Levels Three & Four Tai Chi
Integration and Flow
Level Three: Integrated Movement Drills
Integrated movement drills are forms that are extracted from the Heaven Form and done in a very flowing continuous manner from side to side. They teach the student how to integrate and power their body as a unit, how to relax into faster movements, and the core defense patterns of the system (application is not discussed or emphasized below the Instructor Level of training).
This level is very relaxing and peaceful, however it provides a good degree of physical conditioning.
Level Four: Waters of Heaven Form
The Waters of Heaven form is a fast flowing version of the Heaven Form. This level teaches continuous flow of energy through complex patterns.
