Just received this Taiji video this morning.
Looks like Liang Yi Quan.
I am starting to think that an effort to highlight technique
or add technique may end in the realization that Liang Yi was the result all along.
Why has Tai Chi Push Hands gone in higher form to wrestling with supposedly Tai Chi principles followed?
Why has it not developed at the highest level to -
Use of only Tai Chi technique? With - of course - points awarded for use of principles. Points lost for lack of
technique.
If the argument becomes - that all the wrestling / kicks /
punches were already in the Tai Chi then the requirement
will serve to take away the veil by challenging the wrestling to ID the specific technique used.
Example - in boxing the clinch is broken up by the ref.
Once the push hands becomes grappling or force against force have the ref break it up.
