Chris Worcester has been practicing & teaching Tai Chi Chih since 1986 in and around the Truckee/Tahoe communities. Chris was accredited in Tai Chi Chih and Seijaku, an advanced form of the Tai Chi Chih, by the forms originator & Tai Chi Chuan master Justin Stone. Along with the Tai Chi Chih Chris brings humor, spirit & grace into the movements through a deep sense of collaboration with the mystery which manifests itself. Having practiced many forms of meditation, peace walking with Buddhist monks, praying with Native Americans, Oneness with local devotees, variety is ever present in his class. Through the cyclical nature of the human experience, Chris keeps coming home to the simple profound ways of Tai Chi Chih. Working with Renewable Energy, Solar & Wind power by day and sharing in the balancing, joyous energy of the Tao during evening classes lends to his creativity. Living with respect for the earth through a simple way of life, off the grid, practicing what he shares. As Justin Stone would say, practice, practice, practice is our sure way back to our basic nature, intrinsic joy. Contact: chris@solarwindworks.com |
