Master Moy’s Vision and our Mission 梅連羨師傅的遠見和我們的任務 |
|
We are guided by the vision of our late Sifu, Master Moy Lin-Shin who foresaw:
A world without suffering from illness
Master Moy frequently referred to the “four stages of life” as birth, aging, sickness and death, Although birth, aging, and death are obviously inevitable, sickness can be prevented. With diligent practice, Full Extension Tai Chi and Lokhupbafa can help reduce sickness and prevent the suffering many of us would otherwise experience.
Our Mission
This is the mission of all members of The International Association of TaiChi and LokHup Academies
Raise public awareness of the benefits of Tai Chi and Lokhupbafa
Train volunteer instructors to teach Tai Chi, focusing on seniors to help alleviate their suffering
Provide technical, financial and moral support to former students of Master Moy so that they can once again help others by teaching Tai Chi and Lokhupbafa
The last statement is especially important to us, since any increase in the number of teachers will increase the number of people benefiting from Tai Chi ten-to twenty-fold. This way we can move toward realizing Master Moy’s Vision more effectively
IATLA welcomes all former students of Master Moy Lin-Shin to join. Together we can achieve a better understanding of his teachings.
============================================== Our Logo The traditional Yin Yang symbol rotates clockwise but Master Moy chose to have it set counter-clockwise representing that his tai chi can reverse the natural aging process. We chose the Yi Ching hexagram symbol of T’ai (Yin trigram on top of Yang trigram), which represents harmony, peace and goodwill, because it embodies the spirit of our organization. These two symbols, intrinsic to our association, are combined in our logo. |

July 27, 2008: Twenty-eight of our members were videotaped doing the Tai Chi set for a TV show about 24 hours in Toronto, to be aired in the spring of 2009 on OMNI Television. The shooting took place at Metro Hall Park in Toronto, on an absolutely beautiful morning. |
