Free Event
Sponsored by New Age Hippy, Inc.

The 13 Postures are the foundation of all styles of Tai Chi Chuan. Understanding them can help deepen your Tai Chi study, including “Tai Chi” philosophy and “Quan” (physical movement), as a WHOLE of “Yin” and “Yang”. This workshop also helps any tai chi form. Each essential part of the 13 provides the meaning behind basic tai chi movement allowing you to improve your tai chi skills much faster and more accurately.

REGISTRATION REQUIRED

Since the basic 13 postures are the foundation for tai chi forms and for wisdom for life, Hong has created this workshop since 10 years ago to explore the different layers and help practitioners to improve their Tai Chi skills more efficiently.

Who may attend:

Anyone who practices any Tai Chi form, wants to learn both Tai Chi skills and Tai Chi theory/philosophy behind forms and movements, and wants to understand the relationship between Tai Chi movements and Tai Chi balance/wisdom in life.

Hong Yang, PhD, MBA, Taichi Master

Hong is the founder of the Tai Chi Zen Institute. As a family internal Taiji inheritor, she has been studying Taiji since she was five years old. Hong is a world Taiji champion in Tai Chi hand forms, sword forms, and push hands.

She also serves as a Master Trainer for the international Tai Chi for Health Institute. Hong earned her doctorate in integrative traditional medicine at Nan Jing University of Chinese Medicine.

Chi Fest 2026
2026-01-24 10:00 - 16:00 | Jarboe community center, 301 Florida Blvd, Neptune Beach, Fl, 32266
Join us for a day of Celebration, as we promote a positive, healthy, and sustainable lifestyle. Chi is a Chinese term for a vital life force or energy that flows through all living things, connecting the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of a person. It is an invisible force, often compared to an electric current, that can be strengthened through practices like diet, sleep, and exercise, and is considered to be in balance when one is healthy and vibrant.
* Medical Chi *Nature Chi *Juggling Chi *Walking with the Clouds Chi
*Animal Frolics Chi *Three Treasures/Five Elements *Dancing Chi

Life force: Chi is understood as the animating force behind life itself.
Universal energy: It is not limited to people, but is a universal energy that flows through all of nature.
Physical and non-physical: On a physical level, chi can be seen as the air we breathe, while on a more energetic or spiritual level, it connects the body, mind, and spirit.
Yin and Yang: The flow and balance of chi are deeply connected to the principles of yin and yang, which describe complementary and interconnected forces.
Health and vitality: When chi is balanced, it is associated with good health, vitality, and a strong sense of well-being. When it is blocked or imbalanced, it can lead to illness.Special thank you to our sponsors:
