MY TAI CHI CLASSES<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

TAI CHI BOOK\u00a0<\/a>
\nMy new book on the history of Tai Chi is out \ud83d\ude42 It was based on my thesis which I wrote in university, but since then the Li Family Manuscripts were discovered in the Tang Village in the Henan Province. This added a whole new dimension to my research and I am proud to present the original versions of the Tai Chi classics and other good stuff I’ve digged out and translated.<\/p>\n

I CHING BOOK<\/a>
\nWhen I have previously been introduced to the I Ching it has never made any sense to me. I could never understand people’s fascination with this confusing book. But in 1991 I was in New York and was invited to visit the Tai Chi master Da Liu, he was then 87 years old. Da Liu encouraged me to study the I Ching and gave me old coins and his own book on the I Ching.
\nAfter having read Da Liu’s translation some parts of the text actually began to make sense. I supplemented with John Blofeld’s translation and of course Richard Wilhelm’s. I was fascinated, but I also realized that there were so many places that obviously made no sense and were not correctly translated. So I decided that one day I would make an even better translation.
\nTHE CORE<\/a>\u00a0is a short and more handy version of the I Ching.<\/p>\n

DAO DE JING<\/a>\u00a0 I have made a translation of the Dao De Jing which I am very proud of.<\/p>\n
