Overview

Beginning with an explanation of the theoretical and practical aspects of meditative traditions in the Chinese martial arts, this book teaches how to cultivate the centre point of the body; how to use the static stance, footwork, and body movement; and how to practice with a partner. In discussing the theories, principles, and practices of the Tai Chi Chuan tradition, the author draws primarily from the teaching of Cai Song Fang, who is famous for his push-hand skills. All practitioners of internal martial arts will gain from reading this book.
