About this Event
We are excited to announce details of Master Iain’s long awaited Shuang Yang course. This will be the most detailed course that Master Iain has ever taught live and will not be repeated any time soon.
This course will follow our 70th Anniversary event on the evening of May 10th, so the 2 can easily be combined! We highly recommend you join us for all 3 dates.
What you will learn:
Detailed move by move tuition on each of the 66 postures and the transitions between them including:
- How to do the posture.
- Footwork.
- Breathing.
- How to stretch in this posture.
- Movement of energy (chi) though the body.
- Martial application.
- Story of the name of the posture.
Torso movement. How to move, stretch and manipulate the torso.
Use of eyes, (guiding chi with the help of the eyes).
Breathing. Rising and falling of chi.
Embodied philosophy. Flow, wu wei, non resistance (bending like a reed), yin-yang.
Shuang Yang as meditation in movement.
Manifesting character values through practise: grounded, upright, relaxed, flexible.
There will be plenty time for questions. We will be getting straight down to business, though: only very short warm up-stretch sessions, just enought to get ready to practise safely. Every minute counts, master Iain is serious about passing on this treasured art.
About Your Teacher:
Master Iain has been studying and practicing the Shuang Yang for 43 years, and teaching it for 36. Few people alive can say that, and of those, even fewer are native to the English language, able to convey the depths and essence of this routine with such clarity and precision.
For the 1st time in half a decade, Master Iain will be returning to the UK to reconnect with his old students and new to pass on his knowledge to anyone who wants to learn. This will likely not happen again for many years.
What other students have to say:
"I consider Shuang Yang a real gift. I made a daily routing out of Qigong, Shuang Yang and meditation and it gives me relaxation and energy. I wouldn't have that if I wouldn't have learned it..." ~Matthias, Student
"Learning to calm my mind in that situation was one of the most powerful things I took away from the trip. That and the 'Shuang Yuang', an interesting and powerful moving meditation that takes a lifetime to master." ~Jon, Student
"This is THE place to train and develop your mind and body. Master Iain is an inspiration to learn from. Our talks in the morning had developed our minds to a new level. The training develops your body and coordination." ~Anders, Student
