Are you interested in Tai Chi, but you've never been exposed to it and don't know how to start practicing it?
First of all, I would like to say that no matter what age you are, self-learning Tai Chi is a very good idea. Tai Chi is not an "aerobics" for the elderly, it can not only bring you physical benefits, but also allow you to find mental peace.
So how do you get started without anyone to guide you?
The Internet is now so developed, in fact, it is easy to find a large number of Tai Chi teaching resources, whether it is books or **. The problem isWhat kind of routines to choose, and which teacher to choose to learn? You must know that Taijiquan is currently divided into many schools, and Chen Yangwu and Wu Sun are the main ones. I myself practice the Chen style, so I mainly talk about the Chen style routines. It is recommended that beginners find the zero-based Tai Chi series on my homepage, and after mastering some basic skills, they can start learning from the Eight Styles of Health Maintenance, and then gradually transition to the 24 Styles, and then slowly learn other routines after mastering them.
Next, I will take a look at a few issues that need to be paid attention to during the exercise.
When starting the practice, remember one of the most important principles of Tai Chi: relaxation. Keep your body relaxed with every movement and avoid stiffness and overexertion. This will not only avoid injury, but also better appreciate the essence of Tai Chi.
Next, pay attention to your breathing. Tai Chi breathing should be natural and deep, in harmony with the movements. This breathing will not only help you relax, but also improve the quality of your movements.
Of course, self-learning Tai Chi requires patience and time. You may find some movements difficult to grasp at first, or your body is not coordinated enough. Don't be discouraged, keep practicing, and you'll feel your progress gradually. In this process, the most important thing is to enjoy the process of learning and practicing, and experience the physical and mental pleasure brought by Tai Chi.
Also, although any information you want to know about can now be found online, this information is fragmented and unsystematic. Therefore, I highly recommend that you buy a paywall to learn. This has two advantages: first, it saves a lot of search time and saves your time cost; Second, in this way, you can learn systematically and avoid detours.
Finally, I hope that everyone can get a good body through Tai Chi. List of high-quality authors
