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.
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.

As the battle against Covid 19 continues and most of us have been fully vaccinated, some of our tai chi classes are moving and we have a new one. See our classes list for changes at Chelmsford (was at Broomfield), Burnham on Crouch, and our new class at Wickham Bishops.
It’s over a month since most legal restrictions ended and we’re down to common sense. All classes are active indoors as listed in the relevant links at the side. We’re even planning a workshop-cum-get-together in September.
Ask your class instructor for details.
Take care out there and keep well!
With the move in May to step 3 of the Roadmap out of Covid we’ve been able to start our indoor classes again. There has been some re-organisation of classes with some classes being closed, others re-opened and a couple of new ones starting in June. Check the Classes menu at the side for more details – note that there are two sub-menus, one for Tai Chi classes and another for Lok Hup Ba Fa.
The new classes will be at Danbury on Thursday afternoons and at Broomfield on Monday evenings.
Our instructor ‘committee’ met recently at Oaklands park in Chelmsford to discuss our next steps as Covid recedes, and then had a practise session together afterwards…
Welcome, to our Newsletter, April 2020.
At 10.00 on Saturday 25th April, we were due to meet at Great Totham to celebrate with a Tai Chi set, along with Tai Chi’ers around the world. However as this year, we are subject to social distancing, plans had to be altered and members marked the occasion in their own homes and gardens.
We’ll make up for it next year!!
Here’s some pictures.
