A truly giant-sized poster with folds out an din its protective card sleeve, the single sided colour chart is decorated with beautiful bamboos and Chinese flowers and lanterns and calligraphic script and gives a lineage chart showing the birth and development of T'ai Chi Ch'uan as it has passed from family to family developing different styles on its journey from the 13th century to today. The main styles are Chen, Yang and Wu and recently Hao; Li and Sun styles are becoming more known in the West. Ch'uan is the use of the martial art as a method to achieve T'ai Chi, or the Supreme Ultimate. This is a way of being in the world, one that is relaxed, aware, centred, strong and free of expectation, anticipation and fight/flight reactions. The Taoist hermit Chang San Seng is said to be the founder who combined elements of boxing, Taoist principles and observations of the natural world to create 13 basic postures. The eight basic movements around the Yin and Yang symbol are shown on this chart, and these movements are: ward-off, rollback, press, push, elbow and shoulder strike, split and pull-down. T'ai Chi is suitable for all ages, and this super wall chart will get you inspired to begin these postures for more energy in a soft and yielding and balancing way. All in colour, very large dimensions, quality glossy paper.
