 Taijiquan
Diane is a longtime student (over 20 years)
of famed US Taiji pioneer and martial arts author Robert W.
Smith. She began her studies in Washington, DC, first learning
the Solo Form and then Sensing Hands (Push Hands) or Tuishou.
Sensing Hands is the martial application of the Taiji postures.
Concurrently, Diane studied with Benjamin
Lo of San Francisco and Maggie Newman of NYC, from whom she
learned the Solo Sword
Form and Dueling or Sword Play. Diane remains appreciative
of Mr. Benjamin Pang Jeng Lo’s continued teachings.
Diane received direct permission to
teach from Mr. Smith and has been doing so for over 15 years,
first in Washington, DC
and now in Rochester. She brings her distinct knowledge of
the Chinese Healing Arts into her classes, also sharing her
more than 30 year's study of the Asian philosophies, including
Taoism and Buddhism.
Diane writes and speaks widely in
the Western New York area on topics of health and well-being,
particularly meridian medicine. She has had articles on T’ai
Chi and health published in national and international magazines.
Additionally, for over 10 years Diane has
been teaching Taiji at OASIS in
Rochester, NY, for those who are 50 years and older.
She is an authentic Taiji teacher,
joyfully sharing her passion for the elegant movements of
Cheng Man-ch’ing’s
(Zheng Manjing) Yang Style, Short Form, Taijiquan.
