Already as a child I have been interested in the world of martial arts. At the age of 16 I found master Sarafnia, who taught me intensively to this day in Shaolin Kung Fu, Kung Fu Toa, KutaeKa-Do and Tai Ji Chen as well as Zen, Taoism and other philosophical beliefs and ways of meditation.<\/p>\n<p>I almost lost my leg in the age of 19 because of a doctor mistake and was told that I will never be able to run again. As soon as I could move on crutches I was back at the Dojo, but had to focus on inner exercises like Qi Gong and Tai Chias well as my rehabitilation of course. Despite of the extreme fast recovery, it took about 2 years until i could start my intense Kung Fu training again.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2127\" title=\"Kung Fu Toa K\u00f6ln\" src=\"https:\/\/iaido-koeln.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/kung_fu_toa_koeln.jpg\" alt=\"Kung Fu Toa K\u00f6ln\" width=\"500\" height=\"344\" \/><\/p>\n<p>During my travels in China I have exhaustively studied Tai Chi and Qi Gong at Grandmaster Feng Zhiqiang&#8217;s school in Peking and with Master Liu Yuan Yi in Suzhou near Shanghai.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/iaido-koeln.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/taichi_china.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2406\" title=\"Tai Chi in China\" src=\"https:\/\/iaido-koeln.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/taichi_china.jpg\" alt=\"Tai Chi in China\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>My identification and fascination with samurai, Zen, the katana and japanese culture eventually lead me to Japan, were I was introduced to the samurai&#8217;s martial art, Mugai Ryu.
