Lesson 3 - How to feel the Qi
Do I have to be an expert to perceive my Qi?
You do not have to be a Qi Gong practitioner to perceive your Qi, everyone can do it.
In the first lesson of this chapter, we have tried to describe Qi with the words but this it is not the best way to understand what we are talking about. The best way to explain what is Qi is to allow you to perceive its manifestation.
A few examples of Qi manifestation
Everyone has his Qi, therefore, we all perceive its action...

Punches: the difference between self-defense and sport competitions
Let's start with a few premises in relation to Sports competitions and self-defense.
Sports competitions:
In most of the full-contact combat sports where striking is allowed (boxing, MMA, etc.), protective gloves are worn (read How to do sparring)
The gloves are provided with a padding that serves not only to limit the incisiveness of the blows but also (and above all) to protect the integrity of the hand bones (read The...

What is Master Kongling's background?
A note by Master Kongling - A small premise: as I said many times, I do not like to talk about myself or my experiences (I'm light years away from the type of martial artist I would like to be), if I do it, it is because it can be useful to those who want to understand the limits and the potential of our style.
If you want to know something about my story and martial path, you can read these articles:

How to train effectively
Let's start from one fact: the best way to train seriously is not to follow the classic gym courses.
In every kind of martial or sports activity, to reach as fast as possible a good level we should:
Find a good instructor that directly follows us - Find something like a personal coach (this is the most effective choice but it is very expensive)
Train by ourselves - Study from A to Z everything we need to know (this solution is slow, long and not so effective but...

What is a "throw" in martial arts terms?
The "throws" area grappling techniques that, more or less violently, allow a fighter to hurl on the ground his opponent. They are widely used in a lot of martial arts (Kung Fu, Judo, Jiu-Jitsu, Jeet Kune Do, Ninjutsu, MMA, etc.) and there are various kinds:
Related to a particular part of the body (hips, shoulders, legs, etc.)
With a sacrifice, with pick-ups (etc.)
A good throw is not a matter of strength but instead of a good physics calculation.

Training time organization
As we said a lot of times (read Tips on how to stretch our training times) daily training is fundamental and it is must be balanced with all the other activities of our life:
Social relationship (friends, family, etc.)
Duties (work, study, etc.)
Free time (hobby, relax, etc.)
Body functions (sleeping, eating, etc.)
...
Our daily training can (must) not sacrifice any of them: to do this, we simply have to organize.

Why learn to use real martial weapons?
If 6 Dragons Kung Fu strictly refuses violence (read for example The 6DKF's diagram about the use of violence), why a practitioner should learn to use real martial weapons?
The reply is to reach the excellence of the practice.
In any kind of martial practice (for an expert), the goal is to gain the most effective possible skills; if, for example, a sword is not sharpened:
It does not allow cutting exercises
It is less aerodynamic and then slower
