Representing the School of Hunyuan at last weekend's Tuishou Exchange at @shaolintempleuk . Thank you @naxoencinatuishou for the recommendation to contact @mcginlay.barry to whom I also thank for organising such a fun event. Learned just as much, if not more, sitting with @shifuyanzi over tea afterwards, founder of the London temple, and a chief disciple of Shi Yong Xin, Abbot of the Shaolin Temple in China. Sending regards to the School of Hunyuan in Berlin under @diego_agullo training with Sifu @taijidisciple right now! And thanks as always to @kaya.podcast for starting me on this particular path of qigong and taiji.⚡️

The free paper produced by @shaolintempleuk confirming the eternal principle of change, or anicca in Pali dhamma, amongst other cosmologies and wisdom traditions, offered by @shifuyanzi also pictured.

The next exchange is on the 2nd August, and is open to complete beginners. Tuishou means 'pushing hands' and is the playful application of taiji forms. It is a nonviolent energy exchange, asking questions of the physical structure of one's partner. Contact @mcginlay.barry for more info, as there is also a more regular session on Hampstead Heath!
