Wu
Style Tai Chi Tuishou and Adhesive
Rod (Cudgel)
Tai Chi
Tuishou (pushing hands) is a
fundamental component of Tai Chi
training, involving two
partners. It has two purposes,
one is for further training for
sparring the other is for
health preservation. It can be
later on a specialization for
the practitioner who will deepen
his knowledge in Tai Chi but
also acquire a greater control
of his balance. Tai Chi pushing
is a method , where the
practitioner learns to manage
distance between him and his
partner, sticking to his hands,
combining harmoniously upper and
lower limbs. It is also an
efficient way to improve your
perception of your opponent's
incoming power and to learn how
to manage his incoming power.
Adhesive rod
(Cudgel) is a traditional weapon
of Chinese Martial Arts
generally speaking beyond the
sphere of Tai Chi Chuan. It has
been cherished by kungfu experts
for its specific training in
increasing strength and
precision of movements. In
addition the training of
adhesive rod should also include
two partners training which
gains the name of "adhesive rod"
where the main principle is to
"stick" to your partner cudgel.
