Novelty! Principles used in the Tai Chi Yoga

The principle of physical activity

★ (1) 3 Movement principles ★

3 movement is unique to Tai Chi theory. It considers the human body are body tip, middle and root of three points. On the one, the arm for the tip section, as in the festival, legs for the root section.

The three sections in each of three again, arm in: Hand-to shoot section, the elbow of the festival, the shoulder of the root section. His body: Head for the tip section of the lumbar section, hips to the root section. Legs in: feet for the tip section, the knee of the section, hips to the root section.

The purpose of next three sections is to understand and grasp the momentum built up in advance and used. Their tips to "shoot the neck with the root ganglion reminders." Exercise, shoot for the lead, but a source of strength in the root section.

With well-known "Japanese-style worship," beginning of movement as an example. "Mountain-style stand, hands clasped together on the chest." This stand by itself should include a virtual collar top enthusiasm, Hanxiong pull back, gas, Shen Dan Tian, spine vertical, Tail of the various elements within the income account. "Breathing is when the arm upward." Arm moves up how to do? Combination of three fresh law, you should know that, hand-sections for the tip, leading arm upward,But the momentum from the shoulder, ideas on the shoulder, you can know that the shoulder for the arm up the meaning of this action.

But this was not enough, but also note that arm for the tip section, arm strength is up from legs, arms accessible through the body. The intention in the arm before there is a power transmission process, the power is flowing out from the legs.

And then practice continues, after feeling sharp, you can know up to this arm movement, and tai-chi, like any movement, are "its roots in the feet, hair on the legs, dominate at the waist, shaped in the finger."

★ (2) the principle of chest and abdomen folded ★

Asana practice to the spine movement axis. Its purpose, primarily by bending the spine extended, and in line with appropriate breathing outside the band, promoting the clock and around veins Road open. This is mainly reflected in the tai chi in the fold for the thorax and abdomen.

Tai Chi theory suggests that the dry chest and abdomen as-kun, chest and abdomen open and close folding namely yin and yang, opening and closing. At the same time, through the chest and abdomen folded, will make the former governor, after two clock cycles to be communication between the movements. Thorax and abdomen open, theWaist and above, gas up, accessible arms shoulder, elbow, hand; below the waist, gas and downstream, consistent over legs hips, knees, feet. Thorax and abdomen timely, four tip of the pubic region and a stretch consistency gas reversion.

Fold in the chest and abdomen are reflected in a number of yoga asanas. Typically include a cat stretching deformation style Ji Zhu. To do a cat stretch style, the Naishi to the waist axis, making opening and closing of the folding chest and abdomen movement. Breathing, the chest and abdomen on the pull distraction, ideas from the pubic region, scattered to the extremities. Breath, the chest and abdomen in combination, gather ideas from the four shoots go pubic. The opening and closing of breathlessness as a guide, naturally go well.

Thoracoabdominal folding can also be used in the arrangement of asanas. Such as the Cobra style is a simple "open", then "open" after there must be corresponding to the "synergy" to maintain a balance, so, baby-type is used to relax the body just before the lateral stretching over the muscles and spine.

★ (3) symmetry balance principle ★

Symmetrical balance is dialectics, yes I called "Gaoxia by comparison, the length of Aioi." Taiji Ancient Music Scores, said: "There's that is, there is the former that is later, the left that is right.Ruyi be upward, that is blending under the Italian. "(" 13 the total potential that is abbreviated ")

The same is true in the yoga asanas. In short, the left-body complete, we must then do the right, to sway the balance. But this is only the external balance. There is a deeper level of balance, as mentioned above stance, to effectively head hanging, bound Tail gas Shen Dan Tian received, thereby pulling it possible to form the balance of the Omni. Another example is triangular side extension, its power distribution is balanced. Namely, pubic region as the center, the power to spread all around. In particular, such as the left arm extended downward, then there must be a strength of his right arm extended upward. At the same time,Upper left-leaning, head for Italy extended, right leg, right down to overall strength, Zhiguan into the ground, in order to achieve and maintain a balance of about Chiang Kai-shek is not biased.

Many practitioners who falters cause, is the only side of the force noted that, without attention to the other side of the balancing effect.

★ (4) No off without exception and principles ★

Without exception, and from non-excessive "golden mean" was in fact a movement in general principle. Its extension, can be described as exercises appropriate tepid. On the physical protection is concerned,This is very important. Asana practice requirements, action to be done in place, but not too, too much and weaknesses are the same as all the non-correct.

What is meant by "place"? Each person because of congenital conditions, practitioners at different times, "in place" the connotation is different. Even the same person at different hours of practice, such as morning, evening, and if the winter and summer, are also different. Therefore not imposing uniformity.
