Don't Miss This Summer's: Internal Arts Weekend Extravaganza

When: July 24-26, 2009

Dear Internal Arts Enthusiast,

I had originally planned to offer a weeklong Liu He Ba Fa retreat this summer. Judging from the feedback I have received, the economy is influencing people’s spending decisions even in matters of Qi. With this in mind I’ve decided to revamp plans for our annual summer training event by offering a series of separate but interlocking internal arts seminars in a more condensed weekend format. We’ll be packing a great deal of training and information into a convenient weekend format, an internal arts extravaganza if you will, all for a phenomenal price. Please see these downloads for more details:

Your host and teacher for retreats...

Sifu John Loupos, M.S. Psych, C.S.E., is the owner/ founder of Jade Forest Kung Fu/ Tai Chi/ Internal Arts. John has been teaching martial arts since 1968 and practicing Tai Chi since 1975. His internal arts experience covers a wide spectrum. He is also trained in Classical Homeopathy and Hanna Somatics. He is the author of “Inside Tai Chi...”, “Exploring Tai Chi...” and “Tai Chi Connections...”, and “Advancing Your Tai Chi” (DVD). His next book, on Hanna Somatics, “The Myth of Aging - Your Guide to Neuromuscular Intelligence...” is in pre-pub. John’s articles have appeared in Taijiquan Journal, Inside Kung Fu magazine, and the Journal of Asian Martial Arts. John was also a featured presenter at the 2005/ 06 Zhang San Feng Festivals and other venues.

John is guided in his role as a Tai Chi teacher by his beliefs that:

  1. Tai Chi Chuan can be more than something we do, rather it can become an indelible part of who we are,...
  2. the essential principles of Tai Chi are universal, regardless of the style,...
  3. Tai Chi is a mind/body discipline that can help us optimize our human potential as ‘self-masters’,... and
  4. Tai Chi should be as much fun as it is work.
