  • Great podcast!

    I like how you let your guests speak and the recording is very clear. Too many people don’t let the guests speak and their recordings are often not clear. Very interesting guests and I enjoy listening to them speak about their practices.

Ep 36: Tai chi fantasy vs reality with Alan Wycherley
Q: What is your YouTube channel all about?
My YouTube channel covers how traditional martial arts, especially Tai Chi, can be applied in reality-based self-defense scenarios.
Ep 35: Baguazhang misconceptions with Edward Hines
Q: Do you need to do Xing Yi or some other art before you learn Bagua?
My answer to that is no. It doesn't matter if you have done Xing Yi or some other art before you learn, but it also depends on the completeness of the syllabus or the understanding of the system you're going into.
