Tai chi chuan is an internal Chinese martial art often practiced for health reasons. Tai chi is typically practiced for a variety of other personal reasons: its hard and soft martial art technique, demonstration competitions, health and longevity. Consequently, a multitude of training forms exist, both traditional and modern, which correspond to those aims. Some of tai chi chuan's training forms are well known to Westerners as the slow motion routines that groups of people practice together every morning in parks around the world, particularly in China. Today, tai chi has spread worldwide. Most modern styles of tai chi trace their development to at least one of the five traditional schools: Chen, Yang, Wu/Hao, Wu and Sun。
太极拳是中国正宗内家武术,通常情况下锻炼的目的是为了健康。另外,练太极还有其他的原因:练习刚柔相继的技击技术、实战、健康和长寿等等。因此,出于不同的目的,相应会有不同的锻炼方法,例如传统和现代。太极拳的锻炼方法使西方人认为它是一种很缓慢的动作套路,因此,我门经常看到一群群的人在花园里聚集在一起练习太极拳,特别是在中国。当今,太极拳已经在世界各地普及。太极拳现代风格套路发展至少起源于五种传统套路之一:陈式、杨式、吴式、孙式、武式。 |
