Chiron Articles

Thanks for taking the time to look at my articles page. It contains a selection of articles, reviews and reports; most are written by me with the exception of those that are indicated not to be.

Perhaps by reading my writings you'll get a little insight into my approach to the arts, and thereby have an opportunity to decide whether it meets with your ideas of what you want from the practice of tai chi chuan.
