A Bit About Me

Jenny’s interest in Tai Chi began 30 years ago when she was studying Goju Ryu karate with Tino Ceberano Martial Arts Academy. The concept of strength through softness was intriguing and soon the physical and cognitive benefits of slow, flowing movements became apparent.
Over the years, and under the guidance of a number of Masters, Jenny has become an accredited instructor in bare hand and weapon forms.
Jenny is an approved Tai Chi (sword) instructor with WTQA and she is the first accredited instructor for Wudang Bamboo Form, developed by Master Su Rule. In 2016 Jenny hosted Master Jesse Tsao for his first trip to Australia. During this time he awarded her as an accredited Tai Chi Bang (Advanced) instructor. More recently, in 2019, Jenny spent some time in China at the Beijing Sports University studying under Professor Yang.
Jenny has competed in a number of WTQA competitions, winning gold medals in Beijing 24 and 32 Sword forms and bronze in Eight Immortal Flute.

Jenny is a natural communicator. Her expertise as a trained educator shows in the way she teaches and she teaches the finer details of learning tai chi - the mental, spiritual, physical and emotional. Jenny is very generous with her knowledge and oh so patient.

Jenny Harrison has a skill for presenting each of the tai chi forms in a step by step progression that enables all students to make considerable progress. The class atmosphere Jenny cultivates is always nurturing, inclusive and encouraging with students ever ready to celebrate each other's achievements. Support materials for home practice can be purchased through the school and have proved to be an invaluable aid. Free tai chi sessions in the park over the summer months are a popular social activity and just one of the many ways Jenny demonstrates great dedication to running her school. I highly recommend the School.

Jenny is an amazing tai chi teacher. She is clear in her communications to the group. She is an authentic, kind and warm person who assists the group in feeling confident in their own tai chi skills.
