Applied Tai Chi Chuan by Nigel Sutton

The author presents the art of tai chi chuan in its holistic entirety as well as addressing the controversy over the historical development of what is arguably the most practised style in the West, Chen Man Ching's tai chi chuan.
Nigel is a martial artist with more than forty years of experience who has spent the last two decades living, training and teaching in Southeast Asia. The author of a number of books on the Asian martial traditions and a lineaged initiate in many of these systems, Nigel continues to research, through practice and participant observation, the martial traditions of the region. Working from his foundational knowledge and experience of the taijiquan of Cheng Man Ching Nigel has broadened the scope of his studies to include other Chinese martial arts, multiple styles of silat, traditional Filipino Eskrima (Eskrima De Campo JDC-IO) and Thailand's Krabi Krabong. Nigel holds instructor rankings, many of them at a senior grade in Taijiquan, Xingyiquan, Baguazhang, Liangshi Wushu, five styles of Silat, Eskrima DeCampo JDC-IO and Krabi Krabong. His current research is focused on the core elements common to all martial arts which constitute effective martial movement. Nigel is the author of many books, and is author of the Tambuli Media book, Wisdom of Taiji Masters.
