Mission: Hiromi T'ai Chi is a non-profit organization dedicated to teaching and promoting the health benefits and art of T'ai Chi Ch'uan in the Charlottesville community. We offer training in the Cheng-Ming System as taught by Grandmaster Wang Shu-Jin as well as other related internal martial arts.
T'ai Chi Chuan (Taijiquan) is a martial art characterized by soft, slow flowing movements of the torso and arms coordinated with weight shifts and steps. It emphasizes relaxation, and is a form of meditation in motion. The benefits of T'ai Chi Ch'uan include improved balance, muscle tone and stress reduction.
Ch'i Kung (Qi Gong) is an ancient Chinese system of self-cultivation developed specifically for protecting health and promoting vitality, while cultivating spiritual awareness and insight. It consists of a series of fluid movements coordinated with the breath to increase flow of energy throughout the body and the mind while standing or sitting.
Our teaching philosophy is that these arts can best be passed down in a teacher-to-student relationship. We provide one-on-one instruction to all students. Classes are ongoing and students can start any time, and proceed at their own pace.
