Dear Sifu
I
wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed and learnt from the seminar
held by my Sigong when he visited us in Beccles.
As
a newer member to Qigong his teaching really helped me understand
what my body is doing during the exercises. Particularly how
the breathing is so important in completing the form. Since the
seminar I have found that by concentrating on my breathing it has
helped me to be in a better position and be more relaxed and
meditative. This has also increased my understanding of opening
up the meridian to release the Chi.
I
would say that I still have a long way to go especially on my
posture, but as Sigong (and yourself) says the more you do the more
it will come naturally to you.
Thank
you for a wonderful evening.
Best
wishes
Lesley
Really good to see Sifu back in Beccles. Sifu ability to get that angle just right as to gain the centre is inspiring and something to aspire too. Which only means more practice. A good evening had by all.

“Hello
this was the second time I have attended Tai-Sigong's seminar and I
would like to point out how much I learnt again.
Tai-Sigong's
seminars are invaluable and offer a great insight on getting the
fundamentals correct I.e Structure,Centerline, Posture.
I
would really recommend any of Tai-Sigong's seminars as you never stop
learning.
On a
personal note I would like to say how much of an honour it was to Chi
Sau with Tai-Sigong again, one day I hope to be at that high level.
Kind
Regards
Gary
“The
seminar was very informative. Tai Sigong Baker expanded on some
of the key concepts of Chi Sau. Such as getting to the centreline and
the importance of sensitivity which I found to be helpful for my own
practice and development of Chi Sau – Sam
“I
really enjoyed it and learned more than I expected. Was happy to see
my Wing Chun brothers and sisters are all getting better and can’t
wait for next time – James
“It
was another informative session with Tai-Sigong. He covered important
ground like elbow position and finding your opponents centre during
Chi Sau. There was a lot to think about and I came away knowing I
still have a lot to learn – Neil
“I
found the seminar extremely rewarding, I was able to Chi Sau with
Tai-Sigong and learn some subtle valuable tips about what I can do to
improve my Wing Chun. It was an incredible experience and I found it
to be awe inspiring. I would also like to thank my Sifu Eric Paule
for his tutelage and for giving me this opportunity – Robin
“This
was my first seminar, and it was way above my expectations. I learnt
so much and came away with lots of food for thought and it had
encouraged me to further develop my Wing Chun studies – Oliver
”
Thank you Sigong for another informative and exciting seminar in Beccles. Where old and new student's got to see, touch hands and ask questions of Sigong/ Tai Sigong. A really enjoyable experience for us all.
June
Just wanted to say a big thank you to Sigong Mike Baker for another great evening.
This is the second workshop we have attended and each time we have come away with a lot of insights in how to improve our practice.
Many thanks
Paul & Fran
It was great to see
Sigong Baker arrive for his annual visit to Beccles.
After introductions he
talked a bit about Wing Chun and Qigong,then everyone was able to ask
questions on whatever art they were currently studying.
Sigong answered
everyone's questions concisely and to their satisfaction.
He then went on to show
the Qigong students Balancing Gong, and the Wing Chun students
were shown how to keep
correct structure and the importance of this when chi Sau'ing.
It culminated in Sigong
Ch Sau'ing with everyone who wanted to Chi Sau with him, and as usual
his skill is of a very
high level and everyone enjoyed themselves and had a very good time
and learnt so much.
Eric
