Grounding - Nei gong - Chi Kung

[Night-Dragon]

how are these 3 aspect of internal arts linked togheter?

I read an article about chi kung in wing chun gong fu.

Particullary was talking about the concept of grounding. the static grounding and the dinamic grounding.

How can we develop the grounding skills?

Is zhan zhuang exercise related to grounding?

thanks

Zhan Zhuan training will help you in grounding. the longer you hold the posture the deeper into the ground your root will go.

Chi Kung excersizes can be used by Wing Chun and Gong Fu practicioners to help them attain a deeper power in their techniques. They will also help improve circulation and Chi flow in the body.

What should I pratice most to develop this skill?

just Zhan Zhuang embracing tree posture is enough?

thank you
