"When doing the form seek perfect wholeness" - Yang Luchan
Below are valuable resources that have helped me and people I know enhance their practices. Our knowledge and skills have been handed down to us from generations of masters and teachers who have turned their Minds inward and sought their true nature through dedicated practice, training and study. It is up to us as true practitioners of the Internal Martial Arts to do likewise by turning our Minds inward and seeking the perfect wholeness that Yang Luchan speaks of.
It is my firm wish that the information on this website will help all of us on that journey to wholeness and bring a new vision, a new dedication to the Internal Martial Arts. Hopefully, all of us will continue to practice, train and study like those masters who have gone before us and share our knowledge and skills with those who will follow.
FOUR MUST READS
Whether you are a beginner or a longtime practitioner of the Internal Martial Arts, these are four books that you simply must own and refer to time and time again until your skills become highly developed. You will find vital points in these texts that your teacher never disclosed and probably was unaware of. The first two are from the master, himself, Professor Cheng Man Ching. Both are essential guides to Tai Chi practice and Self-Cultivation. The next two are by Jou Tsung-Hwa. Master Jou's work, The Dao of Taijiquan, is an incomparable road map to achieve the physical, mental and spiritual skills that can take your practice to the highest level. His Tao of Meditation is one of the best books on Taoist meditation and Enlightenment.
