Hello, I am new here so this is my intro as well. I am 40 year old female currenlty studying Tai Nui in Ohio. My Master is 68 years old and was a direct student of Nejad's. I am looking for any information re: anywhere this may be being currently taught or studied. Also any other info would be greatly appreciated! Thank You, Amanda
Welcome! I have never heard of Tai Nui before. Can you tell me a bit about it or direct me to a good source?
Hi, What do you think about the art and how do you like it? Never heard of Nejad before today. A Google search turns up some info on the founder and style that is kind of interesting though. Looks like a mix of lots of different arts. Kenpo, TKD, TSD, Kali, and several others. There's also talk of the founder, Behrooz Nejad allegedly being arrested on murder charges while visiting Saudi Arabia and never being heard from again.
I currently study the TaiNui style and I love it...it is true that it is made up of multiple styles and that Nejad was arrested for murder. I am looking for anyone who has information where this is being taught and students that learned the TaiNui style under Nejad.
This style was discussed starting in 2004 . You might look at this thread : http://www.martialartsplanet.net/forums/showthread.php?t=18586&page=1 Particularly this piece perhaps? http://www.martialartsplanet.net/forums/showpost.php?p=1074880606&postcount=7 LFD
