  • Effortless Power With The Chinese Internal Martial Arts - Chinese martial arts are divided into two types: the external and the internal. Definition of Internal Martial Arts External martial arts are the most common. They are found not just in China, but all over the world. They are called the hard styles, because the power they manifest is as hard as rock or steel.
  • How to Use Tai Chi Against Nasty Emails and Other Attacks - Tai Chi is known for slow, graceful movements. I practice Chen tai chi, which incorporates slow movements with bursts of power and speed. It's known as an "internal" art. Other martial arts that employ a lot of muscular tension and screaming (karate, TKD) are called "external" arts. When an attacker punches at an external martial artist, the punch may be blocked with a very muscular, hard block designed to do injury to the attacker.
  • There's Nothing Soft about Tai Chi - When the small tai chi master from China threw me to my basement floor, I realized the real power behind this misunderstood martial art. I laughed at how easily he threw me down.
  • Studying Martial Arts in the Video Age - The martial arts are full of legends--tales of masters who could fling a larger opponent across a room with the flick of a finger, or masters who could defeat a crowd of martial artists without being injured. One legend tells of a young student who wanted to learn a form (also called "kata") from a master. According to the legend, the master performed the sequence of movements one time, turned to the student and said, "I will be back in one year. At that time, you should have mastered this form!" One year later, the master returned and the student had, in fact, mastered the movements. And he didn't even have a DVD player!
  • How to Relax and Relieve Stress - How often do you feel stressed? If you're like most of us, it's several times a day. What do you think this is doing to your body?
  • The Improvisation of Tai Chi - With tai chi it's very important to learn to color inside the lines. It's essential to do each move in just the right way.
