Riding Tiger is the name of the clubs formed by Ken Webster dedicated to teaching
the Traditional Sun Family Forms of Tai Chi Chuan in the North Humberside area.
Ken
is approved as an Instructor in the Sun form by David Martin, President of the Sun
Taijiquan Organisation, and also as an instructor with the Tai Chi Union of Great
Britain. He has a combined total of over thirty years in the study of several martial
arts including Feng Sau Kung Fu under Chee Soo, Shaolin Chuan Fa Kung Fu with Mike
Mitchell and Angela O’Connor. He has also experience of training in Judo, and Shukokai
Karate. A work related injury led Ken to follow a long time interest in Taijiquan,
and has led to him becoming an instructor in Sun Style Taijiquan.
Ken has found the
Sun form is very suitable for people with a wide range of health issues. The stepping
techniques, continuous movement, higher stances and breathing techniques so characteristic
of the Sun Form, mean that training this form of Tai Chi Chuan is not only possible
but most enjoyable. Also combining his experience of other martial arts, he can offer
interesting insights to people with martial art experience wishing to experience
further their training or experience.
Ken was invited to China with Carl Bateman, where he was privileged to train with
Master Zhang Zhen-hua . Ken received intensive training in the Sun Style elements
of Taijiquan Form, Sword Form, Xing Yi, Baghuazhang, and Push Hands from Master Zhang
and some of his colleagues..
Also we would be interested in hearing from anyone, having completed a short Sun form, wishing to extend their experience to study the full Traditional Sun 97 Step form and gain instructor status.
