Precautions for 24-type Tai Ji Chuan
Compared with other Tai Ji Chuan routines, Type 24 has fewer movements and is more suitable for beginners to learn. Bian Xiao sorted out the matters needing attention, which is more conducive to the exploration of Type 24.
First, meditate, turn stiff and live.
A calm mind is wise, but a firm mind is calm. Beginners of Type 48 Tai Ji Chuan should learn boxing, Gong Zhuang and theory with an empty cup mentality, respect teachers' teaching, and establish confidence and phased goals in learning boxing.
The body carries out boxing through slow deep breathing and the rhythm of each movement, thus achieving the requirements of mastering routines and correcting body shape.
Meditation is to let yourself relax better when practicing the 24-style Tai Ji Chuan; The intention is to make better use of one's ideas.
Second, the practice of footwork and individual movements is the basis of practicing Tai Ji Chuan well.
There is a saying in Wushu: "Practice steps before practicing boxing, and practice piles before practicing martial arts". It can be seen that the importance of step by step. Gait learning seems simple and easy to be ignored by beginners. Gait is the key to stabilizing the center. Incorrect gait and improper gait will lead to unstable center of gravity. If the steps are too small and narrow, and the position, direction and angle of the feet are wrong, the upper body will be crooked and the center of gravity will be unstable. Therefore, the steps should be accurate and moderate, with front, back, left, right and center, and Baihui and Yin Hui points should always be on a vertical line. As the boxing theory says: "If there is no fault, it can bend and stretch, stand as a benchmark and live like a wheel." Therefore, the practice of footwork is conducive to the stability of footwork and the coordination of body shape and footwork, which can lay a foundation for further study of Tai Ji Chuan.
Third, the speed should be uniform.
Tai Ji Chuan should be slow rather than fast, so we should practice kung fu slowly, lay a good foundation, learn the movements first, and master the essentials. After proficiency, whether the speed is slightly faster or slower, you should keep a constant speed from beginning to end. Playing a set of Simplified Taiji Biography, the normal speed is 4 ~ 6 minutes. Some people practice slowly, which can be as long as 8 ~ 9 minutes, but it can't be too slow. It takes 8 ~ 10 minutes to play a set of "48 Style Tai Ji Chuan" and about 20 minutes to play "88 Style Tai Ji Chuan".
Fourth, the intention is not hard.
Every movement of Tai Ji Chuan is dominated by consciousness. When boxing, you'd better choose a quiet and sheltered environment. Don't talk to people when practicing boxing. Choose a certain driving posture according to everyone's different physique and health status, and do what you can. Practice easily, don't hurt too much, and it's even more uneconomical to fall down accidentally.
5. Boxing is like weaving a net.
This is from Tai Ji Chuan's practicality in attack and defense. I only practice pushing hands in this respect and have no actual combat experience. Conceptually, I think Tai Chi Kung Fu will come in handy only when Tai Ji Chuan's special skills are fully exerted.
Since pushers practice sticking together, they must make full use of it in attack and defense, otherwise the advantage of Taiji Chuan will be lost. In fact, flexibility is achieved by sticking together. Figuratively speaking, in pushing hands or actual attack and defense, no matter how big and fast the momentum is, touching our army is like hitting a net, and we can't advance and retreat freely, so heroes are useless.
The traditional boxing in the 24-style Tai Ji Chuan is more profound, because it is not only a combination of rigidity and flexibility, but also a boxing that pays attention to health preservation. Therefore, learning in Tai Ji Chuan is a long process, and it takes more time to master Tai Ji Chuan. Therefore, Tai Ji Chuan should not be eager for success, but step by step and lay a good foundation.
