Description
The Devon School of Tai Chi was set up by Matthew Rochford in 1999 with the aim of offering high quality Tai Chi instruction to people and organisations in Devon, the UK, and abroad. The School is part of The Wu Kung Federation, The British Council For Chinese Martial Arts and The Tai Chi Union For Great Britain
Our qualified instructors have experience in several styles of Tai Chi, although we primarily teach Yang style Tai Chi. We offer a Tai Chi program which has been set up to help students achieve a steady progression through and understanding of, the key elements of Tai Chi.
Matthew has been practicing Tai Chi since 1991 and completed a six year senior teaching course in 2002. During that time he has learnt many Tai Chi Forms and worked with leading teacher Peter Warr and trained with Professor Li De Yin from Beijing. Working professionally as an instructor Matthew has taught in a wide variety of locations from sheltered housing projects to The Mind Body Spirit Festival. He has also appeared on TV and Radio, sharing his enthusiasm for the art. As a professional writer on Tai Chi he has been published in national magazines and his first book ‘Total Tai Chi’ (MQ Publications) was released in the UK and USA during April 2003 and was recently translated into Spanish.
