Yang Style Tai Chi
The Yang form taught by Yang Cheng Fu, a direct descendant of the Yang family, is a superb balance between ease of learning and depth of internals for beginning and intermediate practitioners. Paul Cavel teaches Mini, Short, and Medium Forms derived from the Long Form and powered by neigong.
34 Yrs Transmission-based Study
TTCS Principal Paul Cavel has studied with Taoist Master Bruce Frantzis in public and private tuition since 1992. Paul began teaching the Water Method in 1995, and became a senior student of Master Frantzis in 2004. He is an Energy Arts Instructor-certifier and the author of three books on tai chi, qigong and Taoism.Â
Wu Style Tai Chi
Wu tai chi takes the art to its pinnacle, becoming a form of moving meditation. All principles adhere to the 16 neigong system, as passed down by Master Frantzis. Paul Cavel teaches the Wu Long Form, which includes complete and balanced Mini, Short and Medium Forms to train along the way.
Authentic Tai Chi Lineages
Master Bruce Frantzis is a Tai Chi Lineage Holder in both the Yang and Wu styles.

“Paul Cavel is a gifted teacher who is able to embody the arts and break them down into easy-to-follow steps. I have seen him help others build extraordinary energetic foundations in their bodies”.
— Taoist Master Bruce Frantzis
