Peter Southwood was an ardent reader of Confucius.
His lessons reflected a kung fu approach to learning tai chi; very traditional.
Master Waller follows a more taoist model, coupled with ideas gleaned from his
professional teaching training course, practical experience and reading a lot of
useful books about teaching/zen/taoism/spiritual inquiry/martial arts.
Although Master Waller's methods are in many ways successful,
there is still a
lot to be said for the more traditional attitude.
