Cultural Corner: A Translated Poem About the World of Martial Arts

賈島: 劍客/Jia Dao: Jianke – Jia Dao: The Swordsman

十年磨一劍
霜刃未曾試
今日把示君
誰有不平事

Ten years polishing a sword,

Its frosty edge hasn’t been tried,

Today I take hold of it, to show the Lord,

Who has had an unjust career.

Hello, I'm your Uncle Sickness. My study of martial arts & Daoist philosophy began in college & has carried through the rest of my life. In that time, I've learned Ba Fan Shou, Tan Tui (10 & 12 Road versions), Taijiquan, Tanglangquan, Baguazhang, & my personal favorite, Xingyiquan. In addition, I've studied a number of popular Qigong styles & meditation techniques.
