Yuèshān-guan [月山館; "Moon
Mountain School"] is the name of a private training activity
in near Seattle led by Mark Raugas that is
concerned with the development of skill at traditional
approaches to internal martial
arts.
The core of our practice is centered around
the Northern
Wú (吴) Tàijíquán, Yin Bāguàzhǎng, and Hebei Xíngyìquán
maintained as part of
Yin Cheng Gong Fa North America. I am a lineal student of
Zhang Yun, who studied under the late Grandmaster Wang Peisheng.
From time to time, I work with experienced martial artists interested
in these arts.
Yuèshān-guan is read as Gassankan in Japanese. In addition
to Chinese internal martial arts, I have practiced portions
of several older kenjutsu (swordsmanship)
traditions from Japan. More information on my training
background, interests, activities, and philosophy can be
found at the writing
project Inner Dharma.
I can be reached at the email address below.
