True Funny Jackie Chan Story

[taiji fajin]

I don't know how many of you know him, but there is a Chen style Taijiquan Grandmaster who is famous named Feng Zhiqiang. If you don't know him, look him up, he is very impressive. In any case, one day a person was talking to Feng, describing some of Jackie Chan's training. They told Feng of this very impressive guy (Chan) who when he was younger would train in very strict ways, having to do lots of jumping, tumbling, etc, and how his instructors would strike him with a staff whenever he was the slightest bit off. The person then asked Feng if he ever had to go through such painful experiences to reach his level of skill. Feng simply said, "oh, no no, I just stand there" and stood in the santi meditation posture.
