Tai Chi With Attitude: December 2006
http://taichiwithattitude.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Tai Chi With Attitude. A modernistic americanized approach to a meditative traditional Martial Art. Holistic, but without the New Age mysticism, Taoist, yet pragmatic. A completely different, real-world approach to an esoteric and difficult art. Saturday, December 23, 2006. MA HONG ON YOUTUBE. My sifu, Dr. Johnny Jang, greatly admires Ma Hong, and has adopted many of his smaller movements (in the following clip for instance, Ma Hong adds a sliding step to the hidden punch movement). One of the ongoing is...

Tai Chi With Attitude. A modernistic americanized approach to a meditative traditional Martial Art. Holistic, but without the New Age mysticism, Taoist, yet pragmatic. A completely different, real-world approach to an esoteric and difficult art. Tuesday, May 09, 2006. THE POST ABOUT POSTING. Posting is an integral (or should be, IMO) aspect of training in Tai Chi.

Tai Chi Elements virtual training environment | Spiralwise - Tai chi from a scientific perspective
http://taichiblog.spiralwise.co.uk/2012/11/tai-chi-elements-virtual-training.html
Friday, 2 November 2012. Tai Chi Elements virtual training environment. Thanks very much to my friend, and reader, Ashley for pointing this out to me]. An interesting kickstarter proposal for a new virtual environment for training in tai chi. Is currently open for backers. The idea seems to be that it's a virtual world where people can study 3D models of "Tai Chi masters" developed through motion capture technology. For example to match your body positions to that of the motion capture model. We relaunch...

The love of chi | Spiralwise - Tai chi from a scientific perspective
http://taichiblog.spiralwise.co.uk/2013/05/the-love-of-chi.html
Friday, 3 May 2013. The love of chi. In a previous post. I discussed the analogy of chi and love. Following a conversation I had recently, I was reminded of this analogy and thought I would spend some time to elaborate on it, as I find it to be quite powerful. The nature of what chi. I believe that by considering the analogy that chi is like love, it becomes obvious which questions are meaningless and enlightens us all, validating both the scientific and the spiritual viewpoints. Again only in a metaphor...

Internal arts resources | Spiralwise - Tai chi from a scientific perspective
http://taichiblog.spiralwise.co.uk/p/internal-arts-resources.html
I thought it would be worth having a permanent page that describes some of the books, websites and general resources that have helped me along the way. Other blogs and Links. At the bottom of this site you will find an automatically updated list of some of the other Internal arts related blogs that I follow. Some of my particular favourites are:. I have a great deal of respect for Mike and his explanantions. Smile breath and go slow". An extensive resource of information about tai chi. Finally in my litt...

Chi is not energy | Spiralwise - Tai chi from a scientific perspective
http://taichiblog.spiralwise.co.uk/2011/09/chi-is-not-energy.html
Tuesday, 20 September 2011. Chi is not energy. Humans can't transmit energy like this. This is a fundamental question of the internal arts. To my mind is it also the root cause of why Westerners are sceptical of practices such as yoga and tai chi. Internal arts teachers rabbit (or should that be parrot) on about chi being energy (as they were instructed), but chi is not energy and I will explain why. Can I put chi into an energy chain as I have just done in that example? The concept of chi is no longer a...

A completely different, real-world approach to an esoteric and difficult art. Friday, August 25, 2006. FUNNY, BUT TOO TRUE. From youtube is perhaps the funniest take-off on martial arts I've ever seen. Sadly, there's many, many pretenders out there. Funny as it is, I can see this actually happening.

Robotics framework | Spiralwise - Tai chi from a scientific perspective
http://taichiblog.spiralwise.co.uk/p/robotics-framework.html
While trying to think about tai chi in a scientific context, I came up with the idea of a robotics thought experiment framework. In other words, what would it mean for robots to do tai chi? In order to train a robot (which is essentially a computer) to do tai chi, hippy style energies waffle wouldn't work. Instead you would have to use precise algorithms, definitions and terminologies and have to explain tai chi in the language of science. But for robotics. If you could do tai chi push hands with a r...
