In
May 2002, our association forged new links in the world Taiji
community when Master Zeng Naliang and Master Wei Xianglian (Mrs.
Zeng) came to Thunder Bay to visit and to teach. They were invited
here by the Thunder Bay 55 Plus Centre and our Association. At
the Farewell Party our President Peng, presented them with plaques
naming Master Zeng as our Association's Chief Advisor and Master
Wei as our Association's Honourary President. On their part, the
Masters had previously presented Peng with a certificate naming
him Honourary President of the Fuzhou Huawu Gongfu Centre.During
the course of their stay they taught a number of courses and gave
workshops. Most popular was a series workshops on the Six Forms
Taiji Qigong (Liu Shou Gong). The Six Forms was designed by Master
Zeng and Master Wei purely to enhance health . Particiipants learned
to perform the movements coordinated with their breathing and
circulation of Qi. Since Master Zeng's retirement as head coach
of the Chinese National Wushu Team, they are devoting much of
their time to promoting the health benefits of Taiji and Qigong.
Our Association has translated their book. The English title is
Taiji Qigong:Six Forms for Health.
