Shaolin has an ancient and relatively unknown taolu form named Rouquan (Gentle Fist). It was conceived over 500 years ago, dating back to sometime before the year 1500 A.D.

This powerful form contains advanced techniques, theories, and ideas that are rarely found in other popular forms of Tai Chi (Taijiquan).

It is this very form that Master Dao had learned from his master, Shifu Shi Guo Song, that kick-started the conception of our Shaolin Tai Chi course and the One TV television show that features Master Dao.

We are excited to finally add this important form to our LearnShaolin platform for online on-demand learning.

To unlock this advanced form, you will need to complete the Yunquan Gentle Fist form as well as have a Dedicated Subscription.

In this LearnShaolin v2.2 release, we have also added certificates for Yunquan Level 1 and Yunquan Level 2.
