I am in the process of getting my next set of programs together- I have ideas of what to present, but thought I would get some input from the community- What aspect is most important/interesting to you all? What would you like to see emphasized? Let me know in the poll, and in comments if you would like as well.

I loved the warm up. It was a perfect gentle way to get the circulation, nerves, respiratory system and joints to wake up.

I am starting a Library of good examples on YouTube of Taiji and Bagua, not exhaustive, just good stuff I have come across- let me know what you think, or post some yourself!

Human beings give off energy in the infra red spectrum, due to our body heat. Infra red is a spectrum of energy that is just below the lowest frequencies we can see, thus, this light is not visible to the human eye. If we could see infra red light, then when we close our eyes, we would be surrounded by light, far more than what comes to us from the visible light of the world around us. It is there, from us, all the time. We are beings of light. It's just a light we cannot see. Unless we look deeply for it. Interesting.

The concept of Myofascial Spiral Trains is very interesting in light of Structure and Compression work. The Double Helix representation of the motion pathways through the body at the level of fascia can be well and truly felt in stance and forms training. One reason the Internal Martial arts, and QiGong (umm.. and Yoga too for that matter) are trained slowly is to find these pathways of efficient and coordinated movement. They are found also by gymnasts, weightlifters, soccer players etc. all movement uses these connections. But often these are reflexive, fast twitch, sometimes nearly unconscious movements, trained and honed as bursts of speed by repetition and ever greater force generation, usually concentrated in muscle. The slow ways of opening them become extremely conscious, deeply felt and ultimately very powerful, as martial arts, as dynamic kinesiology, as tools in physical therapy and rejuvenation. Worth a look.
