An introduction to Tai Chi Chuan
 Keith Roost WuDang style single whip

An ancient Chinese martial art based upon the theories of Taoism, Tai Chi (also spelt Taijiquan) is famous for its
slow moving, dance like, hand form, and its many health benefits.

 

Recently its martial aspect is being rediscovered; the martial art of the Imperial Guards of China had to be effective,
yet a famous modern Karate master and student of Tai Chi stated that “only supermen can fight with Tai Chi”.
  This
perceived difficulty is due to Tai Chi Chuan’s basis on Taoist philosophy, which requires that the practitioner
concentrate on achieving the state of
Sung and receives the opponent’s attacks without resistance (Yin) until the
advantage can be seized (Yang).

 

Sung is a state of prepared relaxation in which the mind and body are relaxed and calm, yet alert and ready for
action. This state of calm preparation, combined with correct bio-mechanical function, in terms of respiration and
body alignment, is why Tai Chi is an effective method of prophylactic health care, capable of improving many
conditions.

 

Today, many people all over the world practice Tai Chi for relaxation and health improvement,  there is a growing
international competition scene with Tai Chi exponents competing in either full contact (San Shou) where the winner
 is frequently decided by a knockout, or the gymnastic performance of demanding Tai Chi hand and weapon forms
(Tao Lu) and the two person contest of pushing hands (Tui Shou) where competitors try to upset the balance of their
 opponent, whilst maintaining their own mental and physical equilibrium.
