Master Chen, I have a question for you related to the use of the dantian and coccyx. In reading the book “Chen Style Taijiquan Practical Method, Volume One: Theory” which you translated from Hong Junsheng’s writings, it says that the sinking of the qi to the dantian has a lot to do with the actions of the coccyx, and that the coccyx should actually curl up backwards.

Hello everybody,
Recently I made some interesting experience in push hands situations. This year, after my first stay on Daqingshan I did change nearly all my Taiji practice to “Practical Method” (circles and Yilu mostly), simply because I got the feeling that this way to practice is much more intense and “on the point”.
This is the basic foundational exercises for the Hunyuan Taiji System of Grandmaster Feng Zhiqiang. This video by Master Chen Zhonghua contains 48 individual exercises.
