April 27th World Taiji Day?!

I’m told April 27th is world Taiji Day.

How strange to me that it is just one day!

I think you’ll find those who make the effort to find their inner world through Taiji are influencing their outer world, not just on one day of the year, but every day and every moment of their lives…

Taiji Seminar Experience by Karateka

We had a visit to my recent Taiji seminar from a couple who train in Karate researching the origins to one of their Kata back to our ‘Er Shi Ba’ or ‘QuickFist’ as we call it.


Sue writes a regular blog of her experiences in the world of martial arts.
