Cosmic Architecture
The 4 Cardinal Energies constitute the understated core of classical Tai Chi. They follow a cosmic template charting the 4 Seasons, the 4 Directions and the 4 Elements.
Acknowledge the central space to make it 5, and to strike a nice balance between completeness and efficiency.
We sometimes refine further in order to distinguish the 8 Winds and the 9 Palaces. Beyond this, we also work with the 16 Figures, the 64 Hexagrams, etc.
We’ve used this scalable cosmic framework to balance our Tai Chi course throughout. Now we invite you to experience first hand what good Tai Chi can do for you.
