As a person who is inheriting Tai Chi in the Eight Classics, a person who has been working on Tai Chi teaching for more than 20 years, is actually very sad and helpless. Silk winding is one of the core techniques of Chen-style Taijiquan, which embodies the philosophy and physical principles of Taijiquan, and is used in "connection" and "transformation".
It refers to a series of continuous, spiral-like movements of the limbs and waist and hips, which mimic the movement of pulling from a cocoon and is characterized by smooth and smooth flow. The purpose of wrapping silk is to integrate the movements of the body into a seamless circular pattern, to dissolve the opponent's movements, and to promotegasFlow in the body.
There are two main types of silk winding strength: yin (involution and reverse rotation) and yang (abduction and positive rotation). Reverse rotation involves inward and contraction movements, with the thumb leading the strength; The positive spinning of the silk strength includes outward and expanding movements, leading the strength with the little finger; The two types complement each other and reflect the principle of yin and yang balance of Tai Chi. If it is further subdivided, it is also divided into one-handed and two-handed. The move of "Huanglong Three Stirring Water" of the old frame second road is a combination of one-handed positive spinning and winding + footwork.
Taijiquan pays attention to a "whole strength", and this concept is actually mentioned repeatedly in my **. The essence of silk winding is how it connects the movements of the body as a unified whole. From the feet to the legs, to the waist, to the arms and fingers, every part of the body is involved in a coordinated effort. This holistic approach ensures that the movement is driven upwards from the ground, driven by the waist and expressed through the limbs.
