They say there are no secrets. But there are. The hard part is getting somebody to teach them to you. And then the harder part still is figuring out what is being communicated to you. And once you have the information, what do you do with it? How would you fight with Internal Martial Arts? We will discusses this. First, the secrets. 1. Body Sponsorship. 2. Zhong Ding Jing. 3. Pure Internal Power. 4. Gravity Power. 5. Shi. And then we'll look at some examples of people who have these skills. But then we'll do something that is probably unique. We will discuss how you might apply these principles in a modern fighting context. With this book I hope to present an argument for the validity of Internal Martial Arts beyond "that slow stuff old people do," and to bring this series of arts into this century.

Pressing into the Power takes you on a journey through the bondage of impossibilities and safely guides you to the realm of divine possibilities. Derek L. Calhoun, a duly consecrated and ordained bishop, laments the fact that we’ve become a society that struggles to discern right from wrong. He also observes how the COVID-19 pandemic, George Floyd protests, and the Jan. 6, 2021, riot in Washington, D.C., have led many to lose hope—just like the Israelites in the days of Jonathan. But he contends the pandemic and other life-altering events were not a call to run and hide. They were a call to regroup and rise out of the ashes of obscurity. This book examines the power of forgiveness, the liberating power of faith, the intersection of faith and technology and, the transformative power of listening to the Lord. Discover a simplistic approach to moving closer to the Lord that allows you to break free from the routines of religion with the powerful insights in this book.

Upshaw Jr., Senior Pastor, New Vision International Ministries, CT., Alumnus, Yale University, TEDx Speaker and Entrepreneur

"The Mind Leads the Chi and the Chi Leads the Body." People always talk about using chi power, but how do you get to it? With a warmhearted, candid wit and passion for personal growth Derek Croley explores this profound topic in plain English. By the time he was in his early twenties his body was all but broken from a lifetime of athletics. His knees didn't work, he couldn't even lift his right arm, his back always hurt and his head wouldn't turn. Most importantly he couldn't effectively practice his life's passion- Martial Arts. In his quest to reinvent himself, Derek traveled to China to train under the Internal Power Masters. After over a decade of work he healed his body, becoming more powerful than he ever was before, but was left with a new challenge. How do you teach this enigmatic, foreign material in a way that makes sense? After a over a decade of trial and error- mostly error- he cracked that secret code as well. Learn the 6 Steps to Self Mastery through Internal Power Training to repair your body, age gracefully, and become more powerful than ever before.
