    It was not hard to set up a Skype session at all. Don't be shy. The great thing about our current state of "spiritual counterculture" is that advanced practitioners and teachers are more accessible than ever, if you introduce yourself. I just contacted the teacher via email and expressed interest in some one-on-one time to help me prepare for the seminar. I sent some PayPal and had the whole thing set up in a few days.

     

    There's a link to all the official apprentices and facilitators somewhere on Max's website - http://www.primordialalchemist.com

     

    Sifu Jenny Lamb who teaches practices similar to Max's Kunlun also does "online consultation" - http://www.easterninternalarts.org/

    Thanks for reading, I hope you'll follow along!

     

    Brief version - I have some QiGong friends locally who have been practicing Kunlun for several years, and they are always talking about Max, his teachings, his crazy stories, etc. But they are very respectful and would not share any actual techniques.

     

    I was interested, so I contacted one of Max's apprentices online, and learned the KL and RP techniques from him via Skype in a one-on-one mini seminar, which took about 2.5 hours. I'm attending a real life seminar with the same teacher, coming up in May.

     

     

     

    Hello multiarms,

     

    i wanted to know how hard it was for you to set up the one-on-one seminar and if you thought it was quite worth it to go to the retreat? (clearly it was due to the goal of continuing your kunlun practice). Was it hard to find an apprentices?

    Hello everyone,

     

    I am a college student who was introduced to eastern philosophy when i was about 17. I am 22 now and have made my way through chan halls and ashtanga studios with great enjoyment and have learned a lot from my practice of zen and ashtanga yoga. I was turned on to Tai Chi Chuan and Qigong by a friend of mine and now i am hooked. I hope that i can learn something from you bums and maybe contribute some of the things that i find in my own practice.
