Semi-Private Kung-Fu lessons!!! $72 a month. Most schools are charging between $100-$120 a month these days. i train at my home so the price is low. You will have to work hard and not complain. "Kung-fu" means "hard work" and together it means "accomplishment". If you complain about traditional Kung-fu training the lesson will be over for the day. If this happens more than once the lessons will be over without refund. You will not be asked to do anything unreasonable, but you will not get watered-down training, like at most Kung-fu schools in America today. Contact me now and start training this week!

T'ai Chi, Yang Style (Big Frame/Old Style) Section 1 - INSTRUCTIONAL Video available NOW, $100.00 per copy, Pay Pal to [email protected]. Add a few dollars for shipping of DVD. What makes this different from other videos? This, like all of my videos, this is instructional in nature, and details the mechanics and internal intent of the forms, speaking also on the philosophy of the system, as well as fighting applications: ALL IN ONE VIDEO. These videos are $100.00 each. Unlike the typical $60.00-$70.00 mass produced videos that you can find of various martial arts forms, these will very intentionally tell you details which teachers tend to leave out of those sorts of videos. These will also include in that cost answers in email form of things you might need clarification on as you train from these!!! All six sections will be available, as will other Nei Jia and Qi Kung videos; all made in a similarly thorough manner of instruction. Peace.

Don't take Pine Pollen like Bee Pollen or you'll make a mess in your pants.

Pine pollen is the shit.

My friend, i am not challenging the notion that the Wai/Nei designation is a bit inaccurate (i have written an article on this myself). Your articles are good, i'm sure, and i will check them out (and will no doubt enjoy them). What i am disagreeing with is that at high levels those styles typically designated as "Nei Jia" do not converge. Chen T'aiji and Xingyi are so incredibly similar in many ways at high levels. Xiao Jiu Tien, which i am acquainted with but do not study, looks very much like Xingyi as well. Cheng Bagua and Ancient style T'aiji also overlap tremendously... i could go on with examples but the very fact that Chen, Pan-Ling blended Bagua and Xingyi so seemlessly into his T'aiji form (which blended Chen, Yang and Wu styles), empirically demonstrates how these styles - when trained with a different methodology - can resemble one of the others. That is, what is different between these styles is not so much the style but how you typically practice. T'aiji is not a slow art, it is just trained slowly. So naturally it will look different than an art that is trained fast. More later. Peace.

PM me if you would like solutions. Peace.

Martial Development, you have a pretty cool blog. i am curious which styles you have practiced, and for how long?

Hey there, i had an account here before but lost track of it, forgot what it was, what email address i used or something or another. In any event, i don't recall posting more than an intro so i am posting another with my new name on here... Anyway, just here collecting some data, reading some old threads now and then and more than likely going to put out some requests on the video borrowing library forum. Later!

The "Spleen" in TCM is actually more your "Pancreas." Peace.

There are a huge amount of expert martial artists trained in different styles that see commonalities. It doesn't mean, as the original poster suggested, that they are all the same, but there are great similarities of many styles. The very fact of Sun, Lu-T'ang coining the phrase "Nei Jia" for Xingyi, Bagua and T'aiji demonstrates this, and of course he was a master of all three... It was once he learned T'aiji that he saw the principles did not contradict and in many ways overlapped (and in all ways complemented). Peace.

Icke describes his own schizophrenic experiences in the prefaces of some of his books that he largely plagiarizes from Temple, Collins, Sitchen (obviously), Hancock, and many others. Most just haven't read the more legitimate authors to recognize that what Icke is peddling is second hand... As well, he also GROSSLY misrepresents and takes out of context Credo Mutwa; who folks on here SHOULD read on his own. Peace.

Bajiquan is dope. A good style to learn for T'aijiquan practicioners. Peace.

Your Shifu should teach you T'aijiQUAN martially and you should be taught how to apply the movements. If this is lacking then you should study a complementary style of traditional Kungfu, depending on your style of T'aiji, in order to complement your understanding. Peace.

Are you guys even remotely serious? You do know that David Icke is schizophrenic right? Peace.

Where can one train in Dummo in the West, from a teach who has actually attained something demonstrable? Peace.

If anyone has the video of the Bal'eiquan form i would like to discuss receiving a copy through PM. Write to me off the public forum to discuss. i am not interested in learning Nei Kung levels from you, just looking for the form. Thank you in advance if you (the appropriate individual with the tape), comes across or is informed about this. Peace.
