The Combined 48 Forms Brought Memories / Dr Lam Upcoming Workshops - https://mailchi.mp/tchi/2024-06-wne-880372 Every year around this time, I run a weekend training workshop for instructors of Better Health Tai Chi Chuan (BHTCC). This year they had chosen to explore the depth of the Combined 48 Forms. This brings back fond memories. BHTCC was founded by me and the base to launch Tai Chi for Health programs. The 48 Forms was my first exposure outside the traditional Yang forms.

This month, I have added many videos from the recent June 2024 Annual Workshop in Forest Grove, Oregon, to the Global Community.

Inspiration from our recent workshops | Dr Lam Tai Chi and Health Newsletter (July 2024) - I am looking forward to your response to the brilliant impromptu concert from Ben, composer of Tai Chi Music CD 2 and 3 (still coming along), the magical voices of Mark and Carissa, coordinated, joined and directed by Evan. They told me the music they chose has a tai chi flavour. What do you think? Should we look into the possibility of Music CD 4: Tai Chi Singing Music? see more https://mailchi.mp/tchi/dr-paul-lam-tai-chi-for-health-newsletter-jul-2024

My workshops tour in Europe and USA are exciting and rewarding. There were so many wonderful feedback and comments. Let me share one of them by Bob Werner regarding the new class Dancing Tai Chi. - https://mailchi.mp/drlamtaichiworkshops/2024-06-wne

I have been practising tai chi for 49 years, and over the last 30 years worked with teams of tai chi and medical colleagues to create 12 Tai Chi for Health programs.

In the recent 22nd Annual Tai Chi Workshop in USA, I shared 'My Tai Chi Journey'. I was so happy to have Carissa Coffindaffer join me with her beautiful singing.

➡️ My Tai Chi Journey | Online Tai Chi Lessons Bulletin (June 2024) I have just completed three workshops in the Netherlands and three in the USA (including the Annual June Workshop).

Today, we had the incredible Jerry Pearson, a retired professional dancer, choreographer, and dance professor, present about "Dancing Tai Chi," a new class he is offering at the USA Weeklong Tai Chi Workshop. 🎭✨

Jerry shared his fascinating process of creating the partnered movements. Just as Dr. Lam combined Eastern tai chi and Western medicine, Jerry has merged his two passions to craft something truly innovative and inspiring! 🌏💃🕺☯️

The opening meeting of day 2 of the USA Weeklong Workshop was inspiring! ✨ Highlights included a talk by MT Nina Zeldin, the USTCC Scholarship announcements, a video welcome from TCHI Chair Dr Raymond Lau, and a beautiful demo by the Senior Trainers.

In excitement for the start of all the Dr. Paul Lam workshops here are a bunch of happy snaps from last year's workshops!!!
If you're attending tell us what about the workshops you're most looking forward to!

Looking back over last 30 years / Dr Lam Upcoming Workshops - I love all modes of sharing, though the in-person workshops give me more opportunities to share personal energy and some in-dept understanding of inner principles. That is probably why I am always more excited to conduct in-person workshops. Hope to see you in Netherland and Oregon workshops coming up. https://mailchi.mp/drlamtaichiworkshops/2024-05-wne

Feeling the Anthropocene Through Tai Chi 🌿

"I feel with my body, with my blood. Feeling all these trees, all this Country... you feel it, you can look, but feeling... that make you." - Big Bill Neidjie, Gagudja Elder

Indigenous Australians have lived in harmony with the environment for millennia. Their philosophy of co-existence offers valuable lessons as we navigate the challenges of the Anthropocene.

Sybil Wong, a Tai Chi practitioner and instructor, explores the practice as a moving meditation to connect with the environment on a deeper level.

"As my energy, qi, blends with that of the environment, I sense and feel myself to be a part of the environment around me... I am calm and relaxed; I feel loved and accepted; I belong here."

Read Sybil's full article to learn more about her experience and how Tai Chi can help us cultivate a more harmonious relationship with our planet.
