Chen Taijiquan

Recommended Posts

I think it's the original way of Taiji Quan. The foundator is of a family called Chen.The Chen way consists of the 74 mouvements with the body. (Not sward or other)The goal is to meditate while you move. Like yoga, but in movement. Every movement is a fighting-movement, but it is used to meditate, to put all your energy and concentration in it. I'm still at my fifth movement, it's a lot of work to be able to remember all 74.Most of them are bast on animal behaviour and have names like 'jumps like monkey', 'claws of a tiger' or 'trying to catch a bird's tale'. It's beautiful to look at and you feel good when you practice it.
