Participation will assume that you have cleared the class with your Doctor. Do not do any exercise that causes discomfort or pain. Stop exercise immediately if you feel light-headed or dizzy. Do not come to class with an acute illness. What is T'ai-chi ch'uan? T'ai-chi ch'uan, also spelled taijiquan, was developed as a martial art and longevity exercise between 700 and 300 years ago. It still is taught as both a martial art and longevity art. As early as the 1930's it was found to have varied and profound health benefits. Today it is primarily practiced as a "Mind-body" and Health Promotion exercise. It is one of the best stress reduction methods. It is a low intensity exercise, low impact, suitable to people of all ages and fitness levels. If you can walk, you can practice tai chi. T'ai-chi is shown to help some people improve balance and just feel better about themselves. People take our t'ai-chi classes to Improve their Health, Reduce Stress, Improve or lower their high blood pressure. Many of our students have told us that their blood pressure is now under control after their first series of t'ai-chi and our O'mei chi kung classes. Very importantly increased balance is reported, even in people of advanced age.

  • Tai Chi Chuan Martial Applications: Advanced Yang Style Tai Chi Chaun Pdf
    FREE TAI CHI CHUAN MARTIAL APPLICATIONS: ADVANCED YANG STYLE TAI CHI CHAUN PDF Jwing-Ming Yang | 364 pages | 05 Nov 1996 | YMAA Publication Center | 9781886969445 | English | Rochdale, United States Tai Chi Chuan Martial Applications: Advanced Yang Style by Jwing-Ming Yang The Yang family first became involved in the study of t'ai chi ch'uan taijiquan in the early 19th century. Yang became a teacher in his own right, and his subsequent expression of t'ai chi ch'uan became known as the Yang-style, and directly led to the development of other three major styles of t'ai chi ch'uan see below. Yang Luchan and some would say the art of t'ai chi ch'uan, in general came to prominence as a result of his being hired by the Chinese Imperial family to teach t'ai chi ch'uan to the elite Palace Battalion of the Imperial Guards ina position he held until his death. Yang Jianhou the third son Yang Chien-hou Jianhou — passed on the middle frame long form, sometimes called the 2nd generation Yang form or the Yang Jian hou form to his disciples who still pass on this more martial form that is when seen more reminiscent of Chen style for which it is closer to in time as well as form than the Yang Cheng fu form or 3rd generation styles. Thus, Yang Chengfu is largely responsible for standardizing and popularizing the Yang-style t'ai chi ch'uan widely practised today. Yang Chengfu developed his own shortened "large frame" version of the Yang long Form, in order to make it easier to teach to modern students who are busy with modern life.

  • Taijiquan Classics Translation by Jou, Tsung Hwa
    Compiled by Lao Ma Black Bamboo Pavilion Magic Tortoise Taijiquan School OCTOBER 2002 Taijiquan Classics Translation by Jou, Tsung Hwa FOREWORD This compilation of the three major Taijiquan Classics is the joint-effort of my senior students, Richard Kovarik, Zhao Jinxiu, Cheryl Lynn, and Selden Lamoureux. It includes the works of Zhang Sanfeng, Wang Zongyue, and Wu Yuxiang, and an accompanying comparison of eight Taijiquan Lun translations. It is designed as a compact reference workbook to encourage and assist the more serious and dedicated taijiquan student to consult the Taijiquan Classics. In addition, and more importantly to me, it gives access to a Chinese dictionary in self-search of a deeper, more illuminating understanding of the principles and practices underlining the foundation of our art, as expressed in the original Chinese of these seminal writings. In my study of taijiquan, beginning in 1971, the pairing of form training and Taiji Classics reading began simultaneously, first through the influence of the Cheng Man- Ch’ing school, then by the teachings of T.T. Liang, and finally by the personal instruction and example of Jou Tsung Hwa. The full importance of the understanding and use of this literature was indelibly impressed upon me in the Hubei Province folk school of Ding Hongkui, which I attended 1985-88. Ding YeYe, and all my other teachers during this sojourn, used and quoted daily from the Classics as though the writings were a contemporary guidebook. For those readers outside the MagicTortoise Taijiquan Jia who come across this workbook, Jou Tsung Hwa, 1917-1998, is the mentor, guide, and spiritual inspiration of our school, and, his book, The Dao of Taijiquan: The Way to Rejuvenation, is the source of the Classics translation of this work.
