Tuition

During my continuing course of training with Simu Kuo, I have always trained privately or with a single training partner who is simultaneously learning the same thing. And, although I have conducted group classes in the past, currently I generally only offering private sessions with 1 to 2 students maximum.

These sessions will take place in one of the many parks and public spaces available in the Venice, Santa Monica and Marina Del Rey areas. Or if you prefer, the privacy of your own home.

We strongly believe that this is the best approach. And will allow us to create a tailored, optimized path for your training journey.

Here are the rates and packages:

  • Introductory 1 hour consultation is $125.
    • This will include a discussion of your goals…
    • A demonstration of movement, stillness, body mechanics, and…
    • Full transmission of the 6 fundamental alignment/warmup exercises.
      • Below are images of some of these exercises.

Your instructor is on the bottom left and 3rd from bottom right in white pants and dark shirt. Photos are circa 1985 at latest.

For many this single lesson may be all that is required to jump start the investigation, with the path forward being simply to incorporate these 6 exercises into their existing mind/body/spirit cultivation practices. With this approach, I recommend follow-up sessions at the following anniversaries:

  • 100 Days
  • 1 Year
  • 3 Years

For those who choose to take the deeper dive of absorbing our unique movement pattern of 64 Taijiquan postures>>> expect a minimum of 6 months to 1 year to learn all of the steps>>> from Strike Palm to Ask Buddha all the way to the Grand Terminus. Followed up by a lifetime of continuous learning as you peel away layer upon layer of unconscious self-imposed tensions–to reveal your natural, shining & radiant Self.

Throughout this process self-study is absolutely the essential driver…Continuous self-discipline spanning every single day of each season, while directing the totality of your conscious effort into harmonizing this repertoire of still postures and flowing movements with the ever-changing reality of your intrinsic nature.
