2nd round the guy wearing white shirt. If u pay attention to him u can see that he totally relax his body to listen to his opponent n attacks right before his opponent tries to attack. thats taichi skill there. thanks for posting
skytte71, are you in the white team that defeat opponents in this video. You're right, actually, I haven't seen the competition Tuishou before. About your Master is the direct decendant of GM Tung Ying Chieh, right? GM Tung Ying Chieh is very well known in Thailand. Anyway, nice to know you.
@anhkhoinguyen i agree 100% I have trained Judo, and Tai chi, and while i find that the techniques, for the most part are different. Some/many techniques are also similar. When you compare the principles, they are much more similar/alike.: keeping a low gravity, and a good balanced center, and reversing the opponents force against themselves.
@Thailearner #LOL sorry, i misunderstood you, about "the white". i thought you meant my skin colour, but instead you meant the white t-shirt. No i have nothing to do with this video :-) Yes, GM Tung Ying Chieh. ;-) I have done competition tuishou before, and the rules here in Denmark looks very similar to the rules in this video. I agree with you, that this kind of tuishou in some aspects could look like judo. But if you look closely, you can see taiji techniques and principles being used. Peace
What an incredible video! That one guy in the black and white is dominating until the Chen Style dude at the end takes him out, it shows that even the best have somebody who's above them. Very cool!
Just doubt that if the white fight like this when he face with the opponent who more weight than him, how he can beat with small force and leverage other? I didn't see any thing that comply with Tai ji principle! It's just face to face, and why it needs to limit the weight of two fighters? If it need to have such limitation and fighting like this, it's not the real Taiji!
@Thailearner I guess you must refer to me. And if you're being ironic about the less experience. Then let me tell you that you may have experience on practising Taiji and doing friendly tuishou. But my guess is that you have none practical experience with competition tuishou. Because then you would see what i, and others see! Denmark. My master was Tung Kai Ying, his father was Tung Hu Ling who was a famous tuishou practioner. You have a subscriber who uses the picture of Tung Hu Ling, as avatar
@Thailearner I'f you can't see it. Then maybe you don't want to see it, or don't know how to see it. Or aren't ready to see it... Its obviously that these fights has very good Tai chi elements in it, and yes there are plenty Tai Chi principles being used!
If that's the case then I'm sure that school got a batch of new students that day! That's the best way to determine who's really got it, put it to the test!
Good skill. However I find it extremely unsportsmanlike that he lost on purpose in the final match! I know, in China, this is the way things are done, when you meet a teammate. But if they had acted like that here in Europe, both players would have been DQed, and the gold medal given to the second runner-up!
this is why i like chen style you will get knocked down if you cant fight. good skill here, thanks for the video please post more of this quality. a chen Fan.!
No kung Fu! Just brute force and some wrestling techniques. With such skill levels, they can beat regular taichi practitioners, but they won't be able to advance to the level of Olympic wrestling or even regional tournaments.
As a Chinese,I have to tell you that this is not real TaiChi!!! Absolutely not! I've learned TaiChi for 10 years and I know what TaiChi is.This is wrestling!
@@Gieszkanneif it was force against force, we would see a struggle where he tried to apply a move but it was resisted by the opponent’s strength. Instead, we saw him relax until the moment he applied his move, which worked every time because the opponent was not in a position to be able to resist.
He's correct, somewhat. It's a really restricted form of tai chi, encapsulated and stripped down for competition use. And it really depends on the practitioner, one cannot say one is > than the other.
