Read full description

Tiggon is an internal training system app built on the principles of traditional Chinese internal martial arts. It does not simply place old methods into a phone. Instead, it reorganizes them in a modern way, creating an internal training system truly suited for modern users. It is not yoga. It is not meditation. It is not stretching. And it is not just another fitness app. Tiggon focuses on a deeper layer of physical training: how breathing enters the body, how the tendons and bones establish support, and how scattered force becomes unified strength. To achieve this, Tiggon translates traditional internal training experience — often fragmented, obscure, and difficult to explain — into a methodical system that modern users can understand, practice, accumulate, and benefit from over time: the Three Foundations of Internal Training. Breath Cultivation is rhythm. Structural Power is foundation. Unified Force is integration. Tiggon modernizes and reconstructs the traditional internal training system, making content that once often required lineage, teachers, and years of oral transmission accessible for the first time in a form that modern users can understand, practice, and build upon: 100+ single-form training methods, including many exclusive traditional Chinese internal training methods revealed publicly for the first time. A wide range of progressive practice sequences, helping users of different stages and ages enter the right training state more easily. Insight articles that explain difficult traditional concepts in a way beginners can understand. A practice rhythm engine based on the ACWR model, helping users keep their bodies in an optimal training state and build a sustainable exercise habit. Tiggon is designed natively for iOS and created specifically for the modern iPhone experience. It is also built to evolve into the future AI era. We are continuously developing real-time interactive 3D animation demonstrations, as well as AI-powered movement recognition and scoring, so that movements no longer have to be understood only through imagination, and practice no longer has to be judged only by feeling.
