The cane has been used as a self-defense weapon for centuries. But it is more than just a weapon or a walking aid--it is a useful tool to practice the ancient Chinese art of tai chi and gain all the benefits of relaxation, health, and wellness for students of any age or fitness level. For the very first time, Master Jesse Tsao brings his fifty years of tai chi practice and training, combined with his PhD in Traditional Chinese Martial Arts Education, to this comprehensive guide to mastering the tai chi cane with routines he has created. Rooted in the Taoist Eight Immortals legends, this book takes you through the steps of tai chi cane stretch and self-massage to increase flexibility, loosen tight muscles, and prepare the body for daily activities as well as stimulating energy points to open the body's blockages and flush out stagnation and toxins to promote self-healing. Routine I blends the softer flow and circular movements of the popular Yang-style tai chi for stress management and personal fitness. And for students looking for training in cane self-defense, Routine II is based on the fast and vigorous practice of traditional Chen-style Cannon Fist that mixes robust leaps with explosive strikes--ideal for diehard martial artists.

Tai Chi Bang: Eight-Immortal Flute is an energy practice based on characteristic Tai Chi postures combined with traditional Chinese self-healing meditation and self-defense kung fu. Tai Chi Bang gives an object to focus on between the palms, bonding the two hands moving together, making it easy and fun for beginners to feel the qi (energy), and gain the benefits of Tai Chi practice. Students who find it difficult to quiet their minds find this practice especially effective in gathering attention. Holding the Bang with both palms help them concentrate and be in the moment. The movements of the Bang imitate the movement of the qi inside the body. It relieves stress, gathers in fresh energy, rejuvenates the body and spirit, brings inner calm, and promotes qi and blood circulation.

This book is a manual for individual human to maintain and improve health and to develop self-defense techniques. In Chapter One, the writer presents to the readers and Tai Chi doers the step-by-step instructions to complete the whole sequence of 100 postures in 100 days. TIME is the main factor in doing Tai Chi. Tai Chi is an exercise for people to make, collect, and conserve energy, Ch'i, the vital energy of life. Tai Chi is an individual who needs Tai Chi, the exercise, to refill the energy to fulfill daily activities. In Chapter Two, Energy, the readers will understand Ch'i . The Mind and Body are examined in Chapter Three. The theory in psychology is applied to the Tai Chi theory explaining that the mind leads the body (movement) in order to make, to collect and conserve energy. The interrelations of Mind, Body and Energy are fully illustrated. In Chapter Four, The Experience, the writer states his experience in doing Tai Chi. The yard stick is set for the doer to measure his/her level without examination, which is unnecessary in the process of Tai Chi. Health is the primary goal in doing Tai Chi. Without health one can hardly develop self-defense techniques. Health is a very individual matter and should be taken care of by the individual him/herself. Medical Care is sickness care for the public, while Tai Chi is Health Care for the individual. In Chapter Six some fine points on Health are found. In Chapters Five and Seven the readers will find the way to develop the powerful self-defense techniques. New theory is introduced and the Tai Chi doers will see why Tai Chi is so powerful. In Chapter Eight the writer tells the history of Tai Chi in a new and interesting way.
