Shameless promotion (www.manchester-bagua.org)

Just had someone ask me about my martial arts training.

We had a nice chat about internal martial arts, Tai Chi, Xing Yi and Baguazhang.

But I found it rather hard to stop myself from saying something like:

"Hey, why don't you come to our class. It's great! You'll love it. Come on... Come to our class this Friday!"

Thankfully, I just about managed to preserve my dignity and prevent myself from blurting it all out.

That said, he is still sitting across from me. Got about an hour to last til we finish work.

Maybe this is what televangelists feel like? Gotta spread the Bagua-love whereever I go!

Speaking of which! - www.manchester-bagua.org

Jet Li sets up business to promote Tai Chi


KUNG Fu movie start Jet Li has teamed up with a Chinese internet entrepeneur to promote Tai Chi.

Li, star of "Hero" and "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor", joined forces with Jack Ma, founder of Alibaba, the world's biggest retailer.

Ma recently stepped down as the CEO of the company, saying he wanted to concentrate his energies in education and the environment.

Like Li, Ma is a long time follower of Tai Chi and has used its teachings in his business strategies and his former company.

The duo have opened a school in Hangzhou, Zheijiang Province, eastern China.

A statement from the company said the school would teach Tai Chi and other martial arts under the tutalege of a well-known master.

In keeping with Ma's environmental beliefs, the school is part of a larger building which also houses commercial services. The park is in wetlands.
