Master Frank Allen, my long time mentor and Master of Cheng Style Ba Gua Zhang. A practice to elicit an embodied expression of the oldest (Taoist) work of divination the I-Ching book of change. Living life as part of change itself. ( no easy task for anyone, but of course a potentiality we all possess) Accepting change as natural and manifesting changes via intentional movement practices ( palm changes) is the modus operandi of the living art of Ba Gua Zhang. We as human beings weaving a path of continuous change between heaven and earth. To live comfortably with change a Ba Gua Zhang practitioner draws upon the continuities that arises from its signature circle walking practice. This builds a foundation of footwork practice that was a method to flow in a combat situation. Ba Gua Zhang was an elite fighting style ( tried and tested) with a Taoist influenced subsctructure of meditative and intentional work necessary for high level internally significant body control and application. #internalmartialartslondon #baguazhang #bagua #chrisraychappell #chrischappell #realtaoism #qigonghealing #chi #qi #tao #qigongteachertraining #taoistyoga #taoism #dao #daoism #alternativehealth #medicalexercise #taoistinternalarts #hunyuan # alternativehealth #taichimaster #wellness #hunyuanqigong #primordialqigong #qigong #chikung #innercultivation #energyarts #taoistenergyarts #mindfulmovement #stressreduction #meditation #relaxation #dzogchen (at Bouisse) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1bPULclv7-/?igshid=1nnu6ub4naiuk

Next Introduction to Hun Yuan primordial Qi Gong. I teach Qi Gong in style that negates confusions of the nature of energy. I do this reference and precise bio mechanical realities that support a deeper enquiry into the nature of mind in direct relationship to the body and its energy. #taoistinternalarts #internalmartialartslondon #baguazhang #bagua #chrisraychappell #chrischappell #realtaoism #qigonghealing #chi #qi #tao #qigongteachertraining #taoistyoga #taoism #dao #daoism #alternativehealth #medicalexercise #taoistinternalarts #hunyuan # alternativehealth #taichimaster #wellness #hunyuanqigong #primordialqigong #qigong #chikung #innercultivation #energyarts #taoistenergyarts #mindfulmovement #stressreduction #meditation #relaxation (at Chris Ray's Real Taoism) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzTlmUKlO8z/?igshid=belxwyjk4af2

Hun Yuan Primordial qi gong Three dan tien open and close Qi Gong is an exercise system that functions as a method to open all the energy pathways of the body, from the surface channels to the deeper core channels. #taoistinternalarts #internalmartialartslondon #baguazhang #bagua #chrisraychappell #chrischappell #realtaoism #qigonghealing #chi #qi #tao #qigongteachertraining #taoistyoga #taoism #dao #daoism #alternativehealth #medicalexercise #taoistinternalarts #hunyuan # alternativehealth #taichimaster #wellness #authenticarts (at Chris Ray's Real Taoism) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByR9IJoFWEu/?igshid=1qjk62glhorzq

Hun Yuan Primordial Qi Gong. Gathering Qi to the 3 dan tiens ( energy gathering) the second movement of the original set. This is foundation set taught at the studio. Over a 10 year period I explored this set with my teacher in UK and China. One needs to have hands on access to a qualified teacher who has the knowledge to correct body structure. The internal mechanics are not easily percieved by the eye but can he felt. ( rib and diaphragm flexibility) The limbs must not throw off the core alignments but should eventually stretch and release the spine as a totality. #taoistinternalarts #internalmartialartslondon #baguazhang #bagua #chrisraychappell #chrischappell #realtaoism #qigonghealing #chi #qi #tao #qigongteachertraining #taoistyoga #taoism #dao #daoism #alternativehealth #medicalexercise #taoistinternalarts #hunyuan # alternativehealth #taichimaster #wellness #authenticarts (at Chris Ray's Real Taoism) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByFItXnlYMo/?igshid=yhejccbeh3vg

Taking a brief moment to realign myself to this city. A moment of inner practice when the opportunity arises. Moments of rest. Taking my inner gymnasium and meditation room with me.

I have been practicing standing (internal mind body practice) since being introduced to standing by Master Chu King Hung. 3rd disciple of the late Yang Sau Chung of Yang Family Tai Chi Chuan fame since 1985. It's not the legnth of time that matters but one's internal alignments and psychological approach that does. An enthusiasm for self practice are the key to overall health and success with no reliance of an outside agent. #taoistinternalarts #internalmartialartslondon #baguazhang #bagua #chrisraychappell #chrischappell #realtaoism #qigonghealing #chi #qi #tao #qigongteachertraining #taoistyoga #taoism #dao #daoism #alternativehealth #medicalexercise #taoistinternalarts #hunyuan # alternativehealth #taichimaster #wellness #hunyuanqigong #primordialqigong #qigong #chikung #innercultivation #energyarts #taoistenergyarts #mindfulmovement #stressreduction #meditation #relaxation #dzogchen https://www.instagram.com/p/B1hX01UF79e/?igshid=1wb2nxzs8ox4z
