    Greetings, everyone! Looks like a great forum. Have been training various Taoist arts (aikido, chi kiung, tai chi chuan, nei kung, kinesiology, accupressure...) since the 80's. Looking forward to learning, sharing, and exchanging.

     

    Currently teaching and exploring at Strand Aikido in warm, sunny Pawleys Island near Myrtle Beach, SC.
