Professional Taiji Course

Since November 2005 the Buqi Institute International offers an international education for Taijiquan and Qigong (Qigong or Chi Kung is the Chinese word for energy exercises.) This education is aimed at Taiji- and Qigong teachers who wish to take their skills to a higher level, as well as for potential new teachers who wish to obtain a good foundation by learning the essence of the Taiji principles.

The courses take place in Nijmegen (the Netherlands) and covers different aspects of Taijiquan:

• Standing exercises
• Taiji 37 form
• Sword exercises (Taiji Jian)
• Pushing Hands (Taiji Tuishou)
• Partner exercises (Taiji Sanshou)

This education offers students the possibility to acquire a deep insight of the Taiji philosophy and they learn to work with the trinity of body art, martial art and healing art.

In the second year the students can do an internship with one of the current teachers of the Buqi Institute who give weekly training sessions. In the end there will be a practical examination.

This education is of course open to anyone who wishes to improve his skills or health and not only for those who wish to be a Taiji teacher.

The courses will be taught by Ddr. Shen Hongxun, Master Shen Jin, Master Shen ZhengYu and other teachers of the Buqi Institute.
