This is I Liq Chuan
I Liq Chuan is an internal martial art based on Taiji and Zen principles. It places a strong emphasis on awareness, which is of course preceded by mindfulness. I Liq Chuan in America is directed by Master Sam Chin. I have been studying this art for a couple of months now and just attended a workshop with Master Chin. It was amazing. I Liq Chuan does not focus on applications or choreographed martial simulations as much as it does skills and priniciples. Yet it has a much stronger martial focus than most Taiji schools, at least as we know them in America. I am finding this to be a great compliment to my Taiji studies. For the time being I can only devote a small amount of time to I Liq Chuan training, primarily because of logistics and distance. But I see this as real discovery for me. Stand by for more.
