Dr. Ma Yueh Liang (August 1, 1901 - March 13, 1998) was of Manchurian descent and a top disciple of Wu Chian Chuan (Jianquan). He emphasized resiliency and flexibility in Push Hands which is the highest level application of T’ai Chi Ch’uan (Taijiquan) as a martial art. He also advocated Listening (Ting Jing) and Precision (Zhun Que) over Force (Gan). Push Hands, like the intricacies of the T\\'ai Chi forms, is not learned overnight. While there are enormous benefits and insights in the near term, utilizing Push Hands consistently is the longer road, and very often less traveled by.
The T’ai Chi Power Combo! Our T’ai Chi Power Combo combines Two Complete Video Series in One: The Power Push Hands Video Series (Single Hands, Double Hands, Moving Push Hands, and Self-Defense Concepts) with The Wu T’ai Chi Power Training Video Series (includes 3 Wu Style T’ai Chi Inner Door Sets, Hand and Spear Power Cultivation, Deriving Power from Form’s Practice, and Integrating Power in Push Hands)
We have combined two of our best stand alone Chi Kung instructional videos to create the Chi Kung Duo (Ancient vs. Modern).The Swimming Dragon Chi Kung, is thought to have originated with the Yellow Emperor, and, with one look at its shapes and simplicity of movements (based on the Five Elemental Phases) it\\\'s easy to conclude that this may very likely be something special that has survived the ages-not to mention the fact that some people swear by the wonders it does for their spine and posture. The Soaring Crane Chi Kung was created by Zhao Jin Xiang in the 1970s, and is one of the most popular forms of Chi Kung the world over. With its specific focus on therapeutic points, patience, and stillness in movement, it rivals the chi cultivation sets of the ancients. The unique "sixth section" (or, Advanced Meditation) is a marvel amongst any and all Chi Kung practices. NEW to this series is the "seventh section" or Walking Methods. This completes this series and supports comprehensive instruction for students and viewers. While we don\\\\\'t advocate practicing two types of Chi Kung at the same time, these two popular and useful forms of Chi Kung practice, that we have combined in the "Chi Kung Duo" are certainly worth utilizing to compare, contrast, and ultimately cultivate.
