Laojia Form

The Laojia Form is the 'Old Frame' of Chen Style Tai Chi. It is the original form, taught in the traditional way. 

​

There are 74 movements in the form which flow together to create a dynamic routine that showcases the wide variety of techniques in the Chen syllabus. 

​

We learn the form through repetition and refinement of the postures and transitions. Building on the learning from the foundations class, we incorporate slow silk reeling with explosive 'energy releases'
