Chris-H is on a distinguished road



Hello All

My name is Chris Haynes

In 1998 I began my study of Chinese martial arts by studying Shao-lin gong fu, animal styles, weapons and the internal martial arts. After recovering from a knee injury I became a student of Marcus Brinkman in Boulder, Colorado, devoting myself to learning and researching the Yi Zong internal martial arts system. When Marcus left the Colorado area I continued my studies with Bill Metzgar and Owen Schilling. After years of individual instruction and concentrated personal dedication I have been appointed class leader and I assist with instruction and teach classes when necessary.

It will be a pleasure conversing with you about any type of martial arts.

Internal martial arts are Chinese styles like Baqua, Qingyi, and Tai Chi. They are considered "softer" than thier Shaolin counterparts.

Its always great to get another kung fu guy on the boards, chris. Welcome!

Hiya and welcome. People only consider them softer until they gat a 50+ yr old Tai Chi guy kick their butt. Very embarrassing and extremely educational.
