peace Heaven and earth unite: the image of PEACE.
Thus the ruler
Divides and completes the course of heaven and earth;
He furthers and regulates the gifts of heaven and earth,
And so aids the people.

Heaven and earth are in contact and combine their influences, producing a time of universal flowering and prosperity. This stream of energy must be regulated by the ruler of men. It is done by a process of division. Thus men divide the uniform flow of time into the seasons, according to the succession of natural phenomena, and mark off infinite space by the points of the compass. In this way nature in its overwhelming profusion of phenomena is bounded and controlled. On the other hand, nature must be furthered in her productiveness. This is done by adjusting the product to the right time and the right place, which increases the natural yield. This controlling and furthering activity of man in his relation to nature is the work on nature that rewards him.

I Ching, 11. Peace

Seminars

Seminars are given several times a year. Seminars are an in-depth study of forms, weapons or two person exercises. Seminars are an excellent way to teach you a new form in a short period of time. For those repeating previously offered seminars it allows you to concentrate on details to better your performance and understanding as well as supporting the first timers.

Seminars are half off for repeaters unless noted.

People wishing to attend seminars that are not enrolled within the Tai Chi Center program must receive special permission from Elizabeth Wenscott. Seminar costs may vary.

All seminars are taught out of the Tai Chi Centers' main location unless otherwise noted.
