The Tai Chi Gringo

Join me as I document my ongoing journey exploring Chen Taijiquan Gong Fu. This blog examines the internal architecture of Chen Taiji: the body method, the physiology of structural change, and the cultivation of integrated whole-body power. Much of the writing focuses on how these principles express themselves in movement, internal health, refined perception, and the development of functional capability.

​

Alongside this, an additional focus is the pressure-testing and refinement of my Taijiquan within an MMA context. The goal is to map the full spectrum of Chen Gong Fu, from deep internal development and its lifelong benefits, to practical expression and real-world combat.
