Personalized assessment and feedback is detailed and delivered in plain terms. Students wishing to move through curriculum will keep a weekly training journal or blog on this site, as well as submit video for movement evaluation.

The Chi Factory is designed expressly to help you avoid investing money, time and effort only to discover that what you have been training is a sham or not useful in daily life. If you are on the fence about Chi Factory, please consider that fact that finding a good teacher is very difficult when you know nothing about your intended study. At the very least, commit to complete Stage 1 of Chi Factory syllabus.
After completion of Stages 1 and 2 those who do not want to continue on with training will be able to tell if another program has the goods. Nothing is worse than committing yourself to something, only to find out that you were wasting your time. The curriculum is continuous and ongoing. Those committed students who train 3 times per week outside of class, will find e best results and move quickly through the material.
After Stage 2 is compete and movemet has been closely evaluated, dedicated students are eligible to access UCB Program Live classes online.
This class is self paced with live review sessions. Students who practice 3 times per week outside of class usually have the skills needed to move on to Stage 2 in 15 to 20 weeks. Class duration is 55 - 65 minutes.
Materials presented are for anyone who has completed Stage 1.
Each week we cover one topic. Topics are grouped and follow a clear and straightforward progression. Continue to improve your health & fitness using Traditional Internal Kung Fu Techniques including:
Theory is useless without something to practice. Each week we go deeper and add a bit more to our training syllabus.
