T'ai Chi Classics

<b>An essential guide for T’ai Chi practitioners of all skill levels—with an overview of basic principles and commentary on three classic internal martial arts texts</b><br>  <br> According to Master Liao, the great power of T’ai Chi cannot be realized without knowing its inner meaning. <i>T’ai Chi Classics</i> presents the inner meaning and techniques of T’ai Chi movements through translations of three core classics of T’ai Chi, often considered the “T’ai Chi Bible”. <br>  <br> Divided into three chapters, the guide explains how to increase inner energy (<i>ch’i</i>), transform it into inner power (<i>jing</i>), and project this inner power outward to repel an opponent without physical contact. Master Liao also provides a description of the entire sequence of T’ai Chi movements, illustrated by his own line drawings. <b>An essential guide for T’ai Chi practitioners of all skill levels—with an overview of basic principles and commentary on three classic internal martial arts texts</b><br>  <br> According to Master Liao, the great power of T’ai Chi cannot be realized without knowing its inner meaning. <i>T’ai Chi Classics</i> presents the inner meaning and techniques of T’ai Chi movements through translations of three core classics of T’ai Chi, often considered the “T’ai Chi Bible”. <br>  <br> Divided into three chapters, the guide explains how to increase inner energy (<i>ch’i</i>), transform it into inner power (<i>jing</i>), and project this inner power outward to repel an opponent without physical contact.
