Infolad1 Posted July 8, 2015 Here's my background: I've been doing the Chinese Internal Martial Art of Tai Chi Quan for over 16 years, since 1999. (Yes, Tai Chi Quan is a Martial Art I've acquired Internal arts skills in the Wu-Tang system of Grandmaster Liu Yun-Chiao, including Old Form Yang Style Tai Chi Quan, Old Form Chen Style Tai Chi Quan, Baguazhang, Standing Meditation, Long Fist, & Tai Chi Qigong. I also do Internal Alchemy, and Iron Body / Iron Crotch Nei-Gong, as taught to me by Grandmaster Tu Jin-Sheng . I've been certified by my Sifu to teach Yang Style Tai Chi Quan, which I've done for close to 5 years. Since 1999, I've also taught weekly classes in qigong, theurgy, meditation, stress management, and nutrition to the general public, and corporate clients. I've won the following awards: 1999 1st Place – Lightweight Division Push Hands 1999 Bronze Medal – Push Hands 1998 1st Place – Lightweight Division Push Hands I'm continuing the work to be certified in all aspects of the Wu-tan system. I'm a frequent contributor on the lonemanpai forum, and count SOTG, joeblast, Trunk, & others as both Brothers, and fellow travelers on the path. I was very impressed by TTB posters TheLerner, GrandmasterP, Brian, Balance., & silent thunder, who gave such thoughtful, nuanced, & funny replies on a mopai thread here. I thought, "these guys are cool. I could hang with these guys". So I've registered here. My philosophy can be broken down to: "Does It Work?", "Can You Show It?", and "Can You Teach It?" Thanks to my wonderful teachers, I can answer yes to all three. If you can't yet, that's cool. Practice DOES make perfect. I'm here to help others who need, and ask for help, to gather additional information, see if it works, and apply it to my knowledge base. I look forward to interacting with folks that are doing the work. When I'm not practicing Cheers! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
