Dr. Weng's Tai-Chi Monkey System





Distance Learning Program

The Distance Learning Program for the Tai-Chi Monkey System is set up for those who would like to earn a official certificate, but due to various reasons, cannot take lessons from Dr. Weng or other licensed instructors. There are two paths one can take to earn a certificate in Ch'ang Tai-chi and The Tai-chi Monkey System:
  1. Personal Achievement Path
    The Certification of Personal Achievement focuses on the Ch'ang Style Tai-chi Short Form. For this degree of certification, students must have an intimate knowledge of the form and be aware of the martial applications contained within it. On this path, the student will use the Ch'ang Style Tai-chi Short Form video and book to learn at home.

  2. Professional Development Path
    Before beginning training for certification in the Professional Path, it is important that we first discuss the focus of your learning and pinpoint a goal for your training. Different areas of focus include (but are not limited to) cardio tai-chi, stress reduction, general fitness, and martial techniques.

    There are 3 levels of certification in the Professional Development Path:
    1. Assistant Instructor
    2. Trainer
    3. Consultant
