Wudang Tai Chi NYC

I was brought to Master Sifu’s class by a friend on a lark– I never thought it would be something so compelling that I would immediately sign up for a series of classes. Although I am a beginner, Sifu shows tremendous patience in reviewing the forms. He makes adjustments in the forms according to students’ abilities, but always encourages me to push just a little harder, and in the four months that I have been practicing, I have seen definite, significant improvement in my balance and flexibility. As I have improved, Sifu has become more demanding (in the best way), always correcting my alignments, postures, and flows of motion, always keeping me aspiring to the next series of gorgeous moves. Most importantly, he has a sense of humor, and we laugh in class, while never losing focus. He gives each student individual attention, critical for a proper understanding of the very mentally rigorous forms we practice
Compared to the handful of other tai chi classes I have taken, Master Sifu is a gem. If a challenging but not intimidating environment is for you, one where you will sweat, run, don’t walk to Wudang tai chi.

I truly enjoy Wudang tai chi classes. The movements during tai chi practice are soft, gentle and graceful. I can bring back my focus into my body and release my daily stress. Also since tai chi practice my body feels somehow stronger and more flexible. Master Yan Yu is a great teacher who practiced with excellence martial arts since childhood. I highly recommend Master Yan Yu’s tai chi classes :)
