One of the students at the Chinese Shao-lin Center I go to is a cab driver and if you walk by within arms length of him, he'll tear ya up just to practice but he's a great guy for being 50 something and 230 some odd pounds.

Hi MaQingYi, You bet!! Same here! I have an excellent Sifu, who has Outstanding Sifu's that he trains with. We do reap the benefits of that! Tai Chi Chuan is my Martial Art! TaiChiFist

i must say that it is quite nice to hear from people who are also continuing genuine taiji education though :), its very reassuring

Hi MaQingYi, OK, I'll buy that one! No harm done. Thanks!! TaiChiFist

I think he was just referring to the view of taiji in the eyes of the public, yes there are amazing teachers still out there, but they are few and far between, you end up with a lot of airy fairy practitioners who think they know how to fight after doing the form and some push hands and they end up getting hurt, or further discounting taiji to the martial community

It is a long time irony to learn martial arts, use it for peace and not for fighting. Self-defense is one thing, but hopefully no one is out there picking fights or trying to one-up one another. Just be happy you are in good shape and have the peace that comes with that.
