Applied Tai Chi Chuan Description

This edition of this authoritative book not only presents the art of tai chi chuan in its holistic entirety, but also addresses the controversy over the historical development of what is arguably the most practised style in the West, Cheng Man Ching's tai chi chuan

'On the back' of Applied Tai Chi Chuan

This authoritative book achieves an important breakthrough in tai chi chuan literature by establishing the art as martial in origin and in practice. It also strikes an excellent balance between describing basic concepts, such as the root, jing and time, and translating them into training skills and combat applications.
With chapters on lessons of the form, pushing hands, san shou, weapons, internal power and discipline, it fully addresses tai chi chuan's connections with health, psychology, spirituality and morality.

Nigel Sutton communicates the system with a depth of understanding that stems from intensive study since the age of thirteen of Oriental martial arts, including Baguazhang, Xingyiquan, Taijiquan and Meihuaquan. He has been accepted as an 'inside door' disciple of Master Gao Zi Ying of Beijing, Master Tan Ching Ngee of Singapore and Master Tan Swoh Teng of Malaysia, such marks of respect being a rare honour indeed for a European.

As well as having captained the 1986 Great Britain *Wushu (Chinese martial arts) team and winning gold and bronze medals in the world championships that year, he has also served as an instructor and referee both in Britain and in the Far East.

Courier Tracked - Order before 1pm, we can pack and post the same day to be with you the next working day, this is not a weekend service. It is fully tracked and we will send you the tracking number when we process your order.

Evri - In our experience an extremely slow service, we cannot guarantee it will arrive. It isn't an option on the website for good reason, so if you want this pitiful service and your parcel thrown into a random hedge near your house, if you're lucky, just to save about £2 then simply call us on 0117 942 5832 and we can process your order over the phone.
