Interview with Li Suicheng, the first 1 1 descendant of Zhao Bao in Tai Ji Chuan.
? Do you worship? Northwest Tai Chi Chuan sage? Teacher Zheng Wuqing is the greatest blessing in my life.
Li Suicheng, who loves martial arts since childhood, worships chivalrous people very much and is determined to learn martial arts to suppress violence and help the weak. He studied under Shaanxi famous teacher Cheng, Hebei famous teacher Xing Yi Quan and Hebei famous teacher Su Xi Shaolin Quan.
1963 1 1 month, under the age of 16, Li Suicheng met Mr. Zheng Wuqing, the master of Taiji Chuan, in Zhaobao, Wudang, on the recommendation of his neighbors. Mr. Zheng Wuqing, a former martial arts instructor at Whampoa Military Academy, was over seventy at that time. ? At that time, I met Mr. Zheng, played a set of red boxing and practiced a pipa stick. I'm sure I'll be praised by Teacher Zheng these days. Unexpectedly, Mr. Zheng picked up the crutches conveniently. Come on, young man! Why don't we play with sticks? . ? Speaking of teachers, Li Suicheng still remembers them vividly. As the saying goes, do you want to fight while you are young? . Li Suicheng, who thinks himself a martial artist, is of course a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. ? I picked up an eyebrow piercing stick and said to my husband, pay attention to your old man! ? As soon as the voice fell, I saw Mr. Wang slap the stick in his hand on the ground with a brush. I was just about to take the stick when his crutch lit on the back of my hand. ? Almost laughing, a 70-year-old man became stubborn? Here? Clean up? Yes In the next boxing match, Li Suicheng acted like a kung fu master? Scholar? . ? This made me feel the power and charm of Tai Ji Chuan for the first time, and also made me have an indissoluble bond with Taiji in my life! ? It is also in this disparity of strength? After learning from each other, Li Suicheng, who is sincere, honest and eager to learn, moved Mr. Zheng Wuqing. Since then, Li Suicheng has recruited Mr. Zheng Wuqing, the master of Tai Ji Chuan from Wudang, and has been practicing martial arts for 20 years under the careful guidance of his mentor. ? It was my teacher who brought me into the Taiji Hall. My teacher not only taught me martial arts, but also taught me the truth of dealing with people. This is the greatest blessing and luck in my life. ?

? Wushu is the soul of Tai Ji Chuan. Only when Tai Ji Chuan really participates in martial arts fighting can Tai Chi be revived and the profoundness of China's martial arts be proved to the world.
? Without fighting, Wushu becomes a dance? . In Li Sui-cheng's eyes, the charm of Wushu lies in the potential of exerting physical strength and skills in actual combat and confrontation. ? If our world champions in Tai Ji Chuan can't beat a second-rate or third-rate Sanda player, what's the point of Artest Tai Ji Chuan? Talking about the current misunderstanding of Tai Ji Chuan's development, Li Suicheng seems a little anxious. ? Whether it is Wudang or Shaolin, whether it is Nanquan or Beitui, there is only one purpose of practicing martial arts, and that is? Body is the foundation, and martial arts is the soul? . ?
However, for a long time, Tai Ji Chuan, as a family boxing, many people, including many Tai Chi masters, are more keen on studying the health-preserving concept of Tai Chi, but ignore the essence of Tai Chi. ? Through wits and wits, Taiji masters of past dynasties established Tai Ji Chuan's supreme position in China Wulin step by step. ? In Li Suicheng's view, Tai Ji Chuan is a master of martial arts, and impeccable is the highest stage of Tai Ji Chuan. Tai Ji Chuan's unique training method, the combination of rigidity and softness, and the techniques of throwing, hitting and grasping enabled Tai Ji Chuan to combine human strength and skills perfectly, so that he was invincible in fighting.
? Only when Tai Ji Chuan is truly integrated into martial arts fighting can Tai Chi be revived and the profoundness of China martial arts be proved to the world. ? It is this kind of thinking that, over the past 40 years, Li Suicheng has studied hard and deeply, and devoted all his energy to the excavation, arrangement and development of Tai Ji Chuan's offensive and defensive techniques. On the one hand, Li Suicheng vigorously promoted Tai Ji Chuan fitness activities in the society; On the other hand, Li Suicheng tried to combine the unique pushers and Sanshou in Tai Ji Chuan, Zhaobao and Wudang, summed up a set of practical training materials, and studied the relationship and characteristics of Sanda, wrestling and pushers, drawing on the strengths of hundreds of schools and combining the strengths of various schools, and created his own Taiji Pusher Road, which focuses on actual combat and attack. June 5438 +2003 10, the first taiji tuishou Taoist temple co., ltd in China was established to teach tuishou Taoist temple. Wudang, Wu Soul and other magazines published his Tai Ji Chuan fighting articles. Shaanxi TV Station, xi TV Station, Shaanxi Radio and Television News and Xi Education TV Station reported his deeds and Tai Ji Chuan's teaching contents many times. In just a few years, Pushing Hands Road has shown the world the brilliance of Tai Ji Chuan. In the 3rd Jiaozuo International Tai Ji Chuan Competition in 2005, Li Suicheng's six disciples won the first place at all levels in the Shaanxi Provincial Qualifying Tournament. At the first Wudang Zhaobao Tai Ji Chuan Friendship Conference held in June 5438+ 10, 2005, his team won the first place in the routine competition group, including 56, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80 and 85 kg Tai Chi Pusher gold medals at all levels. In 2006, Li Suicheng's disciples often played in Henan TV station? Wulinfeng? Sanda competition, all the way through, the end of the year into the semi-finals, which is the best performance of Tai Ji Chuan in Sanda competition for decades. In June, 2006, Li Sui-cheng's disciple Chang, participated in the Chinese wrestling competition in the 13th Sports Meeting of Shaanxi Province, and won gold medals in the 74 kg class and 62 kg class respectively. In 2007, his Taiji Pushing Taoist Temple represented Shaanxi Province in the 4th China Jiaozuo Tai Ji Chuan Pushing Challenge. Five people participated, three won the silver medal and two won the fourth place. Li Sui-cheng's taiji tuishou Dao is like a wonderful flower blooming in Wulin.
? Taoism and Tai Ji Chuan Theory are the guiding principles for us to practice the actual combat skills of Tai Ji Chuan, especially Tai Ji Chuan.
When talking about Tai Ji Chuan's theory, Li Suicheng is even more eloquent, combining his own learning experience with Taoism and Tai Ji Chuan's theory, and summing up the following points:
One is? Defeat the strong with the weak, and conquer the big with the small? With what? Impeccable? . Impeccable? From the Taoist point of view? Doing nothing? ; From a Confucian point of view? Mean? ; From a Buddhist point of view? Are they all empty? . From taiji theory? What is the saying of one yin and one yang? . ? Is it extraordinary that Tao can be Tao? ,? Tao? Can only perceive, can't see, can be full of all things, all things can't see. To achieve it? Impeccable? Is to achieve. Tao? State, simply put, is that when your opponent fights with you, you are like a shadow, which seems to have nothing. From the opponent's point of view, who are you? Tao? The state of. ? Tao? I mean change here. If your change can make your opponent never feel your existence, you will realize it? Tao? State, so, only if you change in the battle so that your opponent can't find you, you can always find your opponent everywhere. Opponents feel your presence. What is this? what's up Your opponent can't touch you. What is this? Nothing? . This change of existence is the embodiment of Tao, and what is it to achieve this state? Impeccable? Yes ? Impeccable? Is it the theory of Tai Chi Chuan? People don't know me, I know people alone? The state of. When you reach this level, do you really understand Tai Ji Chuan? Defeat the strong with the weak, and conquer the big with the small? Strategic thoughts and ideas. The basic meaning of defeating the strong with the weak is: in fighting, when the opponent is strong, can you change it to? Nothing? No matter how powerful and powerful the other person is, he can't find you, and it doesn't work for you, it doesn't work, it doesn't work, it's useless. What is the reason? what's up Become nothing; And although you are weak, even weak, your strength always acts on the other side, and the other side can't escape. Is this yours? Nothing? Became? what's up Can you use yours? what's up Fight the weakest opponent? Nothing? , which makes the opponent's? what's up Became? Nothing? Yes
And second? Control people with softness and strength? With what? Soft to the limit, just to the extreme? . ? The world is softer than water? ,? As good as water? This is what I said. Water is the softest thing in the world, but once it is under pressure, it becomes extremely powerful. For example, a water gun under high pressure can penetrate the steel plate; The water is weak, but? A drop of water wears away a stone? ; Although the water is weak, the turbulent sea contains huge energy, such as tsunami, which can destroy ten thousand mu of fertile land and high-rise buildings in the city in an instant; Although water is weak, it is good at changing and runs with the changes of mountains and rivers. Therefore, the characteristic of water is that it is good at changing. Because it is the softest thing, it can do its best. Tai Ji Chuan took advantage of the characteristics of water. In fighting, if my opponent can't touch me, I will be flexible and change with it. When I need to restrain my opponent, first, I can change the speed and become a very rigid force to penetrate my opponent, which is equivalent to changing water to increase pressure and acting on my opponent like a high-pressure water gun; The second is to conform to the momentum of the opponent. Follow the trend? Use your opponent's strength to make it weightless? Fall? Pour the wine. ? Take advantage of the trend with softness? His tactical thinking is soft to the limit, just to the extreme, God is soft to the tough, and beauty is controlling people with power.
Three is? Overcome the innate ability and learn to do something? With what? Calm down and get rid of instinct? . "On the Biography of Taiji" said, "There are many side doors, although the situation is different, it is nothing more than bullying, slowly letting go, and listening quickly. Strong and weak, slow and fast are all natural abilities, which have nothing to do with academic ability and have a future? . It says here. Innate natural ability? This is what we often say about animals? Instinctive behavior? ,? Instinctive behavior? It's a natural gift. Human instinct is also natural ability, and natural ability is also instinct. In the face of danger or special circumstances, instinctive behavior will automatically form the whole body mental and muscle tension, thus producing a state of self-protection tension. This nervous instinctive behavior is extremely unfavorable to our ability to coordinate and change in combat. Tai Ji Chuan is to overcome this? Instinctive behavior? , in boxing theory? Studying and doing things? .
Four is? Yin-yang inversion? With what? Change the direction of power in an instant? . Is it Tai Ji Chuan who changed the direction of power in an instant? Leverage power to control people and defeat the enemy? Magic weapon ? Yin-yang inversion? This is reverse thinking, plus? Inverted yin and yang? Another kind of reverse thinking, everyone knows, right? Negative is positive? , and those two? Reverse thinking? , it should be? The opposite is true? Yes This is Zhang Sanfeng's? Mental change? Thought is a flexible way of thinking, which can be changed instantly, which is what we often say? Alternating yin and yang? .
? Wudang Mountain is the holy land of Neijia Boxing and the birthplace of Tai Ji Chuan. Wudang's prominent position in Wulin depends on its impressive record.
Li Suicheng has always had a soft spot for Wudang Mountain and Wudang Neijia Boxing. However, when it comes to Wudang Neijia Boxing, Li Suicheng does not mince words. ? In recent years, Shaolin, karate, Muay Thai and Taekwondo have developed rapidly and become very popular. On the other hand, Wudang Neijia Boxing has gradually faded out of people's sight. Why is such a precious national quintessence so declining? It's because we didn't fully display the unique fighting function of Wudang Neijia Boxing, and didn't build a platform for Neijia Boxing, a platform for competitive communication with the national Wushu and the world Wushu. ? In Li Suicheng's view, in order to make Wudang Neijia Boxing stand proudly in the international fighting sports world, we must actively carry out martial arts confrontation projects and improve the rules of pushing hands and Sanshou competitions as soon as possible. Only through high-level exchanges, constantly summing up experience, constantly improving and perfecting, making progress in the competition and testing in the competition, can Tai Ji Chuan reach the impeccable highest stage. At the end of the interview, Li Suicheng also expressed his own idea:? Wudang Mountain must set up a ring all year round, facing the Wulin all over the world. Trials, invitational tournaments for famous artists and international competitions are often held, so that Wudang Neijia Boxing can compete with all kinds of boxing on the same stage, which not only publicizes and spreads Neijia Boxing, but also improves the skills of participating athletes by leaps and bounds. Wudang's prominent position in Wulin depends on its impressive record. If this development continues, Wudang Mountain, the holy land of Neijiaquan, will be famous all over the world! ?
