Can Tai Ji Chuan really fight?

It's a pity that people who practice Tai Ji Chuan may not be able to actually fight. See how you practice. Tai Ji Chuan is a very difficult fist to learn. People who learn boxing should have "understanding", otherwise they can't learn. "The first teacher refused to make a false biography, and he did not choose others alone, and he was afraid of wasting his time."

Tai Ji Chuan, as an outstanding boxing in family heirloom, has practical significance different from that in family heirloom. The external fist emphasizes "strength" and the internal fist emphasizes "strength"; The external fist emphasizes "moving" and the internal fist emphasizes "doing". Taiji Biography says that "from maturity, you gradually realize your knowledge, and from knowledge, you can reach God". Master Yang Chengfu once said, "There is no certain way for Tai Ji Chuan to improvise. If you can listen, you will know a hundred things; If you don't listen, even if you know many methods, you can't use them well. " It can be seen that Tai Ji Chuan's actual combat significance is mainly embodied in "strength", that is, he should be able to "listen to strength" and "understand strength", and the premise of "listen to strength" and "understand strength" is "familiarity". The key to maturity is to "push hands" with your heart. But "pushing hands" is a difficult thing. Master Sun Lutang said that "one and a half years can be given to the body", and martial arts wizards like Master Sun Lutang need "one and a half years" to be initially practical, not to mention ordinary people who basically "don't go out for ten years". Tai Chi master Yang Luchan visited Chenjiagou three times that year, which shows that it is not easy.

Therefore, it's not that Tai Chi Chuan can't be played, but that it's too difficult. In the past, Tai Chi family heirlooms wanted to choose people to preach, and they chose "savvy"; At present, the "family" of Taiji Chuan also chooses people to tell stories, and they choose money. If it is not passed from person to person, the effect can be imagined.
