Welcome to Jade Dragon

At JDMAA we teach the following:

• Our primary practice is Shaolin Five Ancestor Fist (AKA-Wuzu Quan or Ngo Cho Kun). Five Ancestor Fist is a Shaolin Southern Style practice that was developed in the Fujian Province (Debatably at the Shaolin Fujian Temple?). The style combines the primary characteristics of White Crane, Lohan Fist, Taizu Quan, Monkey Fist and the internal arts of Bodhidharma. At JDMAA we place a heavy emphasis on the forms, applications and training methods of (1)White Crane and (2)Shaolin Lohan Fist, but still have ample practice in the forms and application of (3)Taizu Quan and the quickness and agility of the (4)Monkey Style. We begin teaching the (5)internal practice at beginner level 2.
• We teach four primary weapons- Staff, Broadsword, Spear and straight sword. We begin weapons training at beginner level 3 because we believe training with weapons enhances all martial skills. (We also teach several other weapons such as the 9 section Chain Whip, Chinese Sai, Daggers and others. However, those will be taught outside of the core curriculum for those that wish to learn them.)
• We teach the COMPLETE internal martial arts of Yang Style Tai Chi Chuan, Baguazhang and Xing Ie Chuan. We also teach internal practices of Qi Gong, Nei Gong and Daoist Internal Alchemy Practice . Our internal practice is primarily Daoist (specifically in the Northern Longmen tradition) and focuses on systematically developing the necessary qualities to have success in any of the Internal Arts. ALL of our internal work has its foundation in the Yi Jin Jing Classic. (To learn more about the Ji Jin Jing Classic please watch our YouTube Video on the subject)

We offer in person learning in East Tennessee, but we also have extensive teaching for those who wish to learn online. If you wish to learn more please hit the button below.

Qi Gong, Nei Gong and Daoist Internal Practice

Qigong and Nei Gong are ancient Chinese practices that combine many elements, all of which are based on the belief that our bodies are made up of energy. By manipulating and transforming this energy, you can improve your health and wellness to a very high level with relatively simple techniques.

Qigong has existed for many centuries. It's efficacy is time proven. Qigong is based on the belief that the body is full of energy, all of which flows through a series of interconnecting pathways. If there is a balance of energies within the body, and if they are allowed to flow freely through these pathways, then you should be happy and healthy.

Problems occur when there is an imbalance or a blockage. Through practice you will create balance and eliminate these blockages. Qigong is not just about one thing. It is a system of practices, all based around a few core beliefs. The goal of all Qigong is to live a happier and healthier life, which is why most of the practitioners focus on healing and on keeping the energy within your body balanced and free-flowing. 

These Qi Gong and Nei Gong techniques and practices will be taught online in educational pods that build progressively one after the other and are of course supported by me through email and/or our online community "the SynerG Cafe". You can also learn many Qi Gong Techniques in our flagship course The SynerG Academy.
