Right on but a bit off i

by Chen Zhonghua Taiji Academy on 2021/11/19

Right on but a bit off. Right on is the position of collision. No right on (a bit off) is the position of collapse. In between, there is a tender spot.

One Kua-Chen Zhonghua Online Lesson 20210915 i

by Chen Zhonghua Taiji Academy on 2021/09/17

OneKua-CZHOnline20210915

One of the actions of taiji is to scoop/carve. It is like when you use a spoon to pick up soft/jello-like yogurt. You can put the spoon on the surface and rotate under it to pick up what the spoon can hold. By tossing it in the yogurt will on disturb and destroy the yogurt.

A static version of this is a half-pipe/concave circle. When an object hits it, the object will travel on it and return.

In this video clip, Master Chen Zhonghua shows how to lock the rear kua as the stable support while moving the front kua. This will create a trajectory that will return the opponent’s oncoming force.

This is where I used to work in Jinan in 1983. It was the second best place (in terms of living conditions) in Jinan at the time. Of course back then it was cleaned up and had lights, so looked much better.

I am showing this to show how much China has changed.

Thanks to Paul Janssens for videotaping this with me in 2010 on our visit to GM Li Enjiu.

实用拳法走进阳朔实验小学20210601

Yangsuo (Guilin) Practical Method is set to debut at the local Elementary School on June 1st, 2021! This is a video of the students rehearsing for the public ceremony on June 1st.

Chen Zhonghua:
When I grew up in China in the 1960s, Wushu (Chinese Martial Arts including Taiji) was an everyday, every person activity, much like hockey for Canada and Baseball for the USA.

Unfortunately that was lost later on. Today, together with many other like-minded martial artists, I endeavor in putting the art back into the lives of people in China, starting with school children.

Some Daqingshan Students Hiked Up Yongcuixia on May 30, 2021 i

by Chen Zhonghua Taiji Academy on 2021/05/30

Some of the Daqingshan Full time students hiked up Yongcuixia on May 30, 2021. This is a 6 km hike on Daqingshan. It is the most difficult hike. It traverses 5 mountains and most of the hike is steep. The narrow paths and steps are mostly overgrown with various vines in the summer and covered with snow in the winter.

This hike shows you the true “nature” of Daqingshan.

This is the Peacock sanctuarary in the Sabo Park in the main tourist area of Daqingshan. It is also the end of the Yongcuixia Hike, returning to the Taiji school.
