➤ Two long forms of Tai Chi are taught as a complete course in internal energy arts.

The Yang Cheng Fu long form. Students undertake this form first before progressing to the historical long form. Successful completion of the Yang Cheng Fu long form is required before admission to training in the Yang Lo Chan long form.
The  Yang Lo Chan historical long form. This is a more complex and dynamic Tai Chi form, requiring thorough grounding in the Yang Cheng Fu form to undertake it. The complexity of this form "explains", in a practical sense, the intentions behind the movements in the Yang Lo Chan long form Tai Chi.

➤ You are also taught Qi Gong standing postures. Qi Gong builds internal energy - Qi, which the moving Tai Chi (aka Tai Ji) articulates throughout the body in precise ways.
➤ Together, the Qi Gong and Tai Chi are beneficial to health, self defense, and longevity.

The Tai Chi Styles taught at Feel Good Space

Yang Cheng Fu style - "contemporary" form. Developed by Yang Cheng Fu during the early 1900s to make Tai Chi more accessible and achievable by a wider part of the community, primarily for their self defense during troubled times in China.

Yang Lo Chan - historical form, named after its developer, who was also Yang Cheng Fu's grandfather. An older Tai Chi form. More complex. More dynamic. You learn this after completing the Yang Cheng Fu form to a standard that includes not only remembering the sequence of movements, but also capacity in ever deeper subtleties.
