4 ounces to move 1000 pounds_

What is tai chi ?

Perhaps the black and white pattern in a circle like 2 fishes chasing each other or yin and yang comes to one’s mind. …….

“ Si Liang Bo qian Jin “ is a Chinese saying : using 4 ounces strength to move a 1000 pounds weight. This saying is frequently heard in Tai Chi classes around the globe.

This concept is not about one’s size, or even if your opponent is stronger than you are. It is about using tai chi concepts in practical life application.

With this concept we are dealing with “live weight” or moving object, and by applying leverage. But using mind and intent and NOT force.
_

My name is Adrian Ling, I learned tai chi when I was young, from the old master back in Malaysia. I began to take tai chi more seriously for the last 5 to 6 years. And been teaching in community centres, libraries and among friends and families.

I like to introduce the basic tai chi and qi gong to our community, both for wellness and physical health .

We will be working towards learning forms. Eg. Yang style 8, 16, 24, 32 forms.

Or Chen style 18 forms.

These will come to light more when we are physically there. The forms are the building blocks of tai chi.

And tai chi can be translated as : The supreme ultimate.

A vinyasa flow is designed to capture the essential elements of primal movement.

During this session we ask ourselves "what would I be like if I had never sat in a chair or been able to get my food from walking around a busy supermarket. What would my body feel like if I had to run, climb and move just to survive".

This session is a discovery session, with yoga as the key vehicle. Balance, strength in posture and finding new movement patterns.

Special Notes: Set around vinyasa, expect some workshop moments and non-yogic movements.

You may sweat.

This is a FREE SPACE to practice yoga. This session is an open invitation to come and enjoy a yoga reset! Yoga is for everyone and this is an open session for all levels. There will be time after the session for chai and chats and space to explore any aspects of your practice that you wish!...

Messagen from Alex Akal

"Dear all!

I’m very glad to invite you to a special evening on Friday, November 22nd, 2024.It’s going to be a night about my new album release “Timeless”, and then a jam session with you!

The Timeless album celebrates the importance of traditional musical instruments as a bridge between past and present. Each of the seven tracks features an ancient traditional instrument from different parts of the world, blending them with modern electronic beats and tribal trance rhythms. This shows how these instruments are still so relevant and important today, drawing in modern listeners and connecting different cultures through music.

This event is a journey through music, culture, and time, and I can’t wait to share it with you!

When: Friday, November 22nd, 2024
What to expect:
Arriving (7 PM - 8 PM) - Try to arrive at 7 PM to get immersed in sound and atmosphere before we kick in with the Timeless experience.

Album Presentation (8:00 PM – 9:00 PM) - We are going to dance to the tracks from Timeless and have a sonic adventure, exploring sounds from different cultures and mixing ancient vibes with today’s beats.

There will also be powerful visuals connected to each song. Timeless will do its best to make you fly:)

Open Jam Session (9:00 PM – onwards) - After the main set, I’d love for everyone to jump in for an open jam! Whether you play an instrument or just want to vibe with the energy, come join the music, and let’s create one of our powerful jams together.

“Timeless” Cake (10:30 PM) In the last years, I have been celebrating my birthday with many of you. This year is different because of the album launch, but still, we will spend quality time together and share a special "Timeless" cake(we’ll have a quick break in the middle of the jam for it, whenever it feels right:)
I’d love for you to be a part of this moment with me!

Feel free to invite your friends, bring your instruments, or just bring good vibes. Let’s have a great night!
More details and updates coming soon, so stay tuned!
Looking forward to seeing you there!

Alex"
