Tai Chi Chuan: Chen Style Tai Chi Techniques of Induce and Capture DVD

Practical Tai Chi Chuan Combat Techniques are important parts of Chinese Wushu, which are very useful in attack and defence. For some reason, the practice of Tai Chi Chuan deviates from the application in real combat, making the practitioner unable to grasp the truth of this art and so many years of hard training results in the inability to apply. The essence of Tai Chi Chuan is the wise use. The change of movements is nothing but the open and close, or advance and withdrawal and victory or defeat is decided in an instant. This program consists of Basic Induce, Technical Induce, Capture and Counter-capture. The first two parts tell us how to turn the wrists, elbows and shoulders and how to defend in different situations, revealing the advanced use of Push Hand of Taji Quan, The techniques include induce, fold, borrow force and parry: In the last part, many examples are used to illustrate the cautions and solutions in combat and the essentials and common characteristics of capture and counter-capture are also explained. Demonstrator/Teacher: Shi Zhan. Literally dozens of China Nah moves all with a Tai Chi flavor. Many classical and basic holds, locks and throws are demonstrated. There are also a number of excellent simple patterns such as elbow controlling to teach the student the method of avoiding being locked. Many of the movements are quite simple but done in a quick-catch and repulse manner. There are also a number of "chains", that is to say a movement, its counter and the counter to that. All Chin Nah relates to the basic energies such as Beng and Cai of Tai Chi training. There is a lot of information on this DVD so the English subtitles can be very helpful.
