This book is based upon the Tai Chi Beginner - Yang Style of Shaolin Chi Mantis book, published in 1992 by Shaolin Communications and written by Richard Del Connor, "Sifu O'Connor," This condensed version of the original student manual excludes the 444 photos that teach the basic kicks, punches, and SCM Yoga Routine™. These remaining text pages are required of all our Tai Chi students to be read in class. Based upon two decades of reading in class and utilizing this Tai Chi Beginner book lesson plan, Buddha Zhen has created this new version for the convenience of his students to use and read in class for small screened digital book formats.
Richard Del Connor, founded Buddha Kung Fu in 2008, and the nonprofit charity education organization, Tai Chi Youth, in 1996. The Shaolin Chi Mantis school is the original Kung Fu school created in 1992, after he was hired to teach in a maximum security Utah prison, from which all other martial arts programs and styles are derived from. This is an official Shaolin Chi Mantis student manual with weekly lessons that pertain to each week's Tai Chi Chuan (Taijiquan) lessons.
This book is the "Class Reading Manual" of the Shaolin Chi Mantis Traditional Buddhist Gongfu and Taijiquan schools, Buddha Kung Fu programs, and Tai Chi Youth nonprofit schools. Since 1992 Shaolin Chi Mantis has taught the Yang Style Tai Chi Short Form in 16 lessons over 16 weeks along with historical and inspirational essays that correspond to the Daoist intentions of each section of this unique martial arts dance of self-defense and self-development.
