"Harnessing Inner Strength"
Monday, May 22, 2017
6:30-8:00pm
Presented by Master C.P. Ong
What is this mysterious power of 內勁 (Nei Jin) or Inner Strength and how does one learn to harness it to express both the Soft (Rou 柔) and Hard (Gang 刚) aspects of it?
In GongFu and TaiJi one often sees almost magical displays of effortless power - a slightly built older person effortlessly tosses a muscular young person across the room. Is this some physics-defying special power available only through mystical practices? Quite the contrary. It is a power rooted in physics and an understanding of how the body works. The magic of nejin's martial prowess flows from its dual nature - the softness and the hardness. Harnessing inner strength lies in the interchange between the soft and hard.
Join us as C.P. Ong, author of TaiJiQuan: Cultivating Inner Strength shows us how we can express the hard and soft of our own inner strength.
Master Ong is an official 12th generation lineage holder of Chen Style TaiJiQuan under Chen ZhengLei and Chen XiaoWang and has also trained extensively with Zhu TianCai. He played a large part in helping to introduce them to the USA and has worked diligently to promote Chen Style TaiJiQuan.
This special workshop is being offered as a follow up to our April 29th celebration of World Tai Chi Day, and there will be cake afterwards to mark the 35th anniversary for Nancy and Billy!
