Still buzzing after an immersive in internal foundations with the Cosmic octopus himself master Tony tyler. Some people noted they got more insight in a weekend than in years of internal practice. Thankyou for the open and high level teaching. Everyone was stoked. We were lucky to have you this way. Great energy! Thankyou Adrian for herding people and ensuring it came together. Joey nishad for comedy and positive vibes. Now to implement fine tunings in a system that engenders health, vitality and spring power all at once. A great weekend with awesome people. A few people who were missed that weekend who were unable to come that we hope to connect with again.. #internalarts #taichi #kungfu

Had a fantastic time and a boost of skills attending a two day Mien Gong Fu workshop taught by Master Anthony Tyler last weekend in Nimbin NSW. Saturday was great Sunday even better as more very skilled people showed up from near and far to attend and participate.

I'm really looking forward to next weekend for the Buderim Saturday push hands session. Then Sunday, Craig Mallet is having one of his very insightful internal workshops in Pomona Qld. https://checkout.square.site/merchant/0F7MV9AZ2B9VK/checkout/MR2HRBZN7IME76JEREIIXVMQ I would encourage anyone who has an interest in internal development to attend Craigs workshops and especially his annual retreat in Sept. https://craigmallett.com/arc-retreat/ Which I've attended twice but this year unfortunately unable to. It is well worth it!

He also had private lessons for 2 years with Grand Master Chen Xiaowang, the present linage holder of the original form of Chen Style Taiji Quan that the other styles of Taiji is derived from.

Good session yesterday with a couple of additional guests learning about the inner workings and the difference between using muscular force and internal power. Couple of hours of fun then off to the Coffee Club for drinks and conversation where we were joined by a couple more practitioners.

Going to Phuket, Thailand this weekend for 2 week large frame tai chi workshop conducted by Adam Mizner. This should add yet another layer and deeper understanding of the inner workings in my journey. Very fortunate to have good people I can connect to in this group, the West End push-hands group and other very skilled individuals, to further develop my skills as well as teaching. That is the key to good progress for oneself and others.
