He Chi Chuan™ is a protocol. A step by step method for teaching and learning self-defense. It is an elegant synthesis of principles and techniques from various Asian martial arts with the end result being an effective approach to empty hand combat.
A He Chi Chuan™ practitioner is in effect a student of Tai Chi, Xing Yi, Qi Gong, meditation, medicine and a student of “one’s self”.
The SpiralFlow™ Method is a step by step approach to joint mobility and targets the main 18 joints of the body in a systematical and practical way. It is a suitable training adjunct to anyone’s fitness regimes. Originally an online training program for older adults, it is now taught to anyone interested in joint health, by Fernando Bernall who created the method based on his studies in fitness and Chinese martial arts.
