Master Ma Hong and the Chen style Tai Chi
Introduction
MasterMa Hong, one of the most famous Tai Chi master in China, is thenineteenth generation of the Chen style Tai Chi. His teacher was ChenDao Kuei, son of Chen Download va - hot dance vol 212 (2011) Fah Ke (the seventeenth generation). Master MaHong believes the Chen style taught by his teacher, Chen Dao Kuei, justthe right combination of hardness and softness and he said, according toTai Chi Yin Yang, Tai Chi must be hard and soft; fast and slow;insubstantial and substantial; open and close. And also it must have Yi,Qi, Li (spirit, breath, strength) and all of these must be combinedtogether in Tai Chi. Master Ma Hong also addressed the relationshipbetween close and open whilst doing Tai Chi. He said entirely open isnot good, and entirely closed is not good either. In addition tobenefiting health, His teacher Chen Dao Kuei taught him not only eachposture, but broke down the function, the martial use of each posturebecause Tai Chi also has its martial worth. I was following Master MaHong to learn Tai Chi for a few years, here I am going to summariseseveral features of the Chen style taught by my teacher and to discusswith other practitioners.
Hardness and Softness
TaiChi is a martial art rather than a sort of soft exercise, so the mostimportant aspect in the Chen style Tai Chi is hardness and softness inclose succession. For instance, a certain movement may look soft, butthere is still force in it, such as Form 3 “ Lazy About Trying Coat, theforce from pushing two hands until the hip level is not a hard strengthonly; it is a soft and flexible strength with penetration. It can beexpanded and contracted, therefore yielding both strength and relaxedsoftness. Only in this way hardness and softness can be performed. Ifall movement are hard (full of strength), it is not Tai Chi movement,reversely, if they are completely soft without hardness, this is notgood either.
In the Chen style, lots of movement seems to besuddenly fast and suddenly slow; suddenly soft and suddenly hard;suddenly disappear and suddenly appear. They, sometimes, look like softwater, and sometimes like hard ice. Furthermore, while the opponentsmovement is becoming soft, yours is getting softer than him; and theopponents movement is hard, yours is getting harder than him. Youropponent cannot see your softness because your softness is inside yourbody, and your opponent also cannot see your hardness because yourhardness is inside too. In this case, the premium goal of the Chen styleTai Chi is whenever you want to use your soft power, you can have it,and whenever you want to use hard strength, you can have it. The Chenstyle is a system which the softness and hardness can be occurred at thesame time.
Spiral-like Twining
With the flexibility ofthe whole body and proper body kinetics, spiral-like twining can becompleted by joints, such as legs, waists, shoulders, elbow, spine, etc.Spiral-like twining is the ways of alternatively extending andwithdrawing, of being tight and loose, and of firm and soft. Even thoughsometimes the person has to strike with the elbow or the forearm, thespiral-like twining power is still there. The principle of that is toextend all the way like a spiral, and then to release it. Because everymovement has its hidden martial meanings, there is nothing that is emptyin the whole forms. To create this sort of spiral-like twining, thewaist is very important because it is the co-ordinator of body movement.And moreover, according to Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Qi comesfrom Diantian (2-3 cm below the umbilicus on the waist), by doing thespiral-like twining, the Qi can be directed by mental exertion to spreadthrough to the whole body. Hence, such practice results in strengthenedoffensive and defensive force of the body and limbs as well asincreased explosiveness of force.
Arc-like Movement
Eachjoint is connected to complete a great range of arc movement in the Chenstyle Tai Chi. The arc movement is help both for propelling the Qicirculation in the main and collateral channels (network) throughout thebody and for transferring the internal power to extremities. On theother hand, the arc movement can also increase the stability becausewhen doing arc-like movement, the body goes along the low curve toenhance stability for a certain step or position. This requires a goodrange of motion and strong muscles on the lower limbs (more pressure onthem). Because some people dont have a great range of motion and weakmuscles on their lower limbs, so when they go low they cannot go anylower. Therefore they cannot conduct the arc-like movement, therefore,their stability are less than those who are going arc-like movement.Arc-like movement makes the whole body have Yin and Yang balance, inother word; it keeps the person in his own centre of gravity all thetime. Only if you have controlled your centre of gravity, you can havethe best body structure, and then you are able to have maximum power toyour opponent.
Opposite Movement
My teacher told me toremember the eight words: open and close, empty and full, spiral andturn, up and down. These words indicate the opposite movement existingin the Chen style. For example, in Form 21 - The Punch at ElbowsBottom, as soon as two hands are going up, the body needs to go down (upand down). In Form 19 - Push Both hands, while pushing hands forwards,the trunk slightly goes backwards (forwards and backwards). Thisopposite movement not only creates opposite force but also keeps thecentre of gravity (balance) in the middle. The Chen style Tai Chiespecially emphasizes this opposite movement. Another example, whenpushing a heavy cart, first you need to pull backwards a bit before youpush it forwards “ opposite power! And when lifting a thing, you need tobend your knees first to yield opposite strength to lift it. So, allmovements in the Chen style always have opposing movement/power insidethe body. Like a tiger, if she is going to chase a prey, she willtighten her body, and then suddenly stretch its body to create oppositepower to catch the prey.
One Moves, Everything Moves
TheChen style is the oldest, it still contains a lot of martial contents.Although it looks soft, it does have instant hardness. When releasingit, Fah Jing (the techniques of releasing internal power) is occurred.But in order to achieve this, the important thing is how to transmit theinternal power. My teacher told me the principle: one moves,everything moves. The Chen style not only requires using muscle butalso needs to use bone, ligament, tendon, Qi, spiritual thinking and soon. Because of this way, a good practitioner is able to coordinate hisdifferent parts of body and to keep moving them to gather his maximuminternal power either for issuing it or for redirecting the opponentsforce. Once one moves, everything moves, not just move the hands or thelegs only! Hence, a practitioner needs to know something aboutTraditional Chinese Medicine (Jingluo theory), Anatomy and the theory ofYin and Yan. For example, when you use strength from your legs, youmust know the meridian San Yang. Thus the energy (Qi) will go downalong San Yang (lateral meridian) to the feet, and then the energygoes back to the interior meridian San Yin, it is a small Yin and Yancycle. Therefore, when issuing energy, you must understand how to keepmoving all relevant joints to let the Qi flow. Hereby, the internalpower can be transferred lively and springy by means of constantmovement.
Summary
I just summarised a few characteristicsof the Chen style I have learnt from my teacher. But, there are morefeatures we need to identify and address, such as the techniques of howto borrow the opponents power; breathing techniques and so on. From mylearning experience, in the beginning, the hardest thing is how to learnsoftness, in other word, how to relax muscles especially for theshoulder, elbow and wrist muscles. It does take a bit long time. Afterthat, the next step is to improve strength by doing Solo single form,Push hand, Long pole, and Tai Chi ball. The last step is how to combinethe softness and hardness together and transfer the internal powerfluently and peacefully, like the wave of sea.
In short, the Chenstyle is a kind of martial arts with a serene heart plus aconcentrated mind, which allows the nerve centre to rest, improvingability to coordinate the functions of the various organs of the body.Relaxation of the whole body, deep and natural breathing, smootharm-like actions and it aims at conveying ones inner force to tips ofthe limbs by mental exertion, resulting in harmony of the inside andoutside body. It is most suitable for both physical fitness exercise andself-defence training.
