What is Taiji Fan

Taiji Fan is a traditional instrument in Taijiquan, which, like Taiji Sword and Taiji Knife, is an extension and development of Taijiquan. Taiji fan originated in the Ming Dynasty period, initially used as a tool for shading the sun and avoiding the summer heat, and then gradually evolved into a martial arts instrument.

Taiji fans are usually shaped like an iron frame with a fan bone and a fan surface made of satin or other lightweight materials. The size and weight of Taiji fan are very delicate, and it is moderate in size and light in weight, which makes it easy to operate and practice. The color of the fan is also very delicate, mostly red or black, with the unique symbols and decorative patterns of Taijiquan.

The practice of Taiji Fan is similar to that of Taijiquan, which requires attention to the coordination of breathing, movement and mind. The practice of Taiji Fan can improve the body's flexibility, balance, coordination and endurance, etc., which is good for health. At the same time, Taiji Fan is also an art form with high appreciation value.
