How was your UVA thing last fall? Sorry I kind of dropped off the map. I was in a bad car accident in the fall and have been recovering since then.]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/57851246 http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41CgsoFdmdL._SL75_.jpg 1082144 Kieffala http://photo.goodreads.com/users/1208224523p2/1082144.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1082144-kieffala Sat, 30 May 2009 09:06:36 -0700
This is the first book under review for Singing Dragon. I am enjoying it for the most part. So far I would definitely recommend it for advanced students and teachers. It might be a bit over the heads/vague for those new to Chi Kung or those planning to get into it.

I have already implemented some of the suggestions for warm-ups and Chi Kung (which I usually do at the end of a class, since my classes are at night). My students responded positively to the suggestions.

I am really excited to be reviewing books for the publisher. It's great to have things to write for my blog, and it helps keep me up-to-date on what's new it Tai Chi and Chi Kung. ]]>
