Description
Taijiquan is Internal Alchemy in motion, and the Taiji Qigong Form and supplemental exercises in Tai Ji Qi (Volume One of the Chen Kung Series) represent the very foundation for the Internal Alchemy aspects in the practice of Taijiquan. The information in Stuart Alve Olson's six-volume Chen Kung Series, available to the Chinese reader for nearly eighty years, covers the entire Yang family system of Taijiquan practice and philosophy. Chen Kung's original Chinese book, published in 1936, is a distinct and invaluable resource that is now accessible to English readers through the brilliant translation work and insightful commentary of Stuart Alve Olson. No matter what style of Taijiquan (Tai Chi Chuan) you practice or what level of skill you have achieved, the Chen Kung Series will greatly broaden your knowledge and skills, as it is truly a "Master's Program" on the art of Taijiquan.
