Answer 3

I could be wrong, but as far as I know, Iron shirt training is usually practiced in conjunction with Qigong training, so maybe you should try checking out Qigong sites for more info on how to find an instructor.

Answer 4

umm.... what did this have to do with an iron shirt?

Answer 5

The most complete Iron Shirt curriculum available in the US is taught by the Healing Tao, headed by Mantak Chia.

At first appearance the organization looks corny and new age-ish but I have his Iron Shirt books and they are excellent.

He has instructors pretty much all over the states.

Something like Iron Shirt should not be self-taught. Please, don't do it. You could hurt yourself in the later stages.

Find someone.

Dr. Jerry Alan Johnson also does Iron Shirt but I don't know if he teaches it.

Get the books to become acquainted with it.
