Welcome to Wind River Tai Chi Chuan, internal martial arts for health & enlightenment, Tucson, Arizona
Tai Chi Chuan and Chinese Internal Martial Arts have been practiced for centuries to improve self-defense ability, health, strength and spiritual awareness. Tai Chi practice has demonstrated benefits for easing arthritis pain, improving balance, and increasing flexibility in body and mind.
Our practice and teaching are rooted in the martial and healing arts taught by World Renowned Grandmaster Sam Tam.
Master Tam is Jordan Misner’s Sifu. Jordan has been studying with Sifu Tam since 2002. A student of Chinese Martial Arts since 1992, Sifu Jordan has earned a reputation as a respected skilled and knowledgeable teacher.
Our core practice is designed to cultivate integrated body, Qi, and Shen (spirit) through the practices of Zhan Zhuang (standing meditation), Tai Chi Chuan, Qi Gong, and partner exercises. Through the practice of Yi Chuan standing meditation and its postures the core structure and connections of the body/mind are integrated and strengthened.
As the student progresses there are opportunities to learn tai chi Jian (straight sword), tai chi fan, tai chi short staff, and tai chi saber, as well as Dao yin qi gong and 5 animal qi gongs.
Our classes are ongoing and are designed to accommodate students at many levels of experience, as well as beginning students without previous experience. Visitors are welcome to participate and meet our students during a class, and new students are welcome to join in our core classes at any time.
Core classes are held weekly on Saturday mornings. You will find us at the Children’s Memorial Park next to the basketball courts in Tucson, Arizona.
