  • Congratulations to Wudang San Feng Pai!
    LIFE / HEALTH & FITNESS / FITNESS & EXERCISE Congratulations to Wudang San Feng Pai! February 11, 2013 8:35 PM MST View all 5 photos Master Zhou Xuan Yun (left) presented Dr. Ming Poon (right) Wudang San Feng Pai related material for a permanent display at the Library of Congress. Zhou Xuan Yun On Feb. 1, 2013, the Library of Congress of the United States hosted an event to receive Wudang San Feng Pai. This event included a speech by Taoist (Daoist) priest and Wudang San Feng Pai Master Zhou Xuan Yun and the presentation of important Wudang historical documents and artifacts for a permanent display at the Library. Wudang Wellness Re-established in recent decades, Wudang San Feng Pai is an organization in China, which researches, preserves, teaches and promotes Wudang Kung Fu, which was said originally created by the 13th century Taoist Monk Zhang San Feng. Some believe that Zhang San Feng created Tai Chi (Taiji) Chuan (boxing) by observing the fight between a crane and a snake. Zhang was a hermit and lived in the Wudang Mountains to develop his profound philosophy on Taoism (Daoism), internal martial arts and internal alchemy. The Wudang Mountains are the mecca of Taoism and its temples are protected as one of 730 registered World Heritage sites of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). Wudang Kung Fu encompasses a wide range of bare-hand forms of Tai Chi, Xingyi and Bagua as well as weapon forms for health and self-defense purposes. Traditionally, it was taught to Taoist priests only. It was prohibited to practice during the Chinese Cultural Revolution (1966- 1976).

  • PUSHING HANDS 2: Perspectives
    TAI CHI PUSHING HANDS. 2 Once you have the skill, you must try it on your enemy – but you must guard against feeling dejected when you lose or complacent when you win. You must constantly consider why you won or lost. Did you lose because you were afraid of your enemy, or because your skill is not deep enough? The Ancestors always said “A person of great skill must also be very brave”. “Canon of Boxing.” (Qi Jiguang) Pushing Hands is based on, and tests the quality of, our Form Practice Pushing Hands practice provides feedback to enable us to assess whether our Form training has developed the correct body mechanism. If our Form is deficient, our weaknesses will soon become apparent when we push hands. Tui shou allows us to test whether our structures and co-ordination are correct or not in a way we could not simply by practising the Form on its own. However, effective Pushing hands skills are nevertheless built on a solid foundation of Form training. Tui shou and Form training are inseparable. Whatever defect a person has in the Form will be revealed during Pushing Hands as a weakness that can be exploited by an opponent. That is why Tai Chi Chuan requires us to have the whole body working in unison. We must practise Tui shou frequently. Tui shou is a practical application and is the only way of accurately testing the Form. Learning Tai Chi Chuan and its postural requirements is like manufacturing the different parts of a machine. Tui shou is like its assembly.
