Phoenix Mountain Tai Chi

“I told my students it's like going to your favorite store every day for years (Tai Chi) and suddenly you find a whole new room with even more delightful things to discover. ”

“I was looking for this kind of explanation! You answered my questions in a manner I could easily understand and followed up with effective demonstrations. ”

“I signed up for the [Fascia Mastery] course. At first, I was a little skeptical. I just finished lesson 4 and for me I think it's worth every penny. To be honest, I learned from a Sifu for 10 years and have never had this kind of knowledge. Thanks, Sifu Lin.”

“As a long-time martial arts practitioner and physiotherapist as well I recently completed Sifu Lin's Fascia Manipulation course online and I found it to be invaluable knowledge. The whole world is still only dwelling on muscles and leverage, but the fascia manipulation layer is an absolute game changer. I highly recommend his course.”

“As someone training BJJ for almost 10 years i know from experience that what is explained in these lessons exists and is the true way of attaining greater mastery over your own body and mind as well as over your opponent’s energy being projected on to you. It truly is fascinating what our bodies are capable of. I’m now practicing daily the 8 Silk Brocade Qigong as well as the Fascia course and managing to apply in real life sparring for now little but fascinating elements of your teachings Master. When it works it truly feels like magic, like a black belt level details on grappling that BJJ instructors don’t talk about. ”

“I am a 63-year martial artist with 50+ years of experience in a variety of arts. About he last 35 has been focused on Wing Chun. So, touching hands and contact reflexes are really a part of my wheelhouse. This training is the icing on the cake for me. What I understand about typical Tai Chi training is that the usual way to do this is to learn the form, learn various push hands, learn applications, learn weapons (if it is actually taught) and then after many years of practice you (if you are lucky) you get to have a big "uh huh" (enlightenment) experience and can really do the internal part of the art. And, through all of that you have a teacher who has a huge investment in milking the process for all its worth. This is not my experience of Sifu Lin. Instead, he is teaching the "secret sauce" that makes this all work right from the beginning of your training. Which in turn speeds up your learning curve exponentially. (No milking and less frustration with the process) How he is able to do this is through very quick paradigm shifts. Fascia mastery is the content, and each subsequent course creates a contextual shift and builds on that by expanding your awareness through the various energetic distinctions (energies: Song, Qi, Neijin and Yi respectively). As far as I'm concerned this is the way to learn Tai Chi. Think about it... Now I have mastery that I can put into my practice and grow my practice through mastery rather than have an empty practice over 10-20 years that probably won't yield any result beyond the superficial.”

“It is a great boon to humanity when that rare Teacher arrives who is able to communicate complex topics and distinctions in a clear, simple and organized way that leads to RESULTS. This is so evident in several ways: First, in the comments section of your videos, especially from advanced students who have been on the path for a long time and yet finally understand how to incorporate and utilize internal power, which had previously just been a concept or abstraction for them. Second, by the level of detail in your training videos, where you are integrating and synthesizing so many different principles, many of which I had never come across despite being in the Qigong and energy healing arena for a long time now. They have been well-kept secrets indeed....until now ! Lastly, by your personal example you embody the principles of psycho-spiritual integration that develops as a result of deep internal practices, things which include kindness, generosity, and a keen intellect. Thank you Shifu Lin.”
