Download or read book Yang Style Traditional Long Form T'ai Chi Ch'uan written by Gordon Muir and published by Blue Snake Books. This book was released on 2008-05-13 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gordon Muir began his martial arts studies at the age of twelve, followed by years of serious study of a wide variety of disciplines including judo, kyokushinkai, karate, kempo, several kung fu styles, and kickboxing. Eventually he discovered the internal martial arts, which led to t’ai chi and Master T. T. Liang, renowned teacher of Yang style. The culmination of the author’s longtime study of this style is this enlightening look at the Yang style of t’ai chi. Focusing on the revered traditional form rather than the more recently created short form, the book describes in depth the type of movement t’ai chi strives for that distinguishes it from other martial arts. Clear and concise instructions help students understand how to move in order to create internal strength. Numerous photographs and detailed descriptions showcase and simplify the movements, which include the traditional Yang stances, hand and arm positions, and moving and powering. Written in a simple, engaging style, the book is designed to help new students get started in this rewarding tradition and more advanced practitioners deepen their knowledge of it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Martial arts master Yang Chengfu’s seminal work on the techniques and applications of Yang-style taijiquan—now available to Western practitioners for the first time The publication in 1934 of Yang Chengfu's book, The Essence and Applications of Taijiquan (Taijiquan Tiyong Quanshu) marked a milestone in the modern evolution of the art of taijiquan. Using what is best-termed demonstration narrative, the author presents form postures and suggested applications from his own perspective, as he performed them. 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you understand the principles and theory of Tai Chi chuan and its Jings, but do not know the martial techniques, your martial art is still half empty. It is as if you had learned how a car works, but did not know how to drive it. It cannot be denied that understanding the theory will help you to progress faster. However, since every form in the sequence was carefully designed to most efficiently attack and defend, you will also profit greatly from researching the application of each form to discover its potential and why it was designed just so. This volume focuses on the martial applications of the many techniques in the solo Tai Chi sequence, the two person fighting set, and pushing hands. It teaches you how to analyze forms and discover their hidden combat applications, including Chin Na, Downing the enemy, and Cavity strikes. Volume 2 along with Volume 1, opens the door to many of those "hidden secrets" that mar tial artists have coveted for centuries. In this volume, applications for every form in the Tai Chi solo sequence are presented. This will lay the foundation of your knowledge of the martial aspects of Tai Chi Chuan.
