- U3865IEjosv0 contributionsThe essence of martial arts.Amazing experience. This first lesson gives an overview of the important internal and external aspects of martial arts. Learning this near by the Temple of heaven brings you back to the ancient China. Thank you!Written 27 January 2025
- Mie M0 contributionsEverything you can wish in an introduction to Kung Fu.We had a wonderful training session in the park with Lui. He thought us the very cool 5-step form, introduced us to Tai Chi, and explained to us the movement techniques as well as philosophy behind every move. It was very interesting and gave us much insight, which I hope to use at home in my Taekwondo training.Written 6 July 2024
- Discover367186634120 contributionsVery happy I booked this tour!!!Eric is a great guide and speaks English very well! He knows a lot of fascinating stories and facts about the Temple of Heaven and the park around it. The Tai Chi lesson was amazing and inspired me to take regular lessons in the future. I highly recommend this tour!!!Written 6 June 2024
- Alisonjg0 contributionsBrilliant experienceWe booked a private Tai Chi lesson with Eric our Tai Chi Master - he was brilliant, we enjoyed every minute of the 90 minute lesson and would recommend this to anyoneWritten 5 May 2019
- miriana890 contributionsGreat experienceMy husband and I had Tai chi and Kung Fu lessons. Eric is a excellent Master and before the booking he gave us all the information we needed, we highly recommend him.Written 5 May 2019
- Unknown0807080708070 contributionsKUNG FU CLASSWe took the kung fu class. Eric (THE TEACHER) he was great he taught us a lot. Eric met us at the local park. We strongly recomend Eric for Kung FU class. He knows what he is teaching about.Written 4 May 2019
- Rudy C0 contributionsa taste of TaiChiI have frequently encouraged people to try TaiChi, and always said "one day" I'll try it myself. Well, my first lesson in the park at Temple of Heaven, led by a master, was truly informative and encouraging to continue.Written 23 August 2018
- Violette H0 contributionsTai Chi Lesson Part 2I had the pleasure of seeing Master Eric for the second time a few weeks back while I was in Beijing on business. My friend and I were able to coordinate a private lesson very close to our hotel in a local park. Just as before (first lesson was 2 years ago w Eric), Eric was very gracious, informative and taught us several moves to help us continue on the study of Tai Chi. Despite it being a full 2 years he remembered previous hang ups I had, corrected them easily and allowing me to build on my intro lesson. My only regret is not being able to spend more time in practice with him during my brief trip as it was the MOST relaxing part of my entire trip. If you are at all unsure, don’t be! Master Eric is great and the time spent will allow you to take home a souvenir that will continue to be of use for many years to come!Written 23 July 2018
- JrnyJunkie0 contributionsPrivate Tai Chi master.We had a private Tai Chi class on the grounds of the Temple of Heaven. Very memorable, such a lovely day.Written 2 November 2017
- Julie R0 contributionsGreat Tour!I signed up for a private 1/2 day tour of the Temple of Heaven and a Tai Chi Lesson. Eric met me at my motel even though it was out of the way. It was a beautiful day to walk through the temple grounds and Eric was very knowledgeable about the history associated with the Temple. I especially enjoyed his explanation of the different religious beliefs. The Tai Chi lesson was relaxing. Eric was very patient in explaining the different moves. I would highly recommend this tour and the Tai Chi class.Written 1 July 2017
- Tami P0 contributionsWhat a great experience!We had the good fortune to experince a Tai Chi class with Eric! It was just my husband and myself as well as our son and our daughter in law. He met us at our hotel and then walked us to the beautiful Jingshan Park for our class. The setting was amazing and the late Sunday afternoon with people wandering could not have been more perfect. He started us slowly and explained the meaning and benefits of Tai Chi. We started to do the movements with him and he was so patient in helping us since this was our first experience with Tai Chi. We loved every minute and couldn't have asked for a kinder, gentler yet super fun Master to enjoy this with. We highly recommend this and can't say enough about what a perfect afternoon we had with Eric!Written 23 April 2017
- oddjohanovesen0 contributionsAn awsome workout hour with Eric LiuMe and my friend wanted to Try Tai Chi While we were in Beijing, so we contacted Eric Liu personally via our hotel and arranged a class. We met him at a famous peacefull and open public Tai Chi park not far from our hotel (Novotel Peace). There he showed us not only to do the movements you must do, but also why you do Tai Chi, and taught us the history behind this art. I recommend to take this class if you are in beijing, it is something you just must try. and with a great patient teacher who takes his time to learn you the Tai Chi, you will master the basic techniques really fast.Written 15 July 2016
- Steffen Petro S0 contributionsExellent TimeExeptionally teacher in tai chi. It is very easy to understand his english. He also takes time to teach you the moves and give a explanation on why and how to use it in real life. I'll recommend all to take a class.Written 2 July 2016
- Zoltán S0 contributionsEye-opening introduction to Tai ChiMy friend and myself had a short time before our flight back home to meet Eric in the Temple of Heaven for a introductory lesson. He gave us an excellent demonstration of Tai Chi in about an hour, and inspired us to start our own journey to discover it more in-depth back home.Written 7 May 2016
- Chandra R0 contributionsTai Chi and Martial ArtsThis was a wonderful experience with Master Eric. I did not expect to learn about martial arts in the intro session, but this made a lot of sense and I felt extremely grateful to have an opportunity to do this with a group from WDHB Strategic Learning. I highly recommend Eric based on his calm demeanor and pleasant manner of speech.Written 7 April 2016

We booked this experience on our last day in Beijing. Yu, our instructor, met us at the East Gate of the Temple of Heaven as specified, though we were a few minutes late due to the morning traffic. We had a couple of extra people, and he was easily able to accommodate this and negotiated a fair rate for them to join the class. We went to an area where many community members were practicing Tai Chi, and there was plenty to room for our class. Yu led us through a sequence, then proceeded to break down the sequence and explain the history and rationale of Tai Chi as well as some aspects of Chinese Medicine. It was a truly awesome experience, and my only regret is that I do not live in Beijing so that I could continue to study with Yu. I would highly recommend this experience.

While reading many reviews, it seemed as though we would be learning from Eric. This was not the case. He walked into the park with us and introduced us to some ladies who were already doing Tai Chi. He then left. The ladies doing Tai Chi were very nice, accomodating, encouraging and willing to take time in teaching us however, it did seem like we paid for an introduction considering some other tourists (taking photos) who hadn't paid were encouraged to join in with the group. All that being said, we enjoyed ourselves and were looked after which warrants a 3 star review. I would not rate Eric.

I am sorry Kiel, this is Eric replying you!
I suppose there was a misunderstanding between I and our teacher. I assigned one of our best teacher to intruct you tai chi that day, but it seemed she didn't understand me well and how the class goes.. she is a good teacher too and had good teaching experience. I send you the short message through mobile later and asked you how the class went..you answered me “ it was good" , then I assumed everything went well as usual. Today I saw your review on internet and realize what had happened. I hope, if wish you, leave me you bank account, I will refund you the money. Sincerely apologize here and hope you could forget this unpleasant story. I will communicate with our teacher and improve our teachings in future, thanks you for your review.
