I took Taichi Master Luo's class in Oct 2008. He hold a small group class with 5-7 people at my friend's house. It was my first Taiji lesson in my life. In my mind, Taiji's movement was so smooth and slow and it was just for relax and health -- my mother could practice it very well.
I was so surprised to find that every movement taught by Master Luo was just opposite: every movement can make you fall down to the ground! I realized that the TRUE Taiji's soul is to "defense" (防御). Master Luo explained to me that from the 柔 and 慢, it can get the control and 麻痹 the enemy. To me, Master Luo is like a 国宝!
My husband pracise Taiji for many many years! When I invited him to go with me. he always said "you are in a beginning class and I am not interested in". Even if I told everything about what I learnt, he ignored me until two weeks before Master Luo went back to China. We organized a workshop for Master Luo:
羅大師曾於2009年受華夏文化協會和www.Bostonwebpower.com的邀請開辦講座，
與大家共享太極拳“借彼之力，反彼之身”的精彩與妙趣。
My husband went to the workshop. Since then, he had had private lessons almost everyday with Master Luo for 2 weeks trying to learn all of his 69 式. Also he practiced with Master Luo's DVD everyday! Of course I laughed at him: why didn't you listen to me!
Fortunately, Master Luo came back to Boston in April again. In all of Master Luo's classes: beginning classes, intermediate classes, 推手classes, you would find my husband there! Other people took 1-2 lessons each week, he took 4 lessons each week!
Master Luo will go back to China in 5 months. He is giving 3.5 months classes again!
The location will be in Lexington:
Munroe Center for the Arts, first floor
1403 Massachusetts Avenue
Lexington, Massachusetts 02420
