Taken from Erle Montaigue's March 2006 workshop in London UK, This series catalogues all of those very important training and fighting methods that cannot be put into any particular category.
On this second volume, Erle covers the very important area of Sinking. Without correct sinking, we never really get to know what real internal arts are about. Sinking is the very foundation of all internal systems, but most people only ever try to get to this level at a conscious level. Balance, grounding, power, fighting ability and self healing are all enhanced when one has the ability to 'SINK'. Read an article on Sinking here.

Taken from Erle Montaigue's March 2006 workshop in London UK, This series catalogues all of those very important training and fighting methods that cannot be put into any particular category.
On this first volume, Erle covers and teaches, the most important area of Qi Awakening using firstly, two methods, one from Bagua and one for Taiji, in order to 'wake the Qi' ready for action. These are excellent methods for instance for teachers who are beginning a new (or current) class and wish to gain some cohesion between the students and a balancing of the total energy in that class. You will find that if the energy is a little low to begin with (cold), after these are given, the whole class will be 'up'.
Also included on this first volume is the way of 'bumping push hands' whereby the student learns how to sub-consciously think about multiple things at the same time and of course this is important for the fighting arts.

Erle Montaigue continues his excellent series on how to teach an internal martial/healing arts class. In the beginning, Erle was only concentrating upon teachers who already had experience in teaching. However, more and more beginners wanted to see what this class was all about and it has been found that they have discovered also, an excellent way to learn the internal from the ground up. In learning what the 'teacher' must know, they also learn a huge amount and gain a great insight into the whole area of learning the Internal Arts. On this volume, Erle takes you through some amazing Qigong exercises that are tailored to the beginning class in order to bring the whole class into a learning phase and to concentrate the energy of that class as a whole upon what is being taught. Some excellent fighting methods are also taught as part of this way of bringing the class together.

This way of performing the Tai Chi form is phenomenal in what it does for you health wise. This is real Qigong at its highest level. (See Article on Tai Chi Qigong). This is the Tai Chi that will give you longevity and great good health into older age helping to fix such things as Arthritis and other problems of the joints and sinews etc. You will notice that you have much better mobility and stretch with no 'after-pain' from doing low postures etc. Your mind will improve, with a balanced mind and body moving in co-ordination.
Personally, I have found this way of doing Tai Chi to be the most wonderful experience, giving peace of mind and great happiness with a totally positive outlook. So it is excellent for those with mind problems such as bi-polar etc.

In this video, Erle Montaigue talks about the 3 energy systems in the human body. He discusses and shows how to firstly activate them and join them together in order to gain exceptional power over very short distances. He also shows a very special Qigong method which activates and builds upon that power. The internal power is housed in all of the joints of the body, in particular the "Sub-Tailar Joint". When one knows how to join this internal power with our external power, great power is felt. You can then use this power in daily tasks or for instance in sports like shot-put, or for healing or fighting. This tape was shot at Erle's recent WTBA annual workshop.

I discovered that many of my students, although they had the physical movements correct, they just weren’t getting the internal development. So I took a look at what they were dong and developed a way of teaching how using what they already knew, form and push hands. Now, most them at least have a better understanding of how to gain it and how to use it. (The Internal Qi)

About 2000 types of Qigong broken up into three areas.

1. Self healing included in this DVD.
2. Martial Arts not in this DVD
3. Medical Qigong - A Qigong doctor helps enhance your own self healing energy. Self healing helps open up 12 main meridians of your body, chi flows through these meridians. When we get older the meridians get impeded and less chi flows. Self healing Qigong gives your chi a boost

Qigong is about 2-3 thousand years old, Dao Yin exercise of ancient times is the Qigong of modern times.
When learning Tai Chi we do not get the health benefits, because we are thinking about learning the moves. Qigong gives the benefits during the learning of the Tai Chi form.
Qigong causes energy to flow through meridians. Doing movements and breathing causes the Chi to flow from somewhere to somewhere.
Three Circle Standing Qigong See MTG1 You cant do anything wrong to yourself doing this Qigong correctly. This Qigong tries to heal you, clicking bones, lower back etc. It adds 3X of life to the rounds of chi flow you have left. Chi flows to all the meridians 3X in a 24 hour period as compared to 1 cycle of chi flow according to the circadian clock where every two hours different organs activate.  
Do 2X a day dusk and dawn, one time dusk is okay also. Minimum time is 15 min. total, 10 min. hands up and 5 min. hands tan tien level. If done for a longer time lets say a hour just split the time 2/3 hands up and 1/3 hands Tantien.

1. Tongue on hard palate, upper heavenly circulation (connect governing yang and conception yin meridians).
2. Knees bent in a straight line with big toe. The sacrum and below is the hips, everything above the sacrum is the waist. The hips and waist can turn together or moves where the waist turns independently of   the hips and the hips don’t move.
3. Back straight, neck straight with chin slightly in. Everything is done with a vertical back.
4. Shoulders rounded and relaxed (lift them then drop them to see if they are relaxed). Arms are like their hugging a big tree. For the normal Qigong Breath naturally (natural breath) inhale and exhale through the nose, inhale (belly puffs out) exhale (belly in), Do not force the breath hold for a couple of seconds then breath out. Do not breath into the chest that’s tension. Your mind is concentrating on the Tantien(from the upper to lower Tantien) thinking about nothing if thoughts enter let them pass and flow out. Things around you are in their natural surroundings which are not in your control, so think of things belonging where they are, such as birds in the sky. Do not rush the chi down to the lower Tantien. Breath in up the GV vessel to the third eye, breath out down the CV vessel to the lower Tantien, position the next in breath from the lower Tantien to CV1 and up the GV vessel back to the third eye, it’s a longer yang circulation(purifying the chi going up the back) then the yin circulation.
5. Eyes look straight ahead
6. Position your thumb so that the skin between it and the four finger is in a single line, not double lined.
7. Toes scrunch under slightly, put more pressure on toes and heels then on the inside of the foot (k1), this makes K1 yin and drags yang energy down. Sink weight down on the heel not on K1 or brain damage may occur.
8. When you do Qigong you Open the Gates for a free flow of energy around the Upper  Heavenly Circulation. When you end you must Close the gates so as to not loose all the benefit from the Qigong.
9. END - While breathing in let arms flow out and up to the sides hands go yin,  then bring both palms to shoulder height and press downward while breathing out when hands are  pushing down in front, to the lower tan tien, yang knees straighten and legs lift body up.

Details of 9. end - slowly raise both palms out to your sides and up to shoulder height inhaling as you do this, then bring both palms to shoulder height and press downward from chest to lower abdomen (Tan Tien) as you exhale and straighten your legs slowly. Do not make any sudden movements nor in particular have anything cold to drink for at least five minutes, just walk around slowly. Take hands behind your back crossing right hand over left both palms facing away from your butt, if you’re a female left over right. Then while crossing hands behind your back bring your left foot over to your right foot 90 degrees apart, bring your right foot up flex it and breath out. Breath in leg rises up and breath out leg moves down ankle is 90 degrees on both movements. Do 10X each leg is one time. Then move hands out yin and yang down to your sides during the tenth time. Place your feet and stand up.  

In Qigong there are Four specific breathing methods

1. Natural Breath - As described in DVD - A natural breath releases tension, it is the cause of 90% of all illnesses. Do not breath into the chest that’s tension. Breath in stomach puffs out , Breath out stomach empties; this is the way a baby normally breathes. Do not force the breath hold for a couple of seconds then breath out.

As described in Power Taiji Book Pg.8 - Natural Breath you must breath like a child. As you inhale, the area just below your chest must expand, If you are totally relaxed, especially the shoulders and chest area, then this is the only way that you can breathe. Just allow your stomach to stick out when you inhale. As you exhale, the area that has filled up with air must obviously contract, and so the stomach area goes in. Many people have difficulty with this. It is tension that caused us to lift the chest when we breathe. The Qi rises up into your chest, and you become tense and top-heavy. Breathe slowly but naturally and only as your own rhythm dictates. Don’t force your breath; only inhale until it stops naturally and them wait until you want to exhale naturally. There should be a slight pause between the in and out breaths.
2. Reverse Breath - As described in DVD - Breath the opposite of natural breath, when you Breath in stomach in Breath out stomach out, still don’t breath into chest. As described in Power Taiji Book Pg.14 - Reverse breath, which the abdomen is sucked in with each inhalation and relaxed with the subsequent exhalation.     
3. Prenatal Breath - As described in DVD - Breath in stomach in and chest out, Breath out stomach out chest in. As described in Power Taiji Book Pg.15 - Prenatal Breath, in which a rolling action of the abdomen occurs (the lower abdomen is sucked in with the inhalation while the upper abdomen is pushed out, then the lower abdomen is pushed out on the exhalation while the upper abdomen is sucked in).                                                                    4. Tortoise breath - As described in DVD - Is a prenatal breath where you hold the breath 7 seconds before you breath out.

As described in Power Taiji Book Pg.15 - Tortoise Breath, an advanced prenatal breath in which we hold the inhalation for seven seconds. Tortoise breath gives the two energies, inner and outer a chance to mix at the “border” (the diaphragm). When we exhale, the inner Qi (below the diaphragm) takes a little of the outer Qi (the inhaled air) with it to the lower tan-tien, thus increasing our store of internal energy
There are certain times when we breath in the nose and out the mouth called a Cleansing breath taking air in a small hole through the nose and expelling it out the mouth, good after a fast.

Power Taiji Book Pg.6

Cleansing breath -  Inhaling through the nose and exhaling the mouth.
Tonic breath - (inhaling through the mouth and exhaling through the nose). Use a tonic type breath if you been sick and are recuperating you breath in your mouth and out your nose.

The Triple Heater Qigong -  Easy way and Advanced way will balance the energy in the whole body. Balances out Yin and Yang energy. Three spaces that do the work.

Triple warmer is a term used in acupuncture to denote the whole body.

There are three heating spaces in the body

1. Lower - is the elimination organs,
2. Middle - is the digestive organs,
3. Upper - represents respiration and the mind.
A natural balance of Yin and Yang energy of the triple heater is needed for the body to be totally in balance, for a balanced relaxed normal life. If out of balance you feel out of sorts all the time.

Too much Yang makes you angry all the time and too much Yin makes you timid.

Easy Way -  Squatting in this Qigong can be modified for older people. The squatting is important if you can do it. It is the best exercise you can do for the colon. A good strong colon makes other organs strong. Chin in, back straight, tongue on hard palate, feet parallel or feet turned out can give you hernia when you squat, natural breath.

Easy Way and Advanced Way - Squat straight down feet flat and parallel to the floor, pull chin in so your back stays straight not round, push out with your elbows and simply sit there. When you come up do not raise the buns first push straight up from the heels. Your ankles will get stretch and flexibility. Do lower tan tien, middle and upper heater. Do each warmer three times. Can be done at an advanced level by squatting for each warmer. Do this exercise after dawn and before dusk to balance Yin and Yang.

Do Triple Warmer exercise, then Qigong, then Tai Chi to enhance your Tai Chi form

Elevation of the Three Heaters Qigong - Harmonizes the three vital forces of elimination, digestion and sexual energy. Do after Triple warmer exercises and before normal Standing Qigong. Harmonizes Stomach and Spleen Pair Qigong - Do after elevation of Three Heaters. Stomach is the Earth or grounding. Spleen is the system to the Stomach. Balances Yin and Yang energy in the Stomach and Spleen, good for grounding solidness, normalness, and just for getting things done.

Kidney Exercise Qigong - Tones Kidneys. If you have High Blood Pressure do this exercise but not to excess.

In China Qigong is all associated with the Martial Arts. You need a strong healthy body and mind before you can defend yourself and family. You have to learn how to heal others before you can hurt others.

The Bear Qigong - Bagua, the Black Bear looks back. Heels anything to do with the whole stomach area.

Practice every morning and night, your balancing out your brain and body. Enhance your health, things in your life can change.

This tape teaches the interesting and helpful, 12 meridian healing Qigongs. Each Qigong helps its associated organ and meridian as well as working upon things like, gaining more internal power, or simply having confidence etc. The meridians through which the Qi flows have a direct effect upon that flow of Qi. When we activate these meridians we have a direct effect upon the internal organs and therefore upon the health of the body in general. If you re-balance one meridian, all are balanced as all are connected.
