Chuan

Hi, my name is Hu. I had Kung fu and Tai Chi experience In my lifetime, Kung fu for 10 years, and Tai Chi for about 10 years.I learned Tai Chi when I was in China, and it was a very traditional training way, it was boring and we will practice one same movement over and over again, don't give me wrong, the time you spend, worth it. but it was too long to build the skill, and I am not sure if I could teach the same way in here, I started teaching Tai Chi since 2015 in the U.S, the very first day of the class I told my clients, you learn Tai Chi with me, and I learn how to teach Tai Chi with you, after teaching this many years, I have got a lot of experience how to teach people, the most thing that continually encourages me to teach Tai Chi is the improvement from the clients, they become happier and much more enjoy it after they practice Tai Chi, their's body coordination and balance ability got so much better, and I enjoy to see that, I always told my clients I am not the instructor, I am the sharer, and I like to share my Tai Chi experience with all of you, because I do enjoy to see the good things start happening to everyone.

Tai Chi Instructor

Chinese

Tai chi is "Meditation in motion". My personal experience of Tai Chi Chuan have two different ways training model. First is Zen Fit, for the people who don't want spend a yearly time focus on tai chi forms, so Zen Fit is best option, Zen Fit base on Tai Chi Chuan, we only focus on few movements but mostly we focus on improve balance,body coordinate ability great option for beginner level. Second is Tradition Tai Chi, this type of training normally take a little long time to get into the great Tai Chi experience,but for the time you spend, worth it, not only learn Tai Chi forms, you will also learn Tai Chi skill, culture, such as Ying/Yang, some of people very into the Tai Chi Culture,they enjoy to spend more time to learn Tai Chi. Also I have Tai Chi for senior and Tai Chi practice on chair.

Cheng is absolutely amazing at what he does. I am a disabled veteran and struggle to stand and walk at times. I loved how gentle Cheng's approach to getting me to move my body and even accommodate when I needed to sit without missing a beat. It was amazing! It was relaxing and fun to me and I would definitely do the class again.

I was apprehensive starting my first Tai chi class as a plus size woman.  Yet, while this review may be premature, I am a good judge of character.  Cheng had no idea what a morale booster he gave me when he said, "you look good." that let me know, I had the right instructor.  I settled in with ease and didn't feel paranoid or self conscious at all,,  Cheng is a very thorough and patient instructor.  He welcomes questions, doesn't make you feel uncomfortable and explains very well what needs to be done.  He gives great examples to help you understand his instructions to help you complete what he says.  I may have a ways to go with my balance and remembering everything he says to do, however, I am committed to making me a better me and I feel Chen has definitely gotten me off to a great start.  I recommend him highly.

Cheng taught a wonderful Qigong class (beginner level) to a large class we had as part of our company's AAPI Heritage Month celebrations. He was very easy to communicate with and made the planning process very smooth. He perfectly planned the hour we had scheduled and led us through a relaxing class. I hope we can do another class in the future!

I have been studying Yang 24 Tai Chi weekly with Hu for almost a year. It has been such a great experience, and I can't recommend him highly enough! 

I look forward to training weekly with Hu, it has become part of a schedule that I look forward to. Learning Tai Chi has helped me to incorporate a healthier lifestyle into my daily routine (practicing) throughout the week. I feel like Tai Chi is an exercise that will be beneficial for the rest of my life- developing and enjoying for many years now that I have a solid foundation. 

I have almost learned the entire Yang 24 form (about 9 months so far), and will probably complete all 24 forms in the next couple months. 

Hu is very helpful and has a fun personality. He is punctual, considerate, and a great communicator. He is generous with his knowledge, and seems happy to focus on various aspects of Tai Chi as they are relevant to the study at hand, ranging from the traditional roots of Tai Chi, Tai chi for health and fitness, energy and movement, balance, proper technique, etc... 

Hu is an extremely competent teacher, and he creates a safe place to learn. He is patient and thoughtful in his instruction. As far as I know, Hu is an expert in Kung Fu, Chen Style Tai Chi, and Yang Style Tai Chi.

I look forward to continued study with Hu following this course.

Hu is an excellent instructor. He is skilled and patient, and is able to tailor lessons to suit the individual. I am taking continuing lessons at this time, and looking forward to learning Yang 24 eventually.

In honor of Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we had Hu join a company-wide event for tai chi lessons. 

Hu was a great instructor. He broke down the poses so even beginners like me can follow easily. 

Our company is completely 100% remote. Learning tai chi definitely helps our posture and lack of movement from sitting in front of our computers all day. Our entire staff loved the session. Thank you so much, Hu!

He took things nice and slow so I could follow. Great class

Hu was kind and extremely knowledgeable. The communication leading up to the class was awesome. The class itself was wonderful. Step-by-step instructions a great introduction to Tai Chi. I hope to take more classes from Hu in the future.

Hu is amazing. He is patient, kind and friendly. He takes time to explain how and why the Tai-chi movements work. He creates a safe and relaxing environment even online. I wholeheartedly recommend his classes.

We have had Hu working with my company as a way for work life balance during the pandemic since June.  He brings such a calm over us.  The movements are for anyone at any level and so easy to get us out of our daily routine into a relaxing one.  Hu is very excited to share his practice with us each week.  You will NOT be disappointed.

Just had my first lesson, Hu was patient, calming, clear and very helpful all around - looking forward to my next session.

Hu Cheng is a great instructor.  His calm demeanor throughout the lessons is relaxing.  Hu Cheng is very easy to communicate with and is also professional.  Signing up for more classes for another 4 weeks thanks so him.

Commencing 起勢

 Chen Style Tai Chi is one of the oldest and most traditional forms of Tai Chi, a Chinese martial art that emphasizes slow, deliberate movements, breathing techniques, and mindfulness. It was created by Chen Wangting, a Ming Dynasty general, in the 17th century.

This style is characterized by its unique combination of slow and fast movements, explosive power, and low stances. It incorporates intricate techniques like silk-reeling movements, which involve spiraling and coiling actions aimed at cultivating internal strength and promoting balance.

Chen Style Tai Chi is often practiced for its health benefits, including improved flexibility, balance, and stress reduction. It's also valued for its martial applications, as its movements can be adapted for self-defense purposes. Its rich history and deep-rooted philosophy make it a popular choice for those seeking physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.
