Grand Master Xu's Seminar 2009

This year we had yet another successful seminar with Grand Master George Xu. This year GM Xu focused on the arts of Chen Style Tai Chi and 10 Animal Hsin Yi while focusing on the following principles:

1. How to have chi go completely through the body.
2. How to harness Gravity Power.
3. How to have the "Third Hand"-meaning how to use the complete body in every movement and total body spiraling power.
4. Keeping all of the joints loose and opened.
5. How to Expand and contract the body and chi.

One of the great things about Grand Master Xu is hi ability to demystify high level martial arts and explain them in terms of applied physics and kinesiology. If you missed this years seminar it is time to get ready for next year!

But that wasn't all! In the week prior to the seminar Vincent Lynch of One Hand Video and China's Living Treasures came to our facility to film Grand Master Yu Xiao Lin performing the lost art of Yang Ban Hou Tai Chi. This was a special treat this art is the missing link between Chen and Yang Style Tai Chi.

And last, but certainly not least, at this event Master Croley and Shifu Green were greatly honored to be named as Indoor Students to GM Xu. This means that we are now privy to all of the secrets that are not taught to outsiders or outer gate students.

Once again, what this boils down to is that with our connection to Grand Master Xu and the other WACIMA Masters, we are able more and more able to offer you the highest level of martial arts education that exists in the world. For this we are greatly appreciative to GM Xu for his kindness and generosity.
