You get paid for <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Python" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Python</a> work in a charity? <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Taijiquan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Taijiquan</a> teacher here, mostly Old Yang Style.

My instructor used to say it was the study of a lifetime, if you were lucky then just the one!

I also have a background in Iaido, Jodo and...This is the first English language reference I have found for Shu-Ha-Ri, and is I believe the link that made it's way into the Agile movement via Alistair Cockburn in the late 90s via nntp and various mailing lists related to software methodology at the time, that I may have inadvertently been a catalyst for.

RaymondPierreL3<a href="https://libranet.de/profile/mikaelodhage" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@mikaelodhage</a> Are you still doing taichi? It’s a great way to keep fit and underrated as a form of mind-body exercise IMO. There is a lot to learn about it besides the number of forms. Does your master identify with a ‘style’ ? <a href="https://aus.social/tags/taichi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#taichi</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/TaiJiQuan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TaiJiQuan</a>

Not🐧A🐧Convicted🐧Felon<a href="https://aus.social/@RaymondPierreL3" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@RaymondPierreL3</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/@paelse" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@paelse</a> The comment "There's nothing Taoist about it" seems really disconnected from the reality I've experienced. Both lineages I've been taught, and the vast majority of what I've read about various different styles of <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Taijiquan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Taijiquan</a> have directly referenced its Taoist origins, and its deep connection and embodiment of Taoist philosophy and principles. Whether this is its origins in Wudang, or the prime component of its name, the Taijitu, or the embodiment of the principles in the form (Wuwei, the three treasures, non-action, Yin/Yang, flow etc.) it's very much an embodiment of Taoism. To say "my style of Taijiquan is Taoist, but yours isn't" seems at best dismissive. I assume you don't mean to offend. Again, not having practiced Moy Lin-Shin's style I can't directly compare. My suspicion is that there is far less distance between his style and traditional Chen and Yang teachings than is being asserted.

The Outlaw Chloe GWhen I’m doing my tai chi on my own, there is no noise, few thoughts, there is only moving my body through space and me noticing how it feels…in my feet, my legs, my back, and my arms. After learning for so long, it isn’t ‘me’ moving my body, the muscles just ‘know’ where to go and what to do. Mostly I concentrate on what my feet are doing. I notice all the little moments of the muscles in my feet. The power in the arms comes from the feet. <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/taichi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#taichi</a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/chen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chen</a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/ChenStyle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ChenStyle</a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/taijiquan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#taijiquan</a>

Peter Skov Larsen ★I wrote a version of the <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Taiji" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Taiji</a> classic Song of the Thirteen Movements. Originally it was written in a tight rhythmic and rhyming pattern which is absent in any translation I have seen. But the pattern is an important point. It was meant to help <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/TaiChi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TaiChi</a> practitioners memorise and understand the basic principles without having to resort to books, and so I tried to recreate it. I hope my version hasn't strayed too far from the original meaning of the words. <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/taijiquan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#taijiquan</a><a href="http://peterstaichi.com/Writings/Taijiquan%20Rhyme.pdf" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">http://peterstaichi.com/Writings/Taijiquan%20Rhyme.pdf</a>

Pedro HerreroEl taijiquan se presta muy bien a las actividades de contacto con la naturaleza.

Lee Fife - old accountI came across these verses attached to the postures in the Tai Chi form. I got them from a Chinese friend and fellow practitioner. Who knows what the real origin is? There are claims that some of them come from Yang Chengfu. In any case, they're pretty interesting and I enjoyed the translation effort.

Lee Fife - old accountMy latest Tai Chi translation: Ye Dami's Essential Points for Practicing. Some interesting stuff in there!

Lee Fife - old accountA little something ...Ye Dami was Cheng Manching's first Tai Chi teacher after he moved to Shanghai. After a couple years, Ye introduced Cheng to Yang Chengfu.I recently ran across a collection of short writings by Ye on Push Hands and just finished translating it. Real interesting how similar it is in most part to what we've been taught. And the differences are also very interesting!For your enjoyment: <a href="https://www.rockymountaintaichi.com/s/Ye-Dami-On-Push-Hands.pdf" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.rockymountaintaichi.com/s/Ye-Dami-On-Push-Hands.pdf</a><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/TaiChi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TaiChi</a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Taijiquan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Taijiquan</a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/PushHands" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PushHands</a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/ChengManching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ChengManching</a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/YeDami" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#YeDami</a>

EduardoIs it Tai Chi, or Taijiquan?Westerners needed to devise a method of transliteration – converting the ideograms to western characters, by way of writing the sounds. Chinese also has a very particular phonetic. Any sillabe can sound in five different tones, and each tone will confer a completely different meaning. Thus yī（一）means “one”, but yì（意） means “wish” or “idea”.When Tai Chi arrived in the west, the most used transliteration system was Wade-Gilles, and it transliterated the ideograms for our art as T’ai chi ch’uan. This is why it is popularly know as Tai Chi. In 1979, the Chinese government officially adopted a new transliteration system, which includes diacritic marks to show the phonetics, called Pinyin. This is the system which writes Tàijíquán. So, we presently refer to our art as Taijiquan.<a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/book" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#book</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#author</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/taijiquan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#taijiquan</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/taichi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#taichi</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/taichichuan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#taichichuan</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/kungfu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kungfu</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/wellness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wellness</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/health" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#health</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/qigong" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#qigong</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/meditation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#meditation</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/ottawa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ottawa</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#canada</a>
