August 2006 Table of Contents:

The August Newletter is split into four parts, as follows:

Part 1: Practicing Tai Chi:

  • I’ve completed the Short Form
    and a correction. What should I do
    next? - Page 2
  • After the Short Form, are there
    other forms to learn? - Page 2
  • Besides Push Hands and Fighting
    1, what other classes are there? - Page 2

Part Two: Tai Chi as a Martial Art:

  • I always thought that the reasons
    to do Tai Chi are only for health
    benefits. Is that all there is? - Page 2
  • In the June 2006 newsletter you
    mentioned rootedness in selfdefense.
    What exactly is it? - Page 3
  • So far you mentioned three
    elements in self-defense: yielding,
    Nei Kung or internal power, and
    rootedness. Is there anything else? - Page 3
  • Why should one engage in a
    practice aimed at hurting others? - Page 4
  • Does Tai Chi develop confidence
    in fighting? - Page 5

Part Three: Taoist Meditation:

  • What kind of Taoist meditation
    does Master Chu teach? - Page 5
  • Why is “quiet sitting” good for
    us? - Page 5
  • What other benefits does one
    gain from this type of meditation? - Page 5

Part Four: Questions From
Subscribers - More on Tai Chi and
Sex:

  • Can sex without release increase
    the body’s chi? - Page 6
  • Are there any scientific studies
    done on this subject to prove the
    theory? - Page 6
