How It All Began: Origins of the Healing Tao System

20130.0 / 1093 min
Documentary

Overview

At a time in history when Yoga was practiced in basements and martial arts were found mainly in the movies, Taoist Internal Alchemy was not accessible to the western world. This was the time Master Mantak Chia came to America with a dream to share Taoist wisdom. Early seekers of the Tao found him in a small office in New York City's Chinatown and the Healing Tao system was born and another bridge was formed between east and west.
