Those who can do, teach...

Having passed a number of black belt gradings, you will discover that the art is deeper and richer than you expected.
As you learn how to break down the art, you may be encouraged to consider teaching.

If you are keen, your instructor will offer you new goals and challenges, testing your sincerity and your compassion, seeking to determine how earnest you are.

It will take a number of years for you to become a competent tai chi chuan teacher.

To become a skilled teacher you must be very committed to the art, possess great skill and be genuinely interested in the wellbeing and progress of other people.
Your ego must be quiet and you must have no desire to promote or perform.
A martial arts instructor needs humility and insight, not a desire for fame and attention.
