If you are adept in an external martial art, such as kung fu and karate, tai chi and other internal arts will expand your arsenal of fighting techniques. More importantly, they will help you learn how to apply chi to the movements you already know, and thereby increase your martial creativity and power.
I recently returned from a three week instructor training in a chi gung practice called “Gods Playing in the Clouds”. This intensive was held at Menlo College near San Francisco and I’d like to share some details about my experience.
