CQC Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Hey guys, I've been looking into getting some sort of organized internal art, something with mediation. Is there any arts that any of you have personally tried and gotten good personal results?Thanks! "Beware the fury of a patient man."- John Dryden
scottnshelly Posted November 12, 2005 Posted November 12, 2005 Find out what is available in your area, then assess each one to determine which is right for your goals. After you have narrowed it down to the styles/schools that are available in your area, the members of this forum may be able to give you some additional insight or help you make a final decision. Good luck.
shogeri Posted November 12, 2005 Posted November 12, 2005 Taijiquan either Yang or Chen. Ask questions as to the martial art aspects. Some try to teach 'pushes' as strikes. This is wrong. Also, some might try to sell off push hands as pushing combat. This is also wrong.Taijiquan is a striking art. With emphasis on maintaining the center, while taking the center of your opponent.Usually, external styles, depending on the instructor, are now implementing qigong into their training methods, along with various types of sensitivity training.Good luck in your search. Scrutinize, and ask questions.

Traditional-Fist Posted December 10, 2005 Posted December 10, 2005 Any authentic Kung Fu school that teaches the major Shaolin and/or Wudang arts will also teach meditation. Use your time on an art that is worthwhile and not on a dozen irrelevant "ways".
