When the majority of people think of tai chi, they think of it as a slow moving exercise done for leisure or as a type of moving meditation. Though it is being taught for those applications, it's really a traditional form of martial art. The initial name for this martial art form is Tai Chi Chuan which is translated to English as &quot;supreme ultimate fist.&quot; The name suggests that Tai Chi was at first intended as a martial art style and not an exercise for senior citizens.<br />
<br />
Since tai chi is slow moving, folks think that tai chi is not a martial art style. Other fighting methods including kung fu and karate have fast and powerful movements. Whenever you watch tai chi being carried out, it appears like the same moves in other fighting methods but in slow motion. It doesn't mean, though, that the same movements cannot also be done rapidly. But by doing it gradually, you need to be more controlled in your movements thus being more accurate. To really learn how to apply tai chi as a martial art, you'd have to practice it at different speeds, but moving at a low speed gives you greater coordination and balance.

Push hands is one of the traditional tai chi techniques. In push hands, two individuals face one another and push against each other with their hands and make an attempt to get the other person off balance. You'll find competitions where this is practiced, just like sparring matches in karate. The idea with tai chi push hands is to make use of as little force as you can. Using the weight and strength of the opponent and not yourself, you try to take them off balance. This usually takes lots of practice, naturally, but a master at tai chi push hands can be a powerful martial artist. The most effective way to practice push hands is to attend a tai chi school or get a qualified trainer. It takes more than doing tai chi form if you wish to become excellent in martial arts.<br />
<br />
In case you are interested in learning tai chi as a martial art, then you need to find a school or instructor that has this focus. Though practicing the tai chi form that is usually taught is excellent for your health, and may help you to lower stress, it will only give you some simple martial arts training. You'll develop balance and flexibility by learning the form but you won't know how to apply it in a real situation if you had to. If your area doesn't offer tai chi as a martial art, you can invest in instructional books or videos on the subject. Checkout this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORVKiwCmoMw.<br />

Tai chi is widely known as an internal martial art style, instead of external martial arts like karate. Tai chi martial artists don't just practice push hands, but they also learn to use swords and other traditional Chinese weapons. Tai chi is a very good form of physical exercise but it is also a fantastic form of martial art.</div>AlcarazClick64
