We also have a regular guest teacher Sarah May (see http://flowingwithlife.co.uk/) who comes once a term.
History
We teach the Short Yang form that made popular in the West by Chen Manching. The original Tai Chi classes were taken by Josh Partridge who learned a version of the Short Yang form from Alan Peck at Bristol. Josh moved out of the area in 2011 and asked Dave and Richard to take over the class.
Below is a demonstration of the form by Chen Man-Ch'ing.
