Introduction "There are so many books, classes, and styles of tai chi today. There is talk of internal energy in many of them. Yet, the definition could be more precise, and the route to achieving it is unexplained. Join me in uncovering the crucial missing pieces to truly understanding Tai Chi, i.e., the internal energy that powers Tai Chi movements and the learning program to develop such energy. How various components in the Tai Chi teaching program, such as Large Frame and Compact Frame Form, Square and Round Form, silk reeling exercises, etc., fit into the learning program are discussed in detail. It will show that Tai Chi's abilityto mobilize the body's energy and deliver it efficiently s one of the prime reasons distinguishing it as a martial art. It is the cultivation of this internal energy that produces the most significant health benefits of Tai Chi."
