Learn Tai Chi Sword and Push Hands in San Rafael
Learn Tai Chi Sword and Push Hands in San Rafael with Sifu Scott Jensen! New classes offered at the City of San Rafael at the main community center. If you have learned a Tai Chi form and would like to advance your practice, Tai Chi Sword is an awesome next step. It is also great for building your strength and relieving stress. The Push Hand class is designed for advanced Tai Chi students who want to increase their sensitivity and refine their techniques.
If you have been looking for advanced Tai Chi lessons you have found them. There will be two groups in class. One group will be led by Rachel Jensen and will study the Tai Chi sword form. She will teach the 46 style Tai Chi sword from the Chen Pan Ling Lineage of Tai Chi. This is a beautiful sword form with a complete set of classical sword techniques. There are very few repetitions so the form is full of unique movements. This makes it exciting to learn and practice.
The other group will learn Push Hands from Sifu Scott Jensen. Pushing Hands is the two person exercise of Tai Chi designed to develop your self defense skills. Push Hands is incredibly helpful for understanding the movements of the Tai Chi form. Learning Push Hands gives you clear feedback on the your posture and improves your balance. It also develops your sensitivity to your partner and ability to feel their balance, direction of movement and intention. The exercises in Push Hands are gentle and cooperative at first. Later as you learn more Push Hands can become an exciting game of off balancing one another. Push Hands is a safe way to develop self defense skills.
These advanced Tai Chi classes are oriented towards students with some experience of Tai Chi or other martial arts. It is not necessary to learn the Tai Chi solo form but it definitely helps. You also do not need to learn the Yang Family form. Students of all styles of Tai Chi and all experience levels are welcome to attend.
Both Rachel and Scott Jensen will include detailed and careful instruction with plenty of repetition and individual correction and attention.

These new Monday night advanced Tai Chi classes start slightly later than my other classes at 7:15 PM. We hope it’s easier for people to make class after work.
