Sue Wain Holistic Healing & Tai Chi Clinical Hypnotherapist, Tai Chi Instructor, Reiki Master Teacher, Life Coach and Hypnotherapy Trainer with The World Federation of Hypnotherapists

After spending the first half of my life searching for who I am and where I fit in the world I have eventually come to the conclusion that life is a big lesson. The difference now is that I am making the lesson fun by finding interests that really enjoy and leave me feeling fulfilled physically and spiritually. My family & friends are my back bone and the support I get is amazing even though they sometimes wonder exactly what planet I'm on. My son Jack is wonderful (ok i'm a little biased) but he has never bought me any trouble. He is pretty grounded and I could not be any more proud. I joined The Ripley Tai Chi Club and have never looked back. I have made some real good friends and I can't thank Neil our instructor (and a good friend) enough for all the support he has given and for the gentle pushes I needed to give me the confidence to be who I am today. The path I was following started to lead me towards other like minded people and everywhere I turned seemed to be someone else who was traveling similar paths and had something to share. Before I knew it I was questioning what I could give back to the world and what I could do do to change peoples lives for the better. I started looking into energies and healing and signed myself up for a course in Reiki. I am now Reiki Master Teacher and it feels pretty great. After passing my Hypnotherapy Diploma with honours in 2016. I am pleased to announce that the World Federation of Hypnotherapists have asked me to take on the duty of Hypnotherapy Trainer. All i can say is it's a big world out there and I really am enjoying my life's journey.

Calling Home educating Families in Amber Valley! 🥋

At Benefit Martial Arts Academy on peasehill, Ripley, we’re exploring the idea of a daytime 6-week martial arts trial course specifically for home educated children.

We want to make sure we’re not excluding any children simply because they don’t attend mainstream school — and before we launch, we’d love to know…

👉 Is this something you want and need?

This course would focus on:
✅ Confidence & self-discipline
✅ Self Defence & Fitness
✅ Social connection in a positive, supportive environment.

If this sounds like something your child would benefit from (pardon the pun 😉)

Please comment below, send us a message or email your interest with your child’s age and what Days/ times that would work best for you.

📞 07508960236

📧 info@benefitmartialarts.co.uk

We’ll use this to build a waiting list and shape the programme around what families actually need.

🎁 Bonus: The first families to register interest will receive a welcome bonus if the course goes ahead!

Please like, share, or tag other homeschooling parents in Amber Valley — let’s make sure no child misses out 💙

IMPORTANT TAI CHI MESSAGE

Due to the snowfall and to keep everyone safe. We have decided to cancel class today Friday 9th of January.
We are looking forward to seeing you next week.

Tony has shared my Tai Chi journey throughout and will be missed by all who knew him 💛

Tony has shared my Tai Chi journey throughout and will be missed by all who knew him 💛

It is with profound sadness that we have learned of the loss of our good friend Tony Harrison. He passed on New Year's Eve, at home, surrounded by his loving family.

Tony joined our club very early on in 2010 and was a founding member of the original Ripley Group. It is no coincidence Tony is pictured front and centre on our website. Already an accomplished Kendo martial artist, he optimised both Tai Chi and our group. A truly humble Tai Chi player striving to always learn and encouraging friends and new students alike. We are incredibly grateful he shared a part of his journey with us.

Thank you, Tony.

December 17, 2025 marks the 5th anniversary when UNESCO officially inscribed Tai Chi Chuan on its Representtive List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Yang Family Tai Chi family embraces and spreads our art around the world.

Master Yang Jun is a 6th generation Yang family descendent and linneage holder. His greatest wish is to unite practitioners in China and the West into one big family where despite national borders and cross-cultural differences, everyone is linked together through their love of tai chi chuan.

Our Story

After spending the first half of my life searching for who I am and where I fit in, I have eventually come to the conclusion that life is one big lesson. The difference now is that I am making the lesson fun by finding interests that I really enjoy and leave me feeling fulfilled physically and spiritually.

The support I get from my family is amazing and I give thanks every day for their gentle guidance & for keeping my feet on the ground

I joined The Ripley Tai Chi Club and have never looked back. I have made some real good friends and I can't thank Neil our instructor (and a good friend) enough for all the support he has given over the years and for the gentle pushes I needed to give me the confidence to be who I am today.
