Useful Pointers

Social, Traditional, Philosophy, and Culinary Integrity

Traditional Values and Lifestyle is inter-woven in this ideology and philosophy

Chinese Exercise Taichi was a means of relaxation not fighting, It was also a means of finding peace and mind with body and mind

Chinese foods are extremely varied being that the country has many provinces, towns, and villages that developed their very own local styles and use ingredients specific to that area,

Chinese foods are by that very nature quite healthy and offer good natural ingredients to the body’s needs.

Work and Play is a finite balance that needs daily managing, so exercise is the commitment to keep a ‘yin yang’




Summary (cover of history as I know )

Chinese history of almost 5000 years recorded, is one of the most important cultures of all time, the internal fighting north-south divide has been the only real cultural issue other than the cultural revolution or Maozi dong,

Yet we see china which has survived more external attacks defended by the British, Portuguese, Spanish, and Japanese to mention a few, yet the country. The state continues to survive, call it what you will china has an inherent survival mechanism, that over the centuries merged, enhanced, and contributed to the current development and rise of China to a superpower,

Looking at this broadly this Country though regarded as backward, has bike-riding, rice, and noodle-eating people of whom are predominantly 85% peasant farmers, with simple needs and aspirations, socially controlled by the governing party.

Regarded by the west as simple people, simple standards, Have empowered themselves with smart planning, financial adeptness, commercial viability with drive passion, and the need to win manner than any country I know,

The fundamental strength and adhesiveness are these People, simple, guided, directed you would say, but shown incredible resilience, capability, and capacity to learn and succeed. In some ways this is indicative of Chinese, This very mindset is applied in taichi and kung fu to win to be number one.

The Philosophy of ‘Congzi’ and others have put a certain gelling in the social fabric cake, leaving an unseen but reliance on others to make things work together. Philosophy, traditions, social expectancy, and the persistence to develop grow, and be more than they are is indicative of the Chinese mindset, they may grab whatever is going on, bend the rules to fit, take shortcuts even sacrifice themselves and others to a better end.




Martial arts, Kung fu, Taichi, and similar defensive fighting skills became fighting skills after the true mind and body ideal it was built and set out to achieve was developed and pursued. My mother recently advised me after seeing my blogs and following this taichi master youtube, she sees Allen as an excellent representative of his country, China, and took it further to enroll in lessons to learn the skill and art at the youthful age of 80, well done old girl!
