Black Belt contributor Rob Moses is a kung fu alchemist. In 1977 he began his formal training under master Kam Yuen at the Tai Mantis Academy, where he received his degree in northern Shaolin/tai chi praying mantis.

In 1983, Moses began training with Kung Fu's David Carradine. His mission was to help prepare the actor for his role in an upcoming Chuck Norris movie titled Lone Wolf McQuade. In Kung Fu: The Legend Continues, Moses performed the role of Master Khan, the weapons expert and sergeant at arms.

In 2002 the United States Martial Arts Hall of Fame honored Moses with its Founder of the Year award for his development of tai shan nine palms. He received an International Soke Award as the founder of tai shan mantis, a complete martial system that incorporates traditional and neoclassical kung fu.

Moses then began to explore the relations between sacred geometry and the human form. Through years of experimentation, he perfected his theory by way of a “golden mean proportion” extracted from a Fibonacci spiral resulting in a trilogy of phi. The extent of his discovery is revealed in the book The Divine Code of Da Vinci, Fibonacci, Einstein and You, by Matthew Cross and Robert Friedman, M.D. Moses also developed the sphere knot, a patented shape that helps enhance workouts using geometry, alignment and balance.
