Workshops Ý Ý Ý Ý Ý Ý Ý

For more than a decade, Jeffrey Fisher has been writing and speaking on a number of topics. He has worked with many differing kinds of groups, from retired professionals to early childhood care-givers. Much of the content of the workshops have some basis in his study and teaching of T'ai Chi Chu'an, an ancient Chinese art for which we have no parallel in this country or culture. Wen Shen Huang, co-creator of the National T'ai Chi Association, along with Fisher's teacher Dr. Marshall Ho'o, was not only one of the world's foremost authorities on martial arts, but a was a scholar and professor of "Culturolgy", a branch of history and social sciences which he himself created and developed. Marshall Ho'o was also an eclectic thinker, a political activist, philosopher and instrumental in having acupuncture accredited in California. He termed T'ai Chi "The Art of Living".

Beyond Body Language - the energetics of the human mind and body
We have not yet incorporated much into our "civilized" lifestyle that was utilized and understood by so-called primitive societies. The Native American people, for example, understood a great deal about energy. Chinese Taoists, and their predecessors studied this same energy, and created a system for learning and working with it.

We are now developing in every individual ideas and abilities once thought to be the realm of pure intuition. It has applications in areas of health, healing, meditation and martial arts, and there are some very practical applications and techniques usable in any interactive situation.
