Thank you, Grandmaster Baugh, for teaching me Tai Chi Chuan, which includes etiquette, stretching, Chan Ssu Jin (Silk Reeling Exercises), Yow Jin (Waist Training Exercises), forms and posture work, standing meditation, push hands, as well as the fan and sword techniques. It is absolutely essential to understand the 13 Postures, reverse breathing, and both Neigong and Weigong methods of Qigong.

Tai Chi and Qigong are becoming increasingly popular and are recognized by professional athletes, judges, lawyers, doctors, UFC fighters, professors, and universities across the nation, demonstrating their effectiveness for stress management and physical health.

Special Thanks to Sifu Nick, the Lohan Lion Dancers, and the Lohan Warriors.
