October ’22 Fort Collins Chen Taijiquan Workshop was great ( #2)

The weather was sunny and actually quite warm (thanks global warming) bright fall leaves, much yellow and red.  A bit of fire and wine and a whole lot of practical application, form and drill practice made for a memorable, fulfilling and rather sore and exhausting experience. Looking forward to doing this again in Likely April. Thanks to all who endeavored.
Now we offer some old skool 1993 style super cool play by play secret mystery Taijiquan deadly techniques for your imaginative world:

It’s good to start young. Long term physical health habits, hard-won gems of detail in traditional Taijiquan Gongfu are difficult enough to find in adulthood. If one starts on this path early that is a lucky fate and can inspire an embodied active physical and energetic life.

Spring was slow and summer has been welcome. Much gongfu activity continues as students and family grows and progresses. We post a bit less these days. As we are not commercially oriented, we are mostly training methods and approach rather different from the majority and so not really “radio-ready” for the most part, but we are putting in the training to produce quality gongfu.

Interesting old view of what this g*t looked like, which I often passed on the way to Shifu's home in Shazi Kou in the early 2000's- looked very different of course.

Chen Shi Taijiquan Gongfu Jia Fort Collins Workshop #7 was a great time and finally a respite from the oppressive last year and a half.

Taijiquan form practice is not fighting practice or even about fighting. It is a technology for developing basic structures, skills and tools (weapons) that can be employed within combative practices. Employing such tools and skills in combative practices requires first having those trained skills and tools and then also having a teacher/coach to guide the ex*****on of those abilities in that context. It is hard enough to find someone to teach the authentic traditional structure, basics and tools these days, almost entirely extinct. Finding someone qualified to coach combative use is actually a lot easier, but many a charlatan present that fighting experience as a resume of traditional art, which it is most often not.

Traditional Taijiquan gongfu is a skillset that requires time and rather extreme dedication to develop. How to employ it is an additional path. The form practices have more use and value than just purely fighting. They make one FEEL great, constantly chasing shenfa, refining connection and power chain, cultivating energy and body mechanic.

After a long year+ of covidtimes, bleakness and waiting we are starting to emerge and begin to practice (together) again. We had an excellent long weekend of training form and applications, sorely missed, a group of new Tudi, and many old friends re-experiencing the community that was lost but not conquered.
We will take what we can get for the moment and make the most of it.

Interesting look at Feng Zhiqiang in 1996

This is an updated notice for those who are expressing curiosity and interest. This online learning arrangement has been ongoing since April. It is very successful and highly unique in its level of detail, quality control, personal attention, and of course difficulty.

Given those facts it is also not really a public offering, but a suitability and commitment based offering; this is for the right people in the right situation with the right intention. Generally, this means student with the right psychological conditions, lack of poor character, required amount of dedication/fortitude, ability to follow-through, and suitable need-conditions.
This means this is for people who need it and are ready for it -those who are not already committed to another curriculum/teacher/school. Those who already have other/better options should stick to those. This is too demanding for a sideline approach.
Those who's goal is the become a teacher of this art and make money (anytime in the mid-future) this is not for you.
Those who consider themselves 'free agents' hoping to get whatever they can from as many sources as possible this is not suitable either.

This is for those who really seriously want to learn this particular art, in this particular method from this particular teacher, because it is far too demanding and time/effort consuming to do for any other reason. That's all fair warning, and we have done well so far to keep the level of seriousness good, it works. For those who know what they want feel free to apply via letter/message of interest through the membersite or molingtaiji.com, or here, explaining your background, current situation and reasons for interest and hopes for the future with this art.
