Wait. What? Seattle, Washington is over 5400 miles from China. So how did Seattle, of all places, get to be such an important region for teaching, learning, and practicing the ancient Chinese martial art of taiji (Tai Chi)? How did it get started? Who were the pioneers who brought it to the U.S. and planted its seeds deep in the fertile soils of the Pacific Northwest?In this breakthrough book, 50 years in the making, Blake Emery and A.T. Dale trace the growth and spread of taijiquan through firsthand accounts from those who were there. From the early days to now, Seattle Taijiquan Pioneers profiles the stories of legendary instructors like Fook Yueng, Raymond Chung and Roger Tung as the skills were handed down from master to student through generations, starting in the 1970s.
