Scholar Boxer: Chang Naizhou's Theory of Internal Martial Arts

Scholar Boxer: Chang Naizhou's Theory of Internal Martial Arts and the Evolution of Taijiquan

Master ChÃ¡ng, known as the â€œscholar-boxer,â€ lived and practiced in HÃ©nÃ¡n province, at the center of Chinese culture and martial arts near the ShÃ olÃn Temple and legendary LuÃ²yÃ¡ng. His extensive writings reflect many of the ideas, even the phraseology, now familiar from classic Tai Chi Chuan texts. Chinese-language authority Marnix Wells traveled to ChÃ¡ngâ€™s village, where the masterâ€™s family carries on his tradition of ChÃ¡ng boxing. This resulting study of Changâ€™s life and teachings reveals the true origins of todayâ€™s internal martial arts.
