A Foundational training program for all Wudang Worldwide curriculums. This includes:
Daoist Sword Arts • Life Nourishing Tai Chi • Wudang Wuxue • Quiet Sitting

Presented here in over 2 hours of material, Wudang Daoist Michael Xia Chongyi offers the foundational tools for warming up and cooling down each practice session. No matter your sport or wellness practice, the body needs to be warmed up before training. Ideally, this means having the muscles and joints ready to use, without the tension that comes with day-to-day function. By bringing heat into the body while working the muscles, the joints will be made ready for exertion with a reduced chance of injury.
Additionally, when a workout session is complete, massaging the muscles and working out stress and tension will help lead to a more comfortable cooldown, with a quicker recovery time.
For those that focus on qigong and personal wellness, the third routine included is a combined variation of the warmup and cooldown methods. This sequence can be performed between 5-12 minutes, and is ideal for when you wake up in the morning, or before going to bed at night.
