Joint weekend workshop a success

ETCA web admin | October 4, 2022 |

Over the weekend of 17th and 18th September ’22 we held our first post-pandemic joint workshop in Maldon. We were able to welcome members, not just from the Essex Tai Chi Academy, but also other neighbouring Academies whose practice follows the same tradition of Mr Moy Lin Shin.

We were honoured to receive instruction from experienced tai-chiers Peter Lambiris and Darren Pryke, both of whom were students of Mr Moy during his lifetime.

The photo shows us all hard at work.

… and here we are at the end discussing what we’d learnt.

Joint instructors’ workshop – a post-Covid first

ETCA web admin | August 8, 2022 |

This weekend, instructors from Essex Tai Chi Academy along with instructors from three neighbouring tai chi academies met in Fen Drayton village hall to practice our tai chi together and to learn from each other. This is the first time we’ve been together since you-know-what. We were all able to polish up some rusty bits of our tai chi form and understanding which will help our students in the future.

2022 Bank Holiday classes

ETCA web admin | May 23, 2022 |

We’re entering the Bank Holiday season and this year there are more than usual.

In most cases we can still use the class halls and the decision to run a class or take a break will depend on the individual class and their instructor. Other classes do not have access to the halls on bank holidays.

To be sure, check the individual class page or ask the instructor.
