Saturday, February 3, 2007 from noon to 3:00 pm - Push Hands
Push Hands practice helps students gain an understanding of
leverage, reflex, sensitivity, timing, coordination and positioning.
You learn to avoid, neutralize and redirect the incoming forces of
your opponent's attack while also learning to generate, coordinate
and deliver power to them. These skills are very important in
gaining a deeper understanding of Tai Chi, but are also useful to
any martial artist wanting to become more effective when fighting in
close range.

Sunday, February 4, 2007 from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm - Qinna
Qinna is the Chinese art of "seize and control." It is used to
restrain opponents through techniques for locking joints or muscles
and tendons by applying leverage and using pressure points. The
techniques require very little force making them especially
effective against larger and stronger opponents. In addition, the
pressure of many techniques can be adjusted so that they can be used
merely to control an opponent or to injure or disable them when
necessary. The techniques can be used to defend against grabs, holds
and chokes or used to immobilize, subdue, or control assailants.
These are important skills for when you are in close contact with an
opponent and are especially useful in law enforcement and other
situations when you need to subdue an assailant without injuring
them.

These workshops are suitable for all martial arts styles and all
levels of experience, including beginners with no previous training.
Don't miss this opportunity to learn from one of the best! Class
size will be limited to ensure everyone gets individual attention
and plenty of hands-on experience. Be sure to register in advance to
reserve a spot as walk-in registrations are not guaranteed.
