Book Synopsis Foundations of Chen Family Taijiquan by : Chen Bing
Download or read book Foundations of Chen Family Taijiquan written by Chen Bing and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-29 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Achieving the ideal balance between Yin (softness) and Yang (hardness) is a fundamental goal in the art of Taijiquan, enabling a return to the natural state of the practitioner's body and mind. Hardness is easy to practice, but softness is difficult to develop. Only through softness, however, can true hardness be found, and with it true power. The exercises which form the core of this book were developed over the last few years by Master Chen Bing, and they focus on the Yin aspect of Taiji, on softness and relaxation. Through diligent practice of these exercises, practitioners will develop an authentic Taiji practice and come to embody the essence of the art. In addition to these core exercises, Master Chen also sheds light on other fundamental Taiji practices, including Zhan Zhuang, Stepping, Reeling Silk, Fajin, and his short form "Chen style Taiji Harmony 13 Form", and guides the reader through some historical and theoretical aspects of Taijiquan. The book will serve as a perfect reference for all students and teachers of Taiji, particularly those in schools which follow Master Chen's teaching methods. Not only for those just starting on their Taiji journey, the book will also help all practitioners experienced enough to understand the need to focus on the most fundamental source of Taiji power - relaxation.

This methodology renders Yang Chengfu's direct, hands-on teaching of the art with such immediacy and liveliness that the reader experiences the master’s teaching much as his students did. This English translation finally makes Yang Chengfu's classic work available to taijiquan enthusiasts in the West. It includes notes and commentary that clarify the author's frequent classical and literary turns of phrase and elucidate the philosophical and political underpinnings that shape the text. The translator investigates and compares several early taijiquan books in order to help explain the roles played by two of Yang Chengfu's students, Dong Yingjie and Zheng Manqing, in bringing Yang Chengfu's words and teachings into print. Serious students of taijiquan, and those wishing to deepen their knowledge of taijiquan history and theory, will find this seminal work indispensable to their study and practice.
