MAT Therapy
Myoskeletal Alignment Therapy (MAT) is a method of massage therapy that goes beyond the traditional massage. MAT helps to relieve chronic strain patterns in the body before they become pain patterns.
Hunyuan Tai Chi
Tai Chi Chuan (also spelled Taijiquan) is a unique martial art that often feels more like a therapy session than an exercise session. The goal of Tai Chi is to strengthen and rejuvenate the body through harmonizing through breath, movement and mental intention.
At the ChenCenter we focus primarily the Hunyuan 24 posture form of Grandmaster Feng Zhiqiang (1928-2012), the Practical Method Yilu of Chen Fake (1887-1957) as taught by Master Chen Zhonghua, and the Joyce 18 Form (learn more).
Classical Fencing
As a student of the Winston-Salem Fencing Academy you will learn to use the sword (starting with the foil) as they did in the 19th century when the sword was not only thought of as a scholarly pursuit but as an important means of self-protection and preparation for the duel.
Private lessons are taught on most Sundays and are specially tailored to the the student (10 year olds and older). We meet outdoors at Miller Park (weather permitting) and if the weather is not permitting, The Grande Sovereign Lodge of the Odd Fellows (if venue is open).
Self Defense for Women
ChenCenter partners with local individuals, businesses and organizations across the triad to teach women the Outfoxxed Program.
Our mission is to educate and motivate women to take a personal interest into their ability to protect themselves and the ones they love through courses designed to develop the whole individual: someone with acute awareness, a firm understanding of situational problem-solving and an ability to tap into her intuitive nature to circumvent violence.
