HISTORICAL CONTEXT
Taiji Push Hands (Tui Shou) is the essential interactive training method of Yang Style Taijiquan, serving as the bridge between solo form practice and actual combat. This volume is presented by Master Zhang Fuhua, a 6th-generation heir and direct disciple of Grandmaster Fu Shengyuan. Historically, Push Hands was the laboratory where practitioners tested their structural integrity and Listening skills (Ting Jin) against a live opponent. The goal is not to use brute force but to know the opponent through tactile sensitivity. This DVD preserves the traditional Yang family approach to Tui Shou, emphasizing the principles of Four Ounces Deflecting a Thousand Pounds and the cultivation of internal sensitivity over external strength.
TECHNICAL PHILOSOPHY
The technical philosophy of Yang Style Push Hands is built upon the foundation of Adhere and Follow (Zhan Nian Lian Sui). The practitioner seeks to maintain a constant, sticky connection with the opponent, neither dropping the contact nor resisting with stiff force (Bu Diu Bu Ding). The routine incorporates the Eight Energies (Ba Jin): Peng (Ward-off), Lu (Roll-back), Ji (Press), An (Push), Cai (Pluck), Lie (Split), Zhou (Elbow), and Kao (Shoulder). Master Zhang explains that the intent is to Take Preemptive Steps by sensing the opponent's movement before it manifests, achieving a state where the opponent does not know me, but I alone know the opponent.
BIOMECHANICAL ANALYSIS
Push Hands is a masterclass in biomechanical efficiency and structural buoyancy. Master Zhang demonstrates how to use the Hunyuan structure to absorb and redirect incoming force through the legs and into the ground. Instead of meeting force with force, the practitioner uses Spiral Rotation to dissipate the opponent's kinetic energy. The training focuses on the Sensitivity of the Skin and internal proprioception, allowing the body to react spontaneously to changes in pressure. The biomechanics of Neutralizing Power (Hua Jin) are analyzed, showing how subtle Dantian rotations and the opening of the Kua (pelvis) can render an opponent's attack empty and ineffective.
PRACTICE AND APPLICATION
This DVD provides a comprehensive guide to the traditional Yang Style Push Hands technical routine. Master Zhang Fuhua, assisted by Xu Jishui and Zhou Rongjun, breaks down the basic circular patterns and the transition into more linear applications. The instruction covers the integration of grabbing, catching, throwing, and hitting within the Tui Shou framework. By practicing these interactive drills, students develop the Super Martial Art Skills required to take advantage of an enemy's force to counter-attack. This volume is an indispensable resource for any serious Taijiquan practitioner seeking to understand the true combat logic and internal sensitivity of the Yang Style lineage.
