WELLNESS & LONGEVITY MOVEMENT
There are many programs offerred from videos, DVDs, books, E-books, weekend workshops, etc. on Tai chi but there is no comparison to learning from a real master over time. Much is lost when attempting to learn from these methods. This education usually benefits the experienced practitioner who knows the nuances and can fill in the connective steps. However, if used in conjunction with a good martial arts teacher, then training is usually enhanced. Additionally, serious injury can be avoided when learning the correct way to enjoying a great and ancient discipline. I humbly encourage all to find out why and how to practice this art in order to truely receive life-sustaining benefits.

[I:http://mymartialartsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/AlCase18.jpg]This is going to be the weirdest tai chi lesson you have ever had. I’ve never had a lesson in tai chi, you see, but my tai chi chuan is the best. I don’t mean to be self serving, but let us see what you think after you have read how I came up with my tai chi.
I began learning tai chi with a book, Modified Tai Chi for Health by Lee Ying Arng. Every night I spent hours memorizing the form, trying to figure out the applications, trying to figure out the meaning. And, tell the truth, it didn’t mean much.

[I:http://mymartialartsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/AlCase8.jpg]One of the biggest mysteries come out of the eastern arts is internal energy. Wudan arts, like Pa Kua Chang and Tai Chi Chuan and Hsing i claim it. Supposedly it takes lifetimes to create this thing called internal energy, but when you get it you can defeat attackers with just a sigh and a wave of the palm.
Well, the truth of the matter is that internal energy, called chi, or ki, is in many arts, and if it is not, it can be put into any art easily. The principles of internal energy, you see, are very basic, though they take a certain amount of patience. So if you study kenpo or tae kwon do, or even boxing, then get set to step through the door, this article is going to lay out those principles.

[I:http://www.mymartialartsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/AlCase3.jpg]The truth of the art known as Tai Chi Chuan is inherent in a symbol that nobody understands. If you read to the end of what I have written here you will understand that symbol, and it will enlighten your practice of the martial arts. I am speaking of that grand terminus, the symbol we call yin yang.
The Yin Yang symbol is two fishes swimming is night and day is good and evil is…poppycock. The Yin Yang symbol has nothing to do with those poetic but truncated observations possible to our short lived species. The Ying Yang symbol is actually a quite mechanistic approach and empirical observation to our universe.

[I:http://www.mymartialartsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/AlCase8.jpg]When I was growing up, in the fifties, there was this strange beast called the martial arts. People could defend themselves with little effort, merely through the use of this strange energy called ki. Heck, women could beat up attackers, and even children could defend themselves using this thing called Karate.
I explored Kenpo, and Goju, and judo, and all manner of the combative arts, and I found little trace of this mysterious energy. Mostly, you just kicked and hit the air, and I began to believe that ki might be more of a looney tunes than a reality. Still, I heard the rumors of little men in pajamas able to do the most incredible thing which, even though they seemed a bit muscular, touted this strange energy called Ki.
