I have had theopportunity to train with the son of Erle, Ely, and I must say that after about 10 years of practice with different masters, I really got the sense of RELAXATION one day after practicing with Ely...It was a great discovery as, when I got home, I realized I was actually relaxed! They have a great way to combine the martial aspect of tai chi with the healing side. I have to say it have wored for me, it does not mean it will work for everyone. As always, you have to practice and see if this is suitabel for you. Anyway, I hope this helps someone.
