Tai Chi Silk reeling energy
The term "ç¼ æ³•" (Chán FÇŽ) was proposed by Chen Xin, also known as Chen Xinyi, in his book "Illustrated Explanation of Chen-Style Taijiquan." He stated, "Taijiquan also involves 'Chán FÇŽ' (Entwining Techniques)." He further emphasized, "Without understanding this, one cannot comprehend the essence of the martial art." Chen Xin affirmed the significant position of "Chán FÇŽ" in the Chen-style Taijiquan routines and elaborated on its various forms: "there are 'Jin Chán' (Advancing Entwining), 'Tui Chán' (Retreating Entwining), 'Zuo Chán' (Left Entwining), 'You Chán' (Right Entwining), 'Shang Chán' (Upward Entwining), 'Xia Chán' (Downward Entwining), 'Li Chán' (Inward Entwining), 'Wai Chán' (Outward Entwining), 'Shùn Chán' (Clockwise Entwining), 'Nì Chán' (Counterclockwise Entwining), 'Dà Chán' (Large Entwining), and 'XiÇŽo Chán' (Small Entwining)."
Are traditional martial arts routines useful in actual combat?
       "For the past five thousand years, Chinese martial arts have been renowned for their practical combat effectiveness. However, why do some people deny the practical combat functionality of traditional martial arts today? Why do some individuals directly refer to Chinese traditional martial arts as 'dance arts'? The main reason lies in the increasing theatricalization of martial arts, especially in the past few decades.

Why more you practice Tai Chi, the healthier you become ?
As the saying goes, "After three years of learning boxing, you may lose your skills in just three days." "One day of practice brings one day of progress; ten days without practice result in a hundred days of emptiness." These sayings illustrate the importance of consistent practice in martial arts. Without the determination to practice diligently and view Tai Chi Chuan as a way of health preservation, not just a remedy for illness or a form of physical exercise, individuals are more likely to experience a decline in their skills. Once the skills are lost and various ailments arise, regrets will follow.

Basic principles and training methods of traditional Tai Chi
Traditional Tai Chi Chuan and modern Tai Chi exercises are completely different. Their principles and training methods maintain the unique characteristics of early Tai Chi Chuan. This includes their requirements in practice and application. The training and application of traditional Tai Chi Chuan are primarily based on the principles outlined in the "Tai Chi Chuan Theory." It revolves closely around the traditional principles and techniques, integrating the practice and application of Tai Chi Chuan.

Understand Tai Chi and Circles
In Tai Chi Quan, defense is also an attack, and an attack is also a defense. One cannot apply Tai Chi Quan's methods to attack without being able to use those same methods to defend. Since every movement involves circles, the more profound the skill, the smaller the circles become. Sometimes the movements are imperceptibly circular, encompassing both defense and attack. Therefore, in push hands exercises, one must be attentive to "listening to energy," which means practicing sensitivity and touch to feel the opponent's force. By sensing the direction of the incoming force, one can use half a circle to defend and the other half to attack. This is what is meant by "stickiness" in Tai Chi, which is the same as "adherence" or "following."
