To reap the full benefits of tai chi practice, you must cultivate the Taiji traits mentioned in the Classics.
These core practice concepts, such as open and close, empty and full, and center balance, apply to all types of taijiquan.
Master George Xu has split the study of these and other attributes into five distinct training routines.
They can be practiced in their entirety or adapted to meet the demands of the particular practitioner.
Volume 1 concentrates on Spiral Training and Power Stretching.
The drills in the Power Stretching portion emphasize stretching opposing sections of the body to expand the joints and allow unhindered passage of qi.
Spiraling, or silk reeling, energy is discussed in the second portion of Volume 1.
The drills are designed to train the practitioner to move qi inside to open and close various regions of the body in accordance with Chan Ssu Chin or silk reeling cocoon theory.
Volume 2 includes two more parts on internal training, standing postures, and taiji qigong.
Section Three’s standing postures are utilized for internal endurance training that focuses on structure, building “rootedness,” and filling the entire body with qi.
Taiji practice consists of both exterior and interior training: physical form components mixed with qi flow in the body.
The physical form practice covers the outward component, which includes factors such as structure, posture, proper movement, and weight distribution.
Section Four of Taiji qigong emphasizes internal issues such as qi flow, utilizing the mind to move the energy, and energy to move the body.
Taiji practice should include both elements.
The following drills are designed to help Peng Jin grow.
Peng is protecting himself.
Jin is delegating authority.
This instruction is required in order to employ taiji for self-defense.
It teaches the practitioner how to release strength from the “Eight Gates” of tai chi, which are the four cardinal directions of the circle and the four corners of the square of the tai chi form.
Peng (ward off), Lu (roll back), Chi (press), An (push), Chou (elbow attack), Lieh (split), Tsai (pull down), and Kao (shoulder strike).
They can be done in groups or alone.
This is commonly referred to as peng jin training.
This title deals with jin or power issuing training of all eight gates, not only peng or ward off.
These drills isolate and practice each of the eight jins.
These exercises are excellent for push hand practice in addition to self-defense.
