Mark opened his first class 7 years ago to pass on the benefits of Tai Chi Ch`aun and related arts through his knowledge and experience. Mark takes great satisfaction from seeing students of all capabilities began to develop and understand what Tai Chi Ch`uan can offer to them. The training is varied and accessible to everyone especially to those with a willingness to learn, as there seems to be no loss of depth to the forms and applications (even in the dreaded sticky hand, Hee Hee!) the benefits unfold and become apparent through regular dedicated practice, and the passing of time, all you have to do is dip your toe in the water. On the Yorkshire coast their are many skilled and dedicated instructors helping increase awareness and the availability of these Arts it is with the help of these hard working enthusiastic members that Tai Chi Ch`aun will continue to grow and proper.

You know what it’s like, you get home from class nice and relaxed. It was a great class and tonight you learnt a few new moves in the lee style form, lee style T’ai Chi Dance or maybe a new breathing exercise (Dao Yin) and went to sleep happy. Next day after work you try to remember what you learnt and it’s a bit fussy or you simply can not remember at all. The good news is that if you practise the Lee Style (Sometimes named Li Style) then this site has the answer for you. Our DVDs are produced just for students of the lee style. Filmed outside in the fresh air, I love to practise outside in the fresh air, although I must confess I prefer summer to winter. Our DVDs and Manuals are made for people who want to practise at home. We are here to enhance the training experience and our DVDs and other publications do just that.
