Strike a pose
As always, I strike a pose and practice QiGong and Taichi whenever I can while traveling. I just returned from Luxembourg a great walkable city with lots of green and plaza in the city and adjacent ancient sites. BTW the common symbol, De Roude Léiw (The red lion), has a good frame from martial arts stand point, I might add.

@Madoka Urhausen thank you!
Section 4 (Self-Defense and Pressure Points) of the Course
I might have missed this, but would you share where the slides for this section related to anatomy, chakras, meridians, etc. can be found? Thank you.

Hello @Robin Crawford. The slides themselves aren't available as a separate download since they are built directly into the video lessons for visual reference. However, the secret to these specific graphics is that they are sourced directly from our source material! If you check the screenshot I've attached below (or fast-forward to the 43:40 mark of the video), you'll see the final slide listing the exact four books where these diagrams come from so you can pick them up for your library. They are also listed on page 23 of your workbook. Other students have actually requested this same section before. I'd be happy to extract some of the key anatomy and meridian diagrams from this lesson and send them directly into your Skool DMs so you have them handy for your notes. Keep an eye out for a message from me!

Nice visualization of peng.
Level Up?
What is the criteria to go from one level to another?

That is a great question, @Melody Armstrong! The leveling system you see is a built-in feature of the Skool app platform, rather than a reflection of your official course progress or certification path. The app calculates your level strictly based on community engagement. Every time you post an insight, leave a comment, ask a question, or receive a 'Like' from a fellow member, the system awards you points that automatically bump up your Skool profile rank. While some Skool groups choose to lock their classroom materials behind these engagement levels, we do not set our course up that way. All of your training materials and lessons are completely open to you based on your enrollment, regardless of what level your profile shows. It’s just Skool's fun way of celebrating members who are active in the chat rooms.

@Angela Castro welcome to the community! 🌿💜 It is a privilege to have you here with us. As a Licensed Massage Therapist and owner of Anjera Onsen Spa, you already know firsthand how powerful the mind-body connection is when it comes to pain relief and quality of life. The work you are doing with veterans and individuals seeking healing is vital. You are going to find that Tai Chi blends seamlessly with your hands-on therapy background. Not only will it give you an incredible, fluid toolkit to share with your clients for their long-term movement health, but it will also serve as a beautiful practice to protect and replenish your own energy as a practitioner! I’m reminded of when I was a practicing massage therapist, I used the principles of posture and flow from Tai Chi to help me do many massages in a day without tiring or without pain. Also, it helped me have a breakthrough with Lomi Lomi massage 😀 We have a handful of wonderful chiropractors, healers, and veterans in this group, so you are in great company here. Dive into the classroom modules at your own pace, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions along the way. Excited to walk this path with you
