In Episode 20 of "The Martial Truth," I interview my teacher of Chen Style Taijiquan Practical Method, Master Chen Zhonghua. I have been learning from Master Chen for almost 25 years. He covers his early training, training with Grandmaster Hong Junsheng, and his Taiji mountain retreat in China, Daqingshan.
Anyone interested in learning more about Master Chen Zhonghua, Daqingshan (The Mountain), workshops or Zoom classes can go to:

How beautiful is this systemic narration, I wish you to host him in many episodes because he is an enlightened man who knows what he says. As a Muslim, I need to know a lot about martial arts in northwest China, where the Muslim minority there is isolated from us in the Arab world. Keep up sensi ❤

Thank you for having Master Chen Zhonghua on this great episode! Such a great mix of history and heartwarming personal life... He speaks from the things that are most important in life. It makes me want to redouble my own practice and visit the mountain... I hope to be able to attend his next seminar in my area. Thank you again!

Nice interview, it's very interesting to hear his perspective and experience. You can tell he is powerful if you know what to look for. I think to a lot of people his appearance will be unassuming and even soft. It's nice to see a master who doesn't have a huge ego and is a genuinely nice person. His definition of internal is not quite what I think most westerners think of as internal. To me and other people I train with, internal does not mean mysterious. It means more like what he says, hidden mechanics not observable from the outside. There is a lot going on inside, but outsider can't see it. I also think internal/external to us westerners means "martial arts that relies on athletics vs martial arts that rely on skill/ability". They both have skill don't get me wrong, but one has a higher percentage of relying on animal strength and speed than the other, and at the highest levels it's pretty much all the same just different ways of getting there. Thanks for this interview Michael, I hope I can train with him one day in the future.

Oh my, I remeber the "Shaolin Temple" movie when it was first shown in Russia, broadcast on TV😁😁😁😁. Around 1987-89. Watched it on TV, together with the girl I was in love with, and us both in love with that stuff. To put it short, to me this was like being admitted into the Promised land, oh my... Of course, many things changed since then.
