Taiji pushing hands Beijing 1985 

Pushing hands are applications of TaiChi boxing. It’s great to watch a senior practicing with several young guys whom were at unbalanced postures in motion. 🙏

This might be the only video of these masters. Great to learn from. I see that these masters are generally quite particular and knowledgable about their techniques.

These are lovely! The section starting around 13:00 is exceptional!

I find it educational to watch them from the waist down. The superior practitioners seem better rooted.

Interesting video made by my teacher - thanks for posting

The overall quality of push hands in this video is fairly low. Lots of shoving and grabbing. But, I would still love to have been there. It must have been so great to wander through the parks and watch people practice. Such a different time.

always good to have different forms to practice

Theme here is ting and song

4:25 single leg takedown

Is there any more information on that Chang form ?

Not sure if the student is demonstrating or is just stiff. It would be nicer for all students to be able to observe nice follow energy. Like water.

物質不豐富的那段歳月，人們不墮落借運動來充實生活，値得今人深省…。

cool

Are you kidding me?

“假大师”们，像这位先生一样，波坏了传统武术的声誉。
