Recognizing the Neutral Half-line to establish offense and defense / full and empty. Direct Knowing through Linking and Reflection.
You will be instructed to clearly feel and access the Three Engagements, (Circle with Center, Center with Center, Center with Cross); with an emphasis on refining the use of Peng Energy – the Internal and External Force Field Spheres of Offense & Defense.
You will learn partner work with Condense & Expand to measure the strength of your opponent’s sphere.
Your training will progress to understand how these conditions interrelate, and recognize and manifest the feel of the furthest point using awareness of Six Directional Energy and Yin & Yang muscle balance.
The I Liq Chuan 5 Element Nei Gung will be covered with emphasis on partner work using the Qualities and Force Dynamics of the 5 Elements within the context of the 6 Physical Points, 3 Mental Factors and the ‘Suchness’ Feel.
In a safe environment you will learn to:
• Maintain the Sphere of Defense while finding the space to strike an opponent
• Generate power from your Feet, through your Body, to your Hands
• Maintaining Fullness at the Point to Recognize the limit
• Place attention on your five senses in order to develop listening power

About I-Liq Chuan:
I-Liq Chuan (roughly translated as “mind-body fist”) is an art of cultivating consciousness based on Tai Chi and Chan (Zen) principles of non-assertions, non-resistance, harmony of yin and yang, oneness, and the present moment. As a system of kung fu, I-Liq Chuan emphasizes the development of internal power through mental attitude and awareness. The training develops sticking and merging abilities, circular spiral energy, Chin Na (locking), Fa Jing (projecting force), Chi Kung, and most importantly, integration of the mind’s complete awareness in the present moment. I-Liq Chuan trains the ability to sense the opponent’s intention through awareness and to redirect the force and use it against the opponent or incorporate the use of Fa Jing.
About Grandmaster Sam F.S. Chin: Sifu Sam Chin is an impressive man, an excellent teacher and a kind person. He also possesses extraordinary skill in his family’s art of “I Liq Chuan”, translated as “Mind Strength Fist”, which is growing rapidly worldwide with Instructors and Practitioners in over 20 countries. I Liq Chuan is a synthesis of Tai Chi, Hsing-I, Ba Gua and Hakka arts and also a merging of Taoist and Buddhist teaching.
Grandmaster Sam F.S. Chin is the co-founder and head instructor of I-Liq Chuan trained martial arts since childhood by his father – the founder of I Liq Chuan, Chin Lik Keong.
During the 1980’s, Master Sam Chin won numerous competitions, as well as the state heavy weight kick-boxing championships of Selangor (Malaysia) in 1978.
He has been teaching for over 30 years and has conducted seminars and workshops internationally. .
Master Chin has been recognized by the USA Wushu Kung-Fu Federation as a Hall of Fame Outstanding Master.
In August 2009, Grandmaster Sam F.S. Chin was officially named the Gate Keeper/Lineage Holder of the art by his father.
