About this course
Intrinsic Energies of Internal Martial Arts is a comprehensive training program on developing the internal energies that give the internal arts their power. It is directed squarely at the martial practitioner, with an emphasis on building elastic power in both mind and body and on the practical skill that energy work is meant to produce.
Much of the material was filmed during closed-door workshops and instructor training courses, and it carries knowledge rarely made available outside those rooms — principles Sifu Mark Rasmus has refined across more than thirty years of teaching.
The curriculum moves from the Five Loosening Exercises through intrinsic energies training, Fa Jin development, Qi Gong sets, self-defense applications, and the underlying principles of internal martial arts. It rests on the foundation built in Elastic Force Qi Gong, and prior study of that course is recommended before beginning here.
This is a complete and fixed archive. All 250-plus lessons are available immediately, and the library is closed — no further videos will be added. What you enroll in is the whole of it.
