Learn from a Master. Ten points that make the Master Ding Academy in Florence different from other Yang Style Tai Chi Chuan schools

1. We are an exclusive club because our main concern is helping people to grow through learning about themselves while learning the art of Yang Style Tai Chi Chuan
2. Our program is long-term and not just a passing fad
3. We view Yang Style Tai Chi Chuan as an effective self-defense and health art that is extremely good for everyone’s well-being, especially for the elderly
4. The instructor, Cedric Randolph, who has been training and teaching Chinese martial arts more than 50 years, has been teaching at the Palestra degli Artigianelli for nearly 40 years with over 30 years of Yang Style Tai Chi Chuan and almost 20 years of intense study and training under Master Ding Teah Chean who is the current Yang Style Tai Chi Chuan lineage holder, with whom we have a direct link
5. We do not require that students wear uniforms
6. We work on understanding principles and concepts rather than imitating postures
7. We study Master Yang Chen Fu’s 10 principles
8. We do not view energy work or Chi as a mystery or something esoteric
9. Our beginning and advanced lessons, aimed at the natural refinement of one’s everyday action, are systematic and bring good results
10. We have no restrictions as to age or health
