The Concept
Rooted in Nils’ teaching experience of over 30 years and the insights gained by practical work with students from many styles at the Push Hands Meetings, you will learn a practical hands-on approach towards Push Hands which allows you to develop yourself as a practitioner as well as a Push Hands teacher and mentor for your own students. Following the Taiji ideal of live-long learning , the teacher training centres on the basics and on how to expand your skills starting with simple exercises. Nils’ integrated approach towards learning push hands will enable you to grow within a living system, which makes it easy to integrate new ideas while learning along with and amongst your fellow practitioners and students. The underlying topic will be Push Hands as wordless communication.
Student-centered approach
The teacher training is built around basic exercises which are adjustable to different levels of experience. The workshops will be held with an open view, which adapts to the questions and the needs of the participants.
All workshops may also be attended individually, as they are comprehensively dealing with single topics.
Certification
For certification purposes, the attendance of all three workshops and the International Push Hands Meeting in 2025 (or 2026 respectively) is mandatory.
For any questions, feel free to give Nils a ring.
