In many old martial arts films you often see a master capable of extraordinary supernormal feats such as being able to move with the speed of wind, throw incredibly heavy objects, destroy them with a strike, stride over water, or even fly through the air. Are such things possible? The Chinese Taoists say "yes" if the master practiced special exercises to cultivate their inner energy, or yang chi (qi). These practices to cultivate inner power are called nei-gong, or the internal martial arts, and are related to the mastery of the kundalini energies cited in Indian yogic and Buddhist literature, which also explains the various superpowers that become possible with its cultivation. Many people today want to be able to attain such supernormal skills, or they simply want to understand why and how these skills were cultivated so they might be duplicated as best possible. Some practitioners of Tai Chi Chuan, Hsing-Yi, Ba Gua Zhang, Five Animals, Aikido, Karate, Judo, Northern Shaolin, and other Kung Fu Wushu traditions have alternatively damaged their bodies from their practice, or have reached a training plateau, and want some sure methods to break their current limits and bring their martial arts skills to the next level. This book explains the major practices on how to properly cultivate nei-gong safely to achieve all these objectives. The information provided, because of its advance nature, was usually considered the high "secrets" of martial arts lineages made available only to the top students who also practiced breathing methods and meditation. It explains how to cultivate the mythical martial arts through the initial practice of qi-gong, and then inner nei-gong exercises involving anapana, pranayama, one-pointed visualization, kasina meditations, and sexual cultivation. It provides training information applicable to Iron Palm, Iron Shirt or Dim Mak techniques, which though incredible in themselves still fall far short of the special supernormal achievements possible after a martial arts student successfully opens up their chakras and chi channels, in particular their sushumna central channel and the macrocosmic chi circulation within the body. This is the only book in English offering detailed instructions on how to cultivate the Taoist concept of shen, which is the stage of awareness attained after cultivating your chi to a high level. For purposes of attaining inner gong-fu (kung fu), it also teaches how to cultivate the Six Yogas of Naropa and the Tibetan tantric mantras for opening up the body's central chi channel. In terms of specific long term nei-gong methods, it stresses visualization and anapana practices which are explained in conjunction with more advanced techniques for dissolving inner energy blockages. Rather than just focusing on internal martial arts kung fu, the authors go even a step further also bring forth many rarely discussed modern training principles for peak athletic performance that can be applied to martial arts, and provide practical information on various vitamin-mineral supplements, detoxification routines, and bodywork therapies that can help heal martial arts injuries and lead to improved skills even if the nei-gong route of internal martial arts energies and gong-fu is not mastered. This is a truly unique book, quite different than what's normally available for the martial arts tradition, because it provides full materials on topics raely covered elsewehre, and reveals not one, two or three but a plethora of inner training practices, even for qi-gong, along with what are normally considered their secret training details.

2nd edition has been edited by a native English speaker. Many grammatical mistakes have been fixed. The book is revised with clearer and easier to understand English explanations of Internal Arts concepts. The "Key to the Internal Arts" is a good introduction to the Internal Arts aspect of the martial arts. Not only are the Internal Arts effective in self-defense, but is also good for maintaining physical and mental well-being of the practitioner. Whether an external martial artist, a beginner with no experience in the internal arts, or an expert with many years of experience; there is much value, knowledge, and personal experience within the contents of the book. For a beginner, it is a good and accurate introduction to what the internal arts are. The author reveals what the "Key" to the internal arts is, and by knowing the key, a beginner can distinguish what real internal arts are. Also, the author reveals red flags on how to spot fake internal arts practitioners or teachers. As it is true, that the internal arts are rare nowadays, it is still possible to find the right teacher. For those with experience, the concepts and theories in the book may be of interest as it may further enhance their knowledge of the Internal Arts. In addition to concepts and theories of the internal arts, it also provides a brief history, culture, and philosophy of the internal arts. Through the author's explanation based off his personal knowledge and experience, he talks about concepts and theories that emphasize physics, body mechanics, natural relaxation of body and mind, leverage, gravity, balance, motion, philosophy, and Qi. The internal martial/energy arts have been studied for centuries by many people. Yet, most of them have not found the key as it has been kept secret. Author, Jinho Lee, trained in the external martial arts for fifteen years, but was not able to find the key. After switching his training from external to internal martial arts, he learned much more than martial skills from them. Wisdom and enlightenment awaited him at the end of the training. He came to Western society in 2008 and found that many people still had misconceptions about the martial arts. Most people could not accept the traditional way as business commercialization had ruined the essence of the martial arts. Modern people are familiar with the commercial dojo system, so it is hard to make the traditional method of training appealing to them. This book shows how the martial/energy arts market in Western society appears from the view of a person who has trained in the traditional way of the internal arts in Asia. The internal arts system sounds as if it goes against conventional knowledge of effectiveness in self-defense. It does not use conventional muscle strength to generate power. You should connect to the power of the earth and heavens, and use it. The body becomes a carrier of internal power. You will be able to transmit internal power from your body to the opponent. Changing your body takes a long time, as people have developed bad habits and postures while they were growing up. What he can say about the internal arts is simply: "Relax and empty yourself, then the earth and heavens will be on your side." "Remove your strength and unnecessary tension, then you will be able to generate force." There is much more to do in your practice. This book will explain some techniques and theories to you. The author has tried to make this complicated system easier to understand for modern day people. Modern society is too busy, so people do not have time to dedicate to the martial arts anymore. He has experimented with various methods and has discovered how to make learning the internal arts easier and simpler than the traditional way. This book will guide you in understanding what the internal arts are and will help you discover the key.

Ellis Amdur's writing on martial arts has been groundbreaking. In Dueling with O-sensei, he challenged practitioners that the moral dimension of martial arts is expressed in acts of integrity, not spiritual platitudes and the deification of fantasized warrior-sages. In Old School, he applied both academic rigor and keen observation towards some of the classical martial arts of Japan, leavening his writing with vivid descriptions of many of the actual practitioners of these wonderful traditions. His first edition of Hidden in Plain Sight was a discussion of esoteric training methods once common, but now all but lost within Japanese martial arts. These methodologies encompassed mental imagery, breath-work, and a variety of physical techniques, offering the potential to develop skills and power sometimes viewed as nearly superhuman. Usually believed to be the provenance of Chinese martial arts, Amdur asserted that elements of such training still remain within a few martial traditions: literally, 'hidden in plain sight.' Two-thirds larger, this second edition is so much more. Amdur digs deep into the past, showing the complexity of human strength, its adaptation to varying lifestyles, and the nature of physical culture pursued for martial ends. Amdur goes into detail concerning varieties of esoteric power training within martial arts, culminating in a specific methodology known as 'six connections' or 'internal strength.' With this discussion as a baseline, he then discusses the transfer of esoteric power training from China to various Japanese jujutsu systems as well as Japanese swordsman-ship emanating from the Kurama traditions. Finally, he delves into the innovative martial tradition of Daito-ryu and its most important offshoot, aikido, showing how the mercurial, complicated figures of Takeda Sokaku and Morihei Ueshiba were less the embodiment of something new, than a re-imagining of their past.
