Letter To UCB Program Students

Thank you all for your dedicated practice. As this Year of The Dragon commences let us all feel deep and abiding gratitude for the great treasure that is our lives and in our curriculum that helps to enrich our everyday experiences. I wish each of you the best of health and prosperity in the coming year. Train well and regularly.

New Live Class Broadcasts!

For UCB Program students who have completed the 8 week course, I am making live classes availble over the web. If you are an active student paying tuition, there is no additional charge. For those who are not active students, please setup an automatic payment for distance learning using the form on the 'classes' page.

Chi factory students are eligible once they have completed Stage 2 training and have been designated as 'Ongoing' students. Create an account on UCB Program using a different email address than the one used on Chi Factory.

Now UCB students can train anytime, anywhere.

Weekly live online instruction and self paced curriculum.

This year the 4 Day Intensive was great! Ashe and I met new students and reconnected with old. Training was great and we got to visit the Monestery where sifu first shared his familiy art.

On Chinese New Year I completed the Discipleship ceremony and am now a formally adopted member of the I Liq Chuan Family.
