This site is a repository of information on Wudang Tai Chi Chuan and a central point to disseminate information to all of Dan's students around the world. In the library you will find a number of essays on Tai Chi Chuan by Cheng Tin-Hung and Dan Docherty.

In order to get make information available that doesn't fit neatly in any of the existing categories a new noticeboard has been added to the News section of the website. Here you will find collected all the square pegs which don't have a round hole.

Under Shop you will find an Amazon Book Stall with a list of books recommended by Dan for further reading on tai chi chuan, chinese history and culture. You can also download copies of Dan's Short Form Book.
