Arizona Workshop - Autumn 2010
Please see the comments section below for more specific information or reviews about this workshop.
I Liq Chuan (literally translated as Mental-Physical Martial Art) is an internal art that has become known for its effectiveness as a martial art. The practice of I Liq Chuan develops the ability to react spontaneously to attacks, not relying upon pre-arranged
responses, through its specialized partner practices of Spinning Hands & Sticky Hands.
This weekend Master Sam Chin will guide us in learning how to develop specific qualities the internal arts are known for, through solo exercises and partner practice.
By practicing a series of movement drills combined with attention, we will learn to unify ourselves and in turn, with a partner. It is through the physical sensitivity and awareness of the reactions of both our partners and our own bodies that we will begin to feel and
act in the moment, rather than thinking and anticipating.
Here is what you will learn this weekend: 
- Taiji & Chan (Zen) approaches to learning.
- Understand, both mentally & physically, five qualities essential to
the internal arts:
•Absorb & Project
•Open & Close
•Condense & Expand
•Concave & Convex
•3-D Action - To express the above qualities with a partner through
Spinning Hands & Sticky Hands. - Strategies of action in dealing with an opponent.
- Engaging the point of contact. What? How?

Although it is about a 10-15 minute ride to the Saturday and Sunday event, We have stayed there before and the hotel is quiet, comfortable, and provides a decent breakfast, eliminating the need to eat another meal out. We usually have 3 people to a room. The hotel provides roll aways if necessary.
