Your Instructor
I am Brian Sutton, the owner/instructor/Sifu of Roswell Tai Chi. In 2005, I established Roswell Tai Chi school as a way of sharing the numerous benefits and principles of this life enhancing practice. I currently teach the Yang style 8 step form, Yang style 60 movement Tai Chi form, Guang Ping 64 form, push hands, Tai Chi sword and cane forms as well as a variety of Qigong sets.

Students coming to Roswell Tai Chi have a variety of objectives. Some seek to improve balance and physical fitness. Others seek empowerment through a self-defense program and many are looking to boost immunity while relieving stress. Whatever your Tai Chi quest is, we would like to help you on your path. We welcome beginning and experienced Tai Chi and Qigong students.
My Tai Chi journey began as a child observing a group of people practicing Tai Chi in a nearby park. This experience lead me to my first Tai Chi teacher; Grandmaster Y.K. Lee. He agreed to train me in the Guang Ping 64 (lost Yang form) tradition. One of my more notable and recent teachers, Grandmaster William CC Chen, is one of the world's foremost authorities of the art of Tai Chi. Grandmaster Chen was one of the original students of the Great Grandmaster Cheng Man-Ch'ing.

Roswell Tai Chi offers group, private and semi-private classes. Roswell Tai Chi also offers classes for small business/corporate wellness and special events in our studio, parks or at

Our Studio
The Roswell Tai Chi School and studios are located at the Sweet Apple Marketplace, within the township of Roswell, Georgia. Anchored by a red roofed gazebo, the cluster of shops and businesses are reminiscent of historic seaside villages the architect visited during his travels. Our school's studios are located in the spacious second floor loft space easily accessed by stairs and elevator.





Most Asked
Questions
​
1. What should I bring to class?
​
A. No mats or extra equipment are needed for the practice of Tai Chi or Qigong. We suggest students wear comfortable loose fitting clothing with pants hemmed below the knee plus socks or light flexible soled shoes for indoor use.
2. What's the difference between Tai Chi and qigong?
A. Qigong (energy work) is a broad term covering a wide range of exercises both moving and static that serve the purpose of cultivating Qi (life energy) throughout the body. Qigong movements and postures move laterally much like calisthenics. Tai Chi (T'ai Ji Quan) is one of the three main internal martial arts from China (Bagua Zhang and Hsing I Quan being the other two).
Tai Chi is performed in a sequential pattern of movements and postures called a form. The Tai Chi form progresses from beginning, middle to end, much like a dance routine...
​
3. Q. How do I know I've found the right Tai Chi sifu/teacher?
​
A. Traditionally, the lineage of one's teacher was the determining factor of one's knowledge of the art... Some other considerations would include: does the teacher display the traits and characteristics that he/she instructs. For example, the teacher tells you to relax, but is the teacher/sifu relaxed?
Also, look for a balance between explanation and application within the instruction you're receiving. Observe if the teacher is meeting the students where they are at regarding their current skill level. Notice if the teacher is equally instructing the guiding principles of Tai Chi and Qi Gong in addition to the choreography of the Tai Chi form and
Qigong sets.
