In Taijiquan, we use power. What distinguishes Taiji power from other systems is the use of indirect power. In this mini lesson, Shifu Chen Zhonghua teaches the physical requirements to achieve indirect power. Important concepts such as not moving, locking the contact point, and rotating somewhere else in the Taiji physical structure are demonstrated and explained clearly. An example is also shown with the Taiji hand techniques of Lu. The Taiji concept of Zhou (sticking) is explained in clear language and the physical requirements to achieve Zhou. Another excellent mini lesson by Shifu Chen Zhonghua. Highly recommend purchasing this video mini-lesson.
