Physical Skill

Why did you invent the Art of Effortless Power?

I wanted to create an art based on fundamental observations of physics, perception, intent, impulse, and energy — an art that gears itself to meet any situation because it is founded on understanding the principles in which interaction takes place. 

I wanted an art that would be adaptable and well-designed, forged through training and techniques but designed to teach something beyond the form. 

The Art of Effortless Power is such an art.

The Body

(The Art of Effortless Power)

Cheng Hsin is pursued through a study of the body. We study its design, function, movement, awareness; and the pursuit of an effortlessly effective, fully functional and integrated body-being.

We work on learning, training and incorporating the Principles of an Effortlessly Effective Body-Being, the principles upon which effective use of the body depends.
