An overview of tai chi

Tai Chi
  Taijiquan originated in China, its Gangrouxiangji action, not only self-defense art of attack and defense, and enhance health, disease prevention and treatment of traditional Chinese boxing. Taijiquan has a long history of service times the amount of school-style provoke a dispute view of the many children, spread widely and deeply loved people. 

  Tai chi on the origin and spread of many anecdotal things found only in the history of Chinese boxing family challenged myself. 

  1929 Yangzhou Jin-ming's "32 changquan potential," said: "Born Wudang martial arts, Shaolin well as in poultry." Hua doctors of the Three Kingdoms period, to imitate the bear, tiger, monkey, deer, birds in five Animal movements, combined with the spread of non-health campaigns, Creating a "Five-Bird Game", Hua was known as the ancestor of Chinese boxing mountains. 

  Since then, for the development of Chinese boxing in the two outside: Out is for the Dharma Master of Shaolin ancestors were, in order to Master is the ancestral home of Wu. 

  Mountain States division of the text into a series of "tai chi sword Detailed driving the trend," a book, On the Origin of tai chi have in mind: "Master Yi was born in Liaodong state, is Qi Chi, thousands of miles to visit Japan, in the early Hongwu, Shu-shan to Daiwa religious, 27 years into the Mount Wudang in Hubei chanting. Day, a magpie bird Jihu in hospital, Zhang Wen, the Chinese see the window from a tree sparrow, as its head, the ground floor of a pennant Hydra, its head looking up, two-fight, not only for a very long time, when birds fly up and down when they hit Hydra, a snake is winding Yaoshou avoid light, was not hit, Chang Wu-tai chi to this static system Move Yiroukegang truth. " 

  Tai Chi was originally called changquan, 13 potential, then according to Wang Zongyue "Book of Changes" yin-yang dynamic of the reason for their tai chi. Because the potential for tai chi exercise, keeping it natural, something out of nothing, the so-called non-polar and also Tai Chi. 

  Although the tai chi routines, driving style and ability in areas such as pneumatic different factions, but are sparse as active, to reconcile the blood, entrails nutrition, the effectiveness of bone-gluten. Tai Chi Chuan as one of the Chinese boxing, had earlier referred to as "Chang" and "Fist cotton," "potential Thirteen" and "soft hands." Years to the Qing Dynasty Emperor Qianlong (1736 AD-1795), Shanxi, Wang Zongyue martial arts family "shadow boxing" before deciding on the name of Tai Chi Chuan. "Tai Chi" source "copulative Book of Changes", with high, extremely, absolutely, the only meaning. 

  Between heaven and earth, on top of the world, and all things to chance, not to change all the time. Flowers, trees, mountains and up the house, appears to be static, all in the gradually aging. As the saying goes, only "change" is to remain unchanged. Taijiquan is to changes in the boxing out drills. Opening-closing movement, the speed of rigid, or so up and down, winding good or bad times, flickering, the actual situation is virtual, constantly continuous, a whole body, there is no action was fixed, when significant momentum with plenty, when hidden away in order to bring Italy, Melting point in the body, intended to continue to be strong off and then start gently, could he. I read a meaning, every move, arbitrary, self-control in order to achieve health, the effect of self-defense, and that is Tai Chi Chuan. Recently, Fujian Province in China and Nam Tai Chi to become self-sufficient based on the [Cape Road, boxing].
