Mastering the essentials of Tai Ji Chuan and improving the realm of boxing practice
The essence of Taijiquan 1,? Cooked? It is the basis of practicing Tai Ji Chuan well.
Tai Chi Chuan, will it? Cooked? Only by practicing well can we lay a solid foundation for Tai Ji Chuan. Hold on. It is the cell of Tai Ji Chuan, and of course it is the most basic unit of Tai Ji Chuan.
? Cooked? It is the foundation, the avenue, the right path and the only way to Taiji Wonderland! Without familiarity, the cultivation of all the connotations of Tai Ji Chuan will lose its dependence.
So familiarity is important, the first and initial effort, but we must follow the boxing theory and seek familiarity with boxing. Familiarity includes not only the name and gesture of the action, but also the usage.
Many people who practice martial arts, even after many years of practice, still don't know the specific usage of each move. For example, when Tai Ji Chuan fans push hands with others, they don't need a trick and a half in their routines.
Therefore, when learning or teaching Tai Ji Chuan routines, we must know at least one usage of each move. Only in this way can we easily remember the moves, learn quickly and apply what we have learned.
Only in this way can we quickly complete the ripening process of practicing Tai Ji Chuan and enter the ripening stage of pushing hands. Some of us are full of energy and have practiced many genres of routines, which is of course a good thing, but we must focus on practicing our martial arts. A hundred experts are better than one expert.
The stages of boxing and pushing are very different. When practicing boxing, psychological activities are based on non-confrontation, while pushing hands is a mutual restriction under confrontation.
The mastery of boxing frame is practiced under the guidance of the coach. But the proficiency of pushers is cultivated in the test of practice. The two are based on each other and promote each other.
But it is irreplaceable. When you are familiar with the usage of pushing hands, you should keep in mind the following words: strength is heavy, heavy is loose, loose is round, and round is medium. ? The important factors to get through the mature stage of pushing hands quickly are diligence, hard training, joint training, thinking and pondering; And the coach's sincere advice.
The cognitive stage of Sanshou is very different from that of pushing hands. Sanshou is a high-speed docking of hand, eye, posture, step and mind, and the pusher is a slow contact. The understanding stage of Sanshou is to test and improve the understanding stage of pushers.
Maturity is a dead thing, it is rigid and rigid. Sanshou mature stage should focus on activation.
Essentials of Tai Ji Chuan II. Zheng Zheng? Is the premise of practicing Tai Ji Chuan well.
You must be in good shape when you are ripe. Body shape is the correctness of the boxer's body shape and limb movements, also known as body posture. Practicing boxing is not only an internal cultivation, but also an external artistry. Especially in routine competitions, actions must be standardized in strict accordance with referee rules. Body posture is the premise of practicing competitive routines and traditional routines.
Master Yang Chengfu's Ten Essentials of Tai Ji Chuan, with incisive language and popular boxing theory, highly summarizes the essence of Yang-style Tai Ji Chuan, and is regarded as a classic of Yang-style Tai Ji Chuan, a guide for beginners and a direction for further study.
First: strong virtual spirit; Second: including chest pull; Three essentials: loose waist; Four essentials: divide the actual situation; Five essentials: sink your shoulders and hang your elbows; Sixth: the intention is not hard; Seven essentials: follow up and down; Eight essentials: internal and external integration; Nine essentials: continuous connection; Ten essentials: seek quietness while moving. These ten points should be concise and easy to understand as a study guide for boxing practitioners.
It is an important criterion to judge whether the boxing frame is neat and whether the boxing method is mature. These terms are both the foundation and the highest point, and they are simple and clear, which also contains the profundity and true meaning of Tai Ji Chuan. Correctly understanding and mastering these terms means mastering the essentials of Tai Ji Chuan.
Tai Ji Chuan Essentials 3? Quiet? Training Tai Ji Chuan well is the first priority.
It is important to practice Tai Ji Chuan with peace of mind. This is a prominent feature of Tai Ji Chuan, and it is also the main symbol that distinguishes it from other kinds of boxing. The ancients taught a lot in this respect. Like what? Seeking peace in sports? 、? Move quietly? 、? Although the body is moving, the heart is still? 、? Thought first, then body? 、? God is at ease and quiet, engraved on his heart? And so on, all illustrate the importance of practicing Tai Ji Chuan with peace of mind.
Teacher Feng said:? Conscience and calmness are the first priority in practicing boxing, which can also be called the general program. ? Virtual static kung fu is Tai Ji Chuan kung fu. The promotion of Taiji Kung Fu depends on the deepening of virtual static Kung Fu? ,? Does the degree of emptiness and quietness reflect the degree of Tai Ji Chuan's kung fu? .
? I'm so calm, I don't know all about it, and my limbs are gone. I don't know that I am my body and I am my body. Only my heart is full of awareness? .
To be calm, you must first control your heart. Zeng Guofan said, how? Thought must decide, spirit must decide, God must decide, and body must decide? . In a word, settle down. Taoism says? Based on silence? ,? Look inside, clear and quiet? .
Silence is to lock up your heart, but you can't forget it, so that you can leave it alone, think about it, have no desire, and have no thoughts, so that your ideology is really in a state of forgetfulness. To the virtual pole, keep quiet? Field.
But many beginners often can't calm down, which is the main reason for their slow progress. How can I be calm? In addition to fully realizing the importance of peace of mind, the most important thing is to find ways to cultivate peace of mind. My experience is to stand the pole-less pile and the mixed pile well.
Rodless pile, also known as natural pile, is one of the important piling methods in Tai Ji Chuan's internal work, and is regarded as the foundation of Tai Ji Chuan by boxers in past dynasties. Boxing theory says: Tai Chi practitioners are born with no promise. ?
When practicing this pile, the body is in a highly relaxed, heart-shaped, harmonious and invisible state, which is a balanced and harmonious internal movement. Eliminate distractions, concentrate on making the internal qi full, let the internal qi naturally flow all over the body, and achieve the unity of the inside and outside of the body.
Cultivate vitality, stabilize the center of gravity and correct body posture. Upright and comfortable, supported on all sides? , ? The tail is in the middle of the top and the head is hanging over the head. . The important posture of rodless pile is:? Three point one line? (Yongquan point, Yin Hui point, Baihui point), known as the essence of pole-less piles.
Endless pile is not only an entry skill, but also a good health skill. The function of the pole-less pile is to lay a foundation for Tai Ji Chuan and practice health preservation. It makes people get rid of all distractions, enter a state of freedom and chaos, integrate body and mind with the whole universe, and enter the realm of human emptiness, legal emptiness and emptiness.
Tai Ji Chuan's Three Exercises
First, practice reason but not strength.
? Why? Is the truth and principle of Tai Ji Chuan. Tai Ji Chuan practiced the Avenue, that is, the principle that the anode generates yin and the cathode generates yang in the transformation of Tai Chi Yin and Yang. Tai Ji Chuan combines rigidity with softness, rigidity with softness, rigidity with softness; Virtual pole gives birth to reality, real pole gives birth to emptiness, and virtual reality transforms.
Through concentrated practice, we can guide qi with intention, transport the body with qi, and follow the shape from intention to qi, so as to achieve full action, follow the whole body and fit inside and outside. When practicing, follow the rules, let nature take its course, and don't rush for success.
Exercising strength refers to practicing strength. Although this practice has exercised local strength to a great extent, this kind of strength is clumsy, rigid and lacking in spirituality, which the Tai Ji Chuan family did not take.
Second, practice books without practicing standards
? Ben. Refers to the source, the root, that is, the vitality in the kidney, the next set of kung fu. Yuan Yin and Yuanyang are stored in the kidney, which is the innate foundation and the source of qi. If the kidney qi is sufficient, the five internal organs are nourished, and the liver, heart, spleen, lung and kidney perform their respective duties, they will be energetic, strong, responsive and coordinated.
Internal qi filling is one of the sources. Secondly, on the basis of whole body relaxation, we can be satisfied with the abdomen, sink into the spring, achieve the spirit of the upper plate, revitalize the middle plate, stabilize the lower plate and take root.
? Mark? Refers to the local exercise method with the main purpose of practicing the strength and hardness of various parts of the body. Tai Ji Chuan is a family boxing, practicing both inside and outside, focusing on practicing internal skills. Bacon runyuan? ,? Cultivate its roots, its branches and leaves will flourish, nourish its source, and its veins will grow? .
Third, practice and not practice.
Bodybuilding is the technique of practicing the whole, and strokes are the offensive and defensive meaning of each movement. Beginners of Tai Ji Chuan often like to know the usage of every move and every situation.
If we only explain and understand the usage and connotation of Tai Ji Chuan from the perspective of strokes, it is impossible to get the essence of Tai Ji Chuan. Practicing Tai Ji Chuan should go through the process of skillful routines, correct movements, and seeking softness, so that the whole body can follow each other, combine inside and outside, enrich the internal qi, and practice kung fu to the upper body.
Tai Ji Chuan mainly trains his overall skill. When facing the enemy, he gives himself to others according to the objective situation, improvising and not sticking to one move and one potential. The internal qi is full, and the whole body is like a ball full of gas. All the feelings should be felt and you can hit it anywhere. As boxing theory says:? What should we do when the enemy comes? Without thinking, there will be regularity. ?
