West Norfolk Tai Chi

Classes in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire with Chris Rabicano

Chris spent 12 years as a private student of Jim Uglow studying both Hung Kuen Kung-Fu and Tai Chi Chuan then spent another 5 years as a private Tai Chi student of Herman Chan Pensley. Both Herman and Jim were students of Master Chu King Hung (see the lineage on the intro page).

The West Norfolk club is run along traditional lines but in order to cater for students of all abilities the classes are not as strenuous as those taught by Jim and Herman. As students progress they will be taught the Yang style long form in detail with applications, pushing hands, weapons forms, breathing exercises and the Pa-Kua form and, for those that wish to take part, the more traditional methods of training.

"The principles of Tai Chi based on Yin and Yang apply not only to the art itself but to the universe in all it's manifestations. I hope Tai Chi will help my students learn to observe, think for themselves, be healthy and 'live in eternal springtime'. - Chris"
