Greg and Ching teach the Yang Style 60-Movement Short Form in the tradition of Grandmaster Chen. Their focus is on sound body mechanics, energy cultivation, and congruent mind. Sound body mechanics enable powerful action for martial arts and daily activities, as well as promoting the strength and well-being of the spine. Energy cultivation builds and refines ch'i, which is bio-energy or life force. Congruent mind means the ability to think one thing at at time, quieting busy thought and cultivating inner peace.
