(4) Purpose of Sword Fingers | Tai Chi Sword Basics (#Taijijian #TaiChiSword)

 


 
This is the 4th video in a series where I explain the basics of Tai Chi Straight Sword (Taijijian) training. In this video I discuss the main purpose for holding the Sword Fingers hand posture with your empty hand while practicing Tai Chi Straight Sword forms. There are a lot of different beliefs out there about why the Sword Fingers hand posture exists and several of those are discussed in this video also. If this video was helpful for you, leave a Super Thanks.

World Tai Chi & Qi Gong Day 2023

at the Ames Free Library - Easton, MA

 


Welcome to the Easton Martial Arts Center channel. In this video 
I am mostly off camera leading a group of awesome people who 
came out for World Tai Chi and Qi Gong Day 2023. This is the 8th year celebrating this event at The Ames Free Library in North Easton, Massachusetts. It was a beautiful, cloudy morning. We all met up, had a light warm-up, practiced Tang Bom, and then performed the 24 Posture Yang Style Tai Chi (Taiji) Chuan set. We finished up the morning with Qi Gong (qigong) and a Gratitude Meditation. 
I hope everyone had a good time!

Difference Between Qigong and Tai Chi

 

 
I am constantly asked by people, "What is Qigong?". I often start by asking them if they have ever heard of Taiji (Tai Chi). If they have then I can use their level of understanding of Tai Chi to explain what Qigong is.
