UNDEFEATABLE

  I would like to give my sincerest thanks to the many great teachers that I have studied withover the past 10 years that have made my voyage into the art of internal boxing so exhilarating. They are the ones that ultimately made this book possible. After many years of hard work and perseverance this book has finally come into full fruition. The concepts and lessons in this book have been carefully constructed so that the readers may follow an easy line of reading, while at the same time benefiting from the advanced methodologies.  One of the finest books on Chinese Martial Arts that I read many years ago was none other than, Chinese Boxing, by Robert. W. Smith. Robert’s long term CIA assignment was to evaluate the many fighting styles in the orient and extract the best tactical hand fighting techniques to bring them back to the CIA Headquarters in Langley, Virginia. Initially an advocate in the Hard Way of fighting, Robert practiced western boxing, judo, and karate in his early years. After studying in Taiwan and vast regions in China he became to realize that the highest standard of fighting dwelled with in the Internal House  of Chinese Boxing. Chen Manching completely changed his approach to martial arts and combat tactics beyond what he could ever imagine.  Soon the Yang style of Taiji would explode on the scene in New York thanks to the gentle, kind hearted Cheng. Many stories have circulated concerning the long journey of master hood that Cheng had to go through to reach the highest aptitude of Taiji Chuan.  In his early years he spent many hours studying with the legendary Yang Chengfu, one of the truest masters of the art form through out the history of Taiji Chuan. Once Cheng was with Chengfu and he witnessed a mini cab hit him and over turn with its carriage and occupants, while Chengfu walked away virtually unscathed and almost unaware of the whole incident as it occurred. This is one example of the deep studded grounded ness   of the master and his ability to receive and release energy at an unparalleled level.  This book is an introspective look at the philosophy and methodologies of Taiji Chuan. Many books have been circulating the current publishing market concerning the internal arts such as: Scholar Boxer, remakes of Chen Manching’s short sets, transliterations of form sets, Bruce Kumar’s , Relaxing Into Your Being, and various other Daoist based interpretations of how to gain self mastery in the Taiji domain.  In addition to numerous books on Neiji Quan, calisthenics, set forms, and meditation, there are a plethora of other hoopla bogus mumbo jumbo mystery school books that have made their way to the literary forefronts. Many years ago I must have emptied every book stale in every major book store looking for a truly learnable treatise that could give me sound advancement into the internal fighting arts and push hand systems. After working on my push hands and hitting heavy bags for many years I started to find a new approach to the concept of staying deeply rooted.  Finding relaxed/emptiness or wuji  was quintessential in my development and is the spirit of Taiji and the gate way to the mastery of fajing  power. Working as a security guard for many years I spend every free second perfecting post forms and experimenting with other on duty guards. In 2006 I had a big break through in the discovery of a new system I developed called, THE CENTRAL UNIFIED WEIGHT THEORY or  C.U.W.T .   These new postulations were assessed thoroughly and what my colleagues and I deduced during the scientific method process began to unravel the intricacies of body mechanics, optimal stance, mind projection, breathing, push hands, and prepatory mind drills. This book is a break through instruction manual on learning to become un- push able on the push- hands circuits and undefeatable in any fight circle. One thing I learned teaching Tai chi over the years is that a teacher can not simply tell a student to relax and expect to see immediate integral results. Another common misnomer is telling the student to concentrate on his dan tien region for issuing power. A person must learn to relax from the shoulders to the ankles, and the mind/spirit   must be placed in the foot, optimizing gravity, the spirit/mind   must literally   sink/become humble  to reach the level of true fajing projection. The dan tien is flexed and used in Kundalini exercises to help circulate energy through the body before actual catch and release push-hands practice. We have developed workable methods of techniques and mental preparations that will give any push hands, or pugilist player an overwhelming edge over top competition. Robert W. Smith asked Cheng Manching why none of his students were able to reach his level of mastery? Chengs answer, “no faith.” The mind may allow the body to relax for short periods of time, but the faith is lost during prospect of opponent aggression and brut vigor. This mastery of movement in repose  for the first time in the main stream has become approachable, and perfect able. Once the correct breath control is coupled with the CENTRAL UNIFIED WEIGHT THEORY, the true charisma of Tai chi chuan begins to shine through the practitioner. Along with workable physical and mental drills, graphs, tactical charts, abundant pictures, full Cheng, Yang, Wudang, Sun, and Wu Tai chi Sets have been included step by step as an added bonus. This book focuses on the full development and control of fajing power, push hands techniques and drills, Xing Yi striking, Bagua walking, and body positioning for shoot style grapplers and wrestlers. If you are looking for an internal martial arts book that is loaded with illustrations, drills, understandable fighting dynamics, fajing development, push- hands training, and ground breaking methodologies, then this book is for you.  Included in this book: Shaolin, Xing Yi, Bagua Zhang, Tai chi, push-hands mental development, fajing training, calisthenics, fighting drills, and an explicit insight into the ground breaking Central Unified Weight Theory;  that puts to rest some of the myths about correct stances, energy focus on the dan tien, single and double weighted issues, push-hands strategy, and fight mechanics. No matter what level of player you are, you will take something away from this magnum opus. I present to you at this time the internal treatise UNDEFEATABLE .
