I have finally got to the end of my recording project - CLOUD MURMUR - with my good friend Chris Evason on drums and production as well as excellent advice in arrangement. This EP is a selection of songs from my reportoire of original tunes that try to best represent the genres I enjoy singing, playing on guitar and bass. The project was such a rewarding one and built a lasting creative friendship that has evolved into our new live band - Focault a GoGo (releases from that band are in the pipeline). For now I would be stoked if any of you spare some time to have a listen to this EP.

Practising structured form and posture of traditional internal arts provide the opportunity for internal alignment processes to awaken. By practising traditional postural alignment, you grow a self reflective attitude that is based on sensing your way through, and in your body, feeling it’s alignment with gravity exploring the range of movement of your joints, attending to hard, soft, stiff, loose, sore, not sore etc. This attitude of attending to internal alignment processes deepens your embodied awareness.

How do you practice the traditional posture? With a welcome conversation you engage in daily, an exchange of gravity and support, tension and release-not just knowing thyself, but being thyself.

We had such a fantastic Workshop with my Master Liu Wanchun. It is astounding how we only get something when we are ready for it! A nei gong form Master showed me 18 years ago has finally made a profound impact on my practice of taijiquan by re learning it at this recent workshop. His training advice has been similar from the get go, simple direct and gets you to focus on the minimum aspects required.
If you want to truly inhabit the profundity of your embodied self, expanding your felt sense of presence, connection and flow with gravity and recoil from the earth as well as build in harmony as an added side effect, come and train taijiquan with us! Please use FB messager for class inquiries, and check the About tab on this page for class whereabouts and details.

Master Mizner, articulating the essences of this beautiful art form. I have trained two workshops with Curtis and added their warm up “opening” routines to my practice where you separate the parts to enable....I encourage any taichi practitioner to check out Mizners online course as a supplement to their live training with their teacher who can watch and help you adjust structure and give the living feedback needed to test your alignment!

ANTA Round 1 Graduate Award Winner - Timothy Duffy

Timothy completed a Diploma of Remedial Massage at National Institute of Education and Technology. Read why he started studying natural therapies below⬇️

"I have been an adherent of utilising the body's capacity to heal itself since 1994 through Taijiquan since 1992 and teaching it since 2004 and training in Hatha Yoga and learning about how diet and lifestyle choices impact body condition in both Ayurvedic and Chinese systems of medical thought and practice. I began by massage training in 2008 with a view of becoming an acupuncturist in TCM. Upon learning the techniques of Tuina massage from a teacher in the UK in 2008, I became more interested in practising massage as a therapy in itself. Further exposure to Emmett therapy training led me to building on my skill set of remedial techniques. In 2021 I decided to formalise my training and include further techniques with a Diploma in the western remedial massage tradition and opened my fledgling clinic in February of 2022. I really enjoy the positive effect massage can have on clients and the degree of satisfaction felt when a treatment has clear beneficial outcomes to the physical and mental state of the client. I also enjoy the problem-solving element of remedial therapy and exercising a caring and nurturing mindset in my relationships with people."
