Full-time tai chi?

[dingo]

Does anyone on this board know of any place either here in the West or on Mainland China or Taiwan where it is still possible to train in tai chi chuan full-time? It's not going to be an option for me anytime soon, but I'd still like to know if the possibility exists :-)

Bataan Faigao and Jane Faigao are Directors of the Traditional Eastern Arts Department at the Naropa Institute in Boulder. You can major in Tai Chi Chuan and obtain a four year degree from Naropa. They started studying Tai Chi in the 60s win Professor Cheng Man-ch'ing. Full time tai chi and a college degree...ah, to be 18 again. You can get more info from their web site.

Good luck.

THANK YOU BoulderStudent! That is exactly what I was hoping for! Now all I have to do is save up the incredible amount of money required to study in the US! :)
