This is to be the first time Han Shi Yi Quan is to visit the United States. His knowledge and experience has never been spread this far east of his native China. Yi Quan instruction will be open to the public on Saturday, Nov. 7, 2009 from 12:45 p.m. to 3:45 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 8, 2009 with two classes, one from 8 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and another from 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. The workshop will be held at the University of Hawaii-Hilo Old Gym (off of Kapiolani Street.) All skill levels are welcome.
Anyone who is curious can learn from the most advanced martial artist.
This four-hour, three-day workshop will cover the basics on the internal art of Yi Quan and how to understand its connection with void, nature, as well as advanced concepts of internal martial arts, with a unique method of testing and understanding Han shi Yi Quan at its core has, the universal principle for fist, life, health, art, and spirituality.
Yi Quan at its core is a key that can unlock many internal martial arts, integrating the ancient health dance of china and the embodiment of Chinese philosophy and thought. At the core of Yi Quan is its principle, which makes Yi Quan quite unique. This core is the heart of real health, understanding and combat ability.
Many martial arts has Yi Quan principle at its core, but with no way of testing or understanding, and many martial artists from around the world have sought out Master Han in his native China to understand what is real.
To put it another way, all of us share a common blueprint that is discernable and quantifiable. It is this core principle that makes Yi Quan instruction singular. This principle is the same for the body's health state, or the same for artistic expression, or any meaningful advances in an individual's personal wisdom. Yi Quan has been taught as the ultimate Chi Kung, The ultimate Fist, and the ultimate understanding of artistic expression.
Following the workshop with Master Han, ongoing classes are to be taught in Hilo and Pahoa by two Hilo natives who were trained in China by Master Han.
