www.njqinternalarts.com The world within, creates the world without. NJQ stands for Nei Jia Quan, translated means ‘internal fist’. Nei Jia Quan is comprised of the Taoist internal martial arts Bagua Zhang, Tai Chi Chuan, and Xing Yi Quan, which focus strongly on long-term health and therapeutic healing of the body, their roots come from the tradition of nei gung Taoist meditation. The Taoist martial system are based on traditional Chinese medicine, their focus is health, healing, therapeutic diagnosis and the development of a clear meditative state of mind. Their content is formidable for fighting and sit as the roots of many modern day fighting arts, however, for a practitioner fighting is viewed as a useful by-product.

DVDs are a great way to have training on tap to back up your normal weekly training and a chance to see how other instructors do forms or interpret movements. You should also try to expand your knowledge and experience in your art and also get to know about other people’s art so you understand what is out there.

Martial Arts Myths 6 of 12

The Hits and Myths of Martial Arts – Myth 6

by
Chris Hepler and Jennifer Brandes
A Role Playing Games Perspective

Myth 6: A fight only concerns the combatants.

Ironically enough, while the authors of this article were playing an Earthdawn session to take a break from writing, a fight broke out ten feet away from us between two drunk individuals, and the table we were rolling dice on was up-ended to be used as a weapon. We didn’t know the people and we weren’t involved in their fight, but they still managed to ruin our night, and piss us off enough to call security on them. Every single unnamed character will have a reaction to a nearby combat, if only talking to the police afterward or running for help.

Defeated opponents are obviously potential threats, but simply killing your defeated opponents doesn’t end of the story, either. What’s the number one motivation in a martial arts movie? Revenge for someone slain! So what happens when your characters are doing the slaying? Every person they waste has had parents, and probably has living relatives, friends, and maybe lovers. They may not all be butt-kickers themselves, but if they’re determined, they can find someone who is — the cops, the mob, “adventurers,” or the local military.

NPCs are also not without brains. Aware ones will try to recognize potential trouble — like adventuring groups — before it starts. After watching a few fights in a medieval setting, many people will realize that anyone who can reach you with a sharp weapon without you noticing can probably give you a mortal wound in under a second. Legal consequences aside, that’s a very short time between alive and dead. So in most sword and sorcery settings, people are going to be very nervous if six armored strangers with swords and daggers walk into their local drinking hole.

They’re going to want more than words to guarantee those swords will not kill people they care about — a “peacebond” tie, a “no weapons” policy enforced by the bouncer, similar weapons, or at least distance and clutter to give them some warning time. This is, of course, a nice way for the GM to down-power mighty player characters to provide some drama in the next fight.

Other Myths…

1. Taking a martial art is the same as knowing how to fight.
2. Self-defense is the same thing as fighting.
3. My martial art can make you unbeatable.
4. There’s no difference between “fighting” or “kicking butt” and killing or maiming people.
5. Fights last ten minutes or more, at which time the hero can make an impressive comeback.
6. A fight only concerns the combatants.
7. Martial artists don’t need or use weapons.
8. Fighting with two weapons is difficult or confusing.
9. Weapons are heavy.
10. You can mash someone’s nose bones into their brain and kill them with a single mighty palm strike.
11. All martial arts look like Tae Kwon Do.
12. A style is a style.
