T'ai Chi Ch'uan ("tie-chee-chwan") is an ancient Chinese martial art. This system incorporates exercise, meditation, and self-defense into a flowing series of gentle movements and postures. T'ai Chi's hallmarks of non-violence, harmony, yielding, and neutralization are based on Taoist philosophy, demonstrated by the yin-yang symbol. Experience serenity, balance, strength, and flexibility through this life-enriching path of rejuvenation and self-actualization!

Your instructor, Eric Reiss, has practiced the art of T'ai Chi Ch'uan since 1973. He apprenticed for twelve years and was certified to teach under the guidance of a famous master, Dr. Marshall Ho'o. In 1999, Mr. Reiss founded the Silk Tiger School of T'ai Chi Ch'uan. He continues teaching throughout the Piedmont.
