Xing Yi VS Bagua VS Tai Chi

 

One of the key distinctions between the internal arts is that Xing Yi fortifies the center, Bagua moves the center and Tai Chi dissolves the center. Of course these principles go way beyond what is shown here.

Strong Man vs Tai Chi: Using Tai Chi to Overcome Strength; A Secret Revealed

 

 

In this video, Susan Thompson Tai Chi, picks a person she does 
not know who has considerable size and strength advantage and experiments to see if she can move him from his base when he 
resists. She demonstrates using the Tai Chi principle of connecting 
to the opponents fascia. Watch as Susan not only demonstrates success, but also teaches the technique in a short amount of time 
to someone not indoctrinated to Tai Chi. 
 
Many thanks to Phoenix Mountain Tai Chi, Chester Lin for bringing together my skills and sharing his knowledge generously. Also to my late Master, Master William Ting for teaching me internal principles 
of Tai Chi.

Taijijian 32 – Tai Chi Sword 32 Back View

 

I recorded this in February 2019 during a stinking hot summer, as evidenced by the crispy brown grass. It was 8.30 in the morning and already 30+ degrees C under a cloudless sky, which made it very difficult to look to the east. 
 
For the text showing which directions to face and direct the sword, I used an excellent book as reference:
 
 Taiji Jian 32-Posture Sword Form by James Drewe
 
Also, I didn't realise when I started that it was a dog park... 
...I discovered that along the way!

Wudang Tai Chi 28 Group Performance - Wudang Taiji 28 - 武当太极拳二十八

 


This form is taught and performed in China at Master Yuan Xiu Gang's school, the Wudang Daoist Traditional Kungfu Academy. Wudang Tai Chi (taiji) is one of the oldest and most original forms of Tai Chi from the original roots of the style. This is The San Feng Pai variation of the Wudang Taiji 28 form. It is a subset of the original San Feng Pai Wudang Taiji 108 form. It is said that this is a direct descendant of the Tai Chi originated by Zhang San Feng 張三丰 in the Song Dynasty in approximately 1200 AD. He is thus the originator of the concept of "Internal Martial Arts".

Tai Chi Not a REAL Martial Art:

You're Thinking About it Wrong

 

Tai Chi (Taijiquan) is often dismissed as an not an effective martial art in the mixed martial arts and modern sports combat circles. I give my argument why in today's modern society where you are engaged in conflict situations daily and cannot win your arguments by knocking out or submitting your opponent, the martial art philosophies of Tai Chi are the most effective in navigating your life's conflicts.

Yáng Shǒuzhōng Yang, Sau Chung (1910-1985), was the eldest son of Grandmaster Yang Cheng Fu. He started learning his family style when he was 8 years old under the strict supervision of his father. At 14, he started to assist his father in teaching Tai chi chuan. By the age of 19, he was travelling throughout China with his father to assist in teaching Tai chi. 
 
In truth, many people who have claimed to learned from Yang, Cheng Fu actually learned from Yang, Sau Chung. In 1949, he moved to Hong Kong, and he taught privately at his home until his death in 1985. His dedication to Yang Family Tai Chi Chuan was as equally committed as his father, grandfather Yang Chien Hou, and his great grandfather Yang Lu Chan; and, as a result, he achieved one of the highest levels. Yang Sau Chung passed on the family transmission to his First Disciple, Ip Tai Tak, (1958) and his three daughters, Amy - Tai Yee, Mary - Ma Lee and Agnes -- Yee-Li. He also accepted two other Disciples - Chu Gin Soon (1977) and Chu King Hung (1983).
 
Master Ip Tai Tak was taught the Yang Family's System (now it's called Snake System) and became Master Yang's practice partner for the next 28 years. Ip Tai Tak has two Disciples, John Ding and Bao Tak Fai (Robert Boyd).

John Bracy demos and explains internal power striking for the internal martial arts. This type of FA JIN is not a push or "bounce back." The strike releases internal energy into the opponent's body. As shown in the video, Bruce Lee was a master of the first kind of internal power - that based on "vertical alignment" and instant weight transfer from the back to the front leg (vertical spring power). 
 
 Briefly introduced here and described on our website: 
 
 
The second type of power is based on Taoist yogic principles that trigger bio-electric fields in and around the body. This allows for "disruptive information" to merge with technique that can for a split second weaken the opponent. It is the best explanation so far to explain the uncanny abilities of the most famous "light touch" masters such as Morihei Ueshiba, Wang Xiangzhai, Yang Chen-fu, and others.
