Tai Chi 's body technique is very complicated. According to Chen Xin , there are high body technique, low body technique, turning body technique, advance body technique, retreat method, rise method, fold body technique, lift body technique, flying body technique... This is just a general body technique, which is macro, easy to teach and easy to learn.
What is really difficult to learn is microscopic, coordinated with techniques, and rotation of opposites and unity. If the teacher does not say it and the scholar does not touch it, outsiders will almost not see it, and they will not know it. This is the real internal martial arts - internal movement.
The reason why I wanted to mention this was because I was stimulated. Seeing a very famous senior brother practicing boxing, he always twisted around, as if he was moving all over his body, but in fact he was losing all his strength. The appearance of internal martial arts is just a harmonious one, and you cannot see anything obvious, otherwise you will be wrong. In addition, Chen's fist always sways and there is no need to mention it.
This is all about fine kung fu and real kung fu, but very few people can speak and practice.
Take the right hand to draw the right circle as an example.
Beginners, first use their arms to scratch their bodies, and do not move randomly, because they do not know how to move correctly, and moving randomly will affect arm practice.
At this time, this practice method is from simple to traditional and from shallow to deep, because there are too many rules to be taken care of.
The error at this time is that the beginning, inheritance, turn and turn are not correct, because without the cooperation of body skills, all the four turning levels are wrong, that is, only learning the general outline.
The rules of the arm have been mastered almost completely, that is, the general rotation and self-transfer are required, and the body movement is needed.
The standards and rules for body craftsmanship are the unity of opposition. This is the only standard of Tai Chi, and the only one that can summarize the characteristics of real Tai Chi.
oppositional unity is not achieved in one step, but it is also added little by little. First, you must do the opposite unity of the two movements, that is, when the arms are closed, the body must turn outward, and when the arms are opened, the body must turn inward to form an opposite unity with the arms.
If you are familiar with the practice of two movements, you need to practice the body movement of turning the level. This also requires special practice, just practice how to cooperate between the arms and the body.
The first movement of the first movement must be practiced through the first movement of six-fold four-closed . The second movement must be practiced through the fifth movement of the small grapple and the first movement of the Vajra pounding pounding. The third movement of the third movement must be practiced through the second movement of the clothes and the fourth movement of the clothes and the fourth movement of the clothes and the fourth movement of the clothes must be practiced through the fourth and fifth movements.
especially the third turning point, which is the most difficult and can only be practiced in the end. It must have a folding of the chest and waist, not only the collapse of the appearance, but also the chest and abdomen inside must sink and rise again, forming a clipping force that is both unified and opposite to the arms, both in one direction and two directions. There is a vortex-like movement between the chest and abdomen.
The last body movement you need to practice is to cooperate with the arm rotation every turn. The beginning is to cooperate roughly in regions, as if there are four quadrants and four turning levels. At the end of the practice, you must rotate and rotate in opposite directions and uniformly.
If you add legs, feet, head, knees, shoulders, spirit, etc., it will be even more troublesome. Those who say Tai Chi are very simple, they don’t know. Tai Chi is extremely difficult, what is it difficult to be? Just think about how difficult it is to play table tennis well, and you will know how difficult it is to play Tai Chi, because it is a hundred times more difficult than playing table tennis.
