With Vice President of SYL Wushu Taiji Qigong Institute
Master Helen Liang

Explore the ancient Chinese martial art of Tai Chi with Master Helen Liang and discover its profound benefits — greater inner and outer strength, calmness, clarity, and inner peace.

Experience a meditation-in-motion that bathes your internal organs from top to bottom with vital life-force energy.

We’re emerging from one of the most stressful times in recent history. The pandemic seems to have changed everyone’s life in some way.

If you’ve lost your peace of mind or mental clarity, or even some flexibility and physical strength, you’re not alone.

Even in the best of times, the wear and tear of life’s journey can take its toll on your health and peace of mind.

Tai Chi Master Helen Liang affirms that a stronger, more flexible body and a mind that is focused in the present moment enables you to face personal challenges successfully, allowing them to wash over you rather than consume you.

But the question is, how can you achieve that?

For centuries, the ancient martial art form Tai Chi has helped people of all ages fortify their physical bodies, regain mental clarity, and access inner tranquility.

Tai Chi is often called “meditation in motion.” Its slow, low-impact, precise elegant movements are designed to activate, balance, and harmonize opposing energies — the yin and yang.

Tai Chi also clears the mind of distracting mental chatter through concentration and practice of the different postures.

During this free one-hour online workshop led by Master Helen, she’ll demonstrate a powerful pose called Lie — meaning split — which moves Qi (vital life-force energy) from the bottom to the top of your body and throughout your internal organs, improving strength, flexibility, and balance.

Helen will provide an overview of the many physical and mental benefits of the various postures, and illuminate the philosophy of Tai Chi and Taoist principles that are its foundation.

For example, one of the powerful principles in Tai Chi, yielding, is practiced by exerting the least amount of effort to obtain the greatest result. Helen refers to it as using four ounces of strength to move 1,000 pounds. This principle shows us that we can work with nature to use our natural abilities to experience life in a more harmonious way.

Helen will share how you can integrate Tai Chi into your daily life to discover or regain physical and inner strength, flexibility, resilience and vitality, improve your mental clarity, and more fully realize your sacred spiritual nature.

In this hour-long free online event, you’ll:

  • Explore how the practice of Tai Chi provides an opportunity for healing physically, mentally, and spiritually
  • Learn how to perform the Lie pose, one of the 13 Tai Chi postures that will activate your Qi, helping you embrace real life challenges, find peace, and build strength while increasing agility, flexibility, and balance
  • Delve into the Taoist concept of using the soft to conquer the hard
  • Understand why a calm and peaceful mind is a gateway to recognizing opportunities and uncovering solutions to challenges
  • Discover the Taoist meaning of “right time” as you learn the proper timing of the movements, and experience the synergy of how moving one part of the body affects the entire body

Precise, choreographed movements are a vital aspect of Tai Chi. As you discover and practice the Lie pose, you’ll have the opportunity to feel your Qi flow throughout your body.

You’ll find that as you concentrate on the movements, your mind clears and the chatter quiets.

Helen, the eldest daughter of Grandmaster Shou-Yu Liang, began training in traditional Wushu at the age of four under his strict tutelage. At age 11, she was chosen to train with Sichuan Provincial Wushu School in China, and since then has won many gold medals in competitions throughout the world. After emigrating to Canada in 1985, she has become one of the most revered experts in North America on Chinese martial arts.

This online workshop offers a life-enriching opportunity to experience Tai Chi from a renowned master who has taught thousands of students over the past three decades and is an expert in Tai Chi for women and people with cancer.

More than 25 years ago, when Helen was confined to a hospital bed with terminal-stage lymphoma, a raging fever, and no hope for survival, she asked to go home so she could spend the last few weeks of her life with her family. Through a miraculous series of interventions, she became strong enough to return to her Qigong practice, which restored her to health.

Her own recovery from a dire health diagnosis has fueled her passion for teaching and sharing the transformative principles that saved her life.

During this hour-long event, you’ll be among the first to hear about Helen’s new 7-week online course,where she’ll dive deeper into the essential 13 postures and demonstrate that when done correctly, each posture and movement has its own unique benefit.

You’ll learn how to use Tai Chi to improve the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects of your life, and explore how Taoist principles of following nature can help you recognize opportunities offered through the natural flow of life.

What People Are Saying About Master Helen Liang...

“I deeply regret that I did not have the opportunity to learn with Helen Liang many years prior...”
I benefited greatly from this course. I have been practicing Tai Chi for many years, mostly on my own. This course gave me a deeper understanding of Tai Chi and gave me some important ideas and principles that are greatly improving my performance of the art. I deeply regret that I did not have the opportunity to learn with Helen Liang many years prior to this. She comes from a background that positioned her to be a master of the complex art that Tai Chi is. She is also knowledgeable about Chinese culture and philosophical ideas as they apply to Tai Chi. Helen is very charming and engaging as well. Her lovely personality sweetens the whole experience. I would highly recommend this course to anybody who is interested in learning about Tai Chi (and this applies to more than those who are beginners). I would like to do more Tai Chi with her.

“My Tai Chi practice was greatly enhanced...”
The details Master Helen taught about perfect basic form and the ways those details contributed to the goal of obtaining the Wu Wei state were superb. My Tai Chi practice was greatly enhanced, as was my internal balance and coherency of flow.

“I believe Helen Liang is the very best teacher to accurately spread the martial arts teachings...”
I am on old friend of Helen Liang’s father, Liang Shouyu. Twenty years ago, while attending a martial arts competition organized by the American Kungfu Taichi Magazine, Helen, who acted as the master of ceremony, interviewed me. I retain an extremely good impression of her. She seemed amiable and courteous, and spoke with great clarity. Her train of thought was methodical, especially when expounding her deep knowledge of martial arts. And when she performed the Liuhe Bafa style during the conference, I was very impressed by her natural and unrestrained style. Her movements were expansive and grounded in solid skills. To truly be able to disseminate the profound knowledge of Chinese martial arts culture outside of China requires not just a strong physical mastery of martial arts skills, a deep knowledge of the extensive martial arts principles and Chinese culture, but also a true moral character with an extremely open mind to convey all the details in a good command of the English language. Helen Liang has all these. It is for this reason that Helen Liang has received the esteem and deep respect from her many students abroad who have benefitted from her teachings over many years. I believe Helen Liang is the very best teacher to accurately spread the martial arts teachings to all foreign friends.

“I'm walking away with a beautiful experience of Tai Chi.”
This course was so enlightening. I loved learning Tai Chi with Master Helen. She’s a wonderful teacher and really broke things down so they became rewarding to learn. The pace was perfect, and I’m walking away with a beautiful experience of Tai Chi. I will look for ways to keep integrating the practice into my life.

“I felt the fundamental concepts had never been so well explained before.”
I felt I finally understood some of the fundamentals of Tai Chi when Master Helen explained them in this course. I have learned Tai Chi for many years, but I felt the fundamental concepts had never been so well explained before. Really grateful.

“Master Helen is a gifted teacher.”
Master Helen is a gifted teacher. Not only is she thorough, she is encouraging, and to watch her move through the form is inspiring.
