Wonders of Shaolin Chi Kung

If you have a level shaolin chi kung this will aid your ability to harmonize your vital energy with the cosmic energy linking your physical development with your spiritual development.

Those who practice kung fu have found that doing chi kung has helped their martial art, things like iron shirt chi kung, iron palm etc. Chi kung and kung fu are meant to be practiced together improving your fighting skills, this section covers this in more detail If you practice kung fu and are not doing any chi kung I think you should look at learning some exercises and combining them with you kung fu. Classic kung fu which I used to do had the chi kung exercises integrated into the style so if you are looking for a kung fu school check if they have chi kung exercises in the syllabus.

Some practitioners have reported some amazing effects such as time travel and passing energy through walls. I myself know former kung fu seniors I used to train with years ago having some of those experiences.

If you are going to take up chi kung you must ensure you find yourself qualified experienced instructor. As they could be some side effects from wrong practice.

Movements of Health and Vitality and Longevity

This is a great short chapter providing you with information about how the Chinese look at the concept of health and energy covering mind, body and spirit.

There is truth in this, and exercise is a way of life no matter what age.

This section also has two of the most effective chi kung exercises fully explained with text and step by step pictures of Grandmaster Wong Kiew Kit performing those exercises. Chi kung is for everyone no matter on age or physical ability these exercises are ready for anyone to practice, exercise as I always mention to get the full benefits you will need to be consistent.
