What is water-based Tai Chi?
Water-based Tai Chi is also known as
Wang's Water-based Tai Chi.The Wang family respects the meaning of Wang Zongyue's "Taijiquan Theory", and the teacher Wang Zhuanghong happens to be named Wang, so he named it.
There are not many people practicing water-based Taijiquan at present, and its most important feature is that it advocates not using force.
Use the weight and the buoyancy converted from the weight and the diffusion energy generated between the ups and downs.
Use your own weight to draw or show the opponent's strength, follow the opponent's force, and use the intention to sink to one side to make it fall into the air.
In appearance, Taijiquan is also called Changquan.
In boxing theory, it is said that "those who have long fists are like the Yangtze River and the sea (river), and they are endless." into water.
This is also the meaning of the author's teacher, Mr. Wang Zhuanghong, naming his Taijiquan as water-based Taijiquan.
Water must be shaped like water, and move with the situation. Every move and style must realize the requirement of turning the rigid body and the solid into a fluid. This process is the most painful and takes the longest.
Found the practice when first meeting Bryon, quite interesting as the movements seemed very unusual from other taiji styles.
