Master Qian's Site

Master Qian's site is finally up. We hope this will help us communicate with our fellow practitioners by providing information about Master Qian, his training methods, tips and scheduled workshops.
According to an article appeared in T'ai Chi Magazine entitled Cultivating Emptiness To Realize the Dao, "Qian Zhao Hong, a high level internal martial artist from Shanghai and noted fighter and push hands practitioner... Qian is said to be one of the top fighters in all of China. He has trained in Xingyi, Wudang Taiji, Chan (Spiral) Taiji and a number of other martial arts, strating when he was a child in a Shanghai neighborhood called Wushu Village because so many martial arts masters lived and taught there. Most martial arts focus on becoming stronger and stronger. His emphasis is on becoming empty to get freedom of response."
