I started out learning Shuai Chiao from my uncles around age 8. At age 15, I started training under their teacher. Mostly in Shuai Chiao and Hsing I, but some Tai Chi Chen as well. So far it has served me well, and I feel lucky to get able to train under a highly skilled master from the "old school".
