Tai Ji Chuan is a comprehensive systematic project, and it is a comprehensive subject with the characteristics of China traditional culture. It involves the problems of man and society, man and nature, and the human body itself, including classical literature, physics, health preservation, medicine, martial arts, physiology, psychology, sports biomechanics and so on.
Second, adaptability:
Tai Ji Chuan's movements are soft and slow, and the boxing style is not difficult to learn. Moreover, the height of posture and the amount of exercise can be different according to the individual's physique, which can meet the needs of different ages and constitutions. It is not a patent for the elderly and the weak.
Third, security:
Tai Ji Chuan's relaxed and supple movement features smooth movements without exertion, which can not only eliminate the original stiff strength of boxing practitioners, but also avoid the damage of muscles, joints, ligaments and other organs. It can not only change people's habit and instinct of exertion, but also avoid the possibility of chest tightness, tension and qi and blood obstruction caused by improper exertion and breathing.
Basic criteria for judging Tai Ji Chuan.
From a technical point of view, there are at least three basic characteristics:
The first is the special attack. Tai Ji Chuan is a fist, not a drill, not a dance. So although he does not advocate martial arts, he can use martial arts, and this kind of martial arts is different from some martial arts. He attaches great importance to "combining rigidity with softness" and stresses "attachment to others" and "self-sacrifice", which is a very high-level martial arts.
Secondly, outstanding philosophy. There are profound philosophies from the emergence of Tai Ji Chuan to the specific movements, which have risen to the level of rational guidance and merged into specific action forms, such as the dialectical philosophy of Yin and Yang, specifically to the reality, opening and closing, movement and so on in boxing.
The third feature is obvious fitness. In terms of fitness, Tai Ji Chuan's series of technical requirements are rooted in traditional medicine, conform to modern science, and show obvious fitness. As the boxing theory says, "Ask what it means, and you will live longer", and a large number of modern scientific experiments are just explaining this point.
In a word, it is considered to be Tai Ji Chuan with special attack and defense, outstanding philosophy and obvious fitness, and meets the technical requirements of Tai Ji Chuan series. We can focus on different practice purposes, but as a complete technical requirement of Tai Ji Chuan, the best practice effect should be the organic unity of the three.
