    Udemy-Authentic Fighting Tai Chi-Chen New Frame Routine (XinJia) 1

    The Chen Style Tai Chi New Frame Routine (XinJia) 1-Full Routine is my favorite among the total 8 sets of Chen Style Tai Chi that I have practiced. This routine is characterized by detailed movements, lower positions, and explosive releases of power, making it the master routine from which other Tai Chi styles, including Chen, Yang, and others, have derived.


    To ensure I am fully prepared for the routine, I always start with a 2km jogging warm-up, which helps me to reach 70% of my capacity. Then I practice Chen Style Tai Chi New Frame Routine (XinJia) 1-Full Routine, which helps me to reach 85% of my capacity, equivalent to a 5km jog or 10 minutes of rope skipping. To track my effort and heart rate during my practice, I use Myzone, a fitness tracking system that provides real-time heart rate monitoring and tracks physical activity. Myzone calculates my maximum heart rate (MHR) from the moment I start training and tracks my effort, providing me with accurate data on my progress.


    I believe that Myzone provides a more scientific way to measure the effectiveness of Tai Chi for fitness. By using this tool, I can see how my effort levels increase during my warm-up and throughout the routine, allowing me to adjust my practice to achieve my fitness goals. Overall, I find that the Chen Style Tai Chi New Frame Routine 1-Full Routine is an excellent way to improve my physical health and well-being.


    I am excited to announce that I am in the process of creating and uploading all 8 sets of Chen Style Tai Chi routines. My goal is to have them completed by the end of April or early May. However, due to my recent suspected contact with COVID-19, I have very minor symptoms and am currently in self-quarantine.


    I would like to thank you for your patience and continuous support as I work on creating better content for you. Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, I am committed to continuing to share my passion for Tai Chi and helping others to benefit from this ancient practice.


    Please bear with me as I navigate this difficult time and work to bring you the best possible content. I look forward to sharing the complete collection of Chen Style Tai Chi routines with you soon.

    陈氏太极拳老架一路以柔为主,柔中有刚,其特点是舒展大方,步法轻灵稳健,身法中正自然,内劲以缠丝劲为核心统领全身;动作如行云流水,绵绵不断,一动皆动,一静具静,发劲时松活弹抖,完整一气;在劲力上以掤、捋、挤、按为主,以采、挒、肘、靠为辅。

    Chen-style Tai Chi Quan, Old Frame Routine One, emphasizes softness and suppleness, with a blend of soft and hard. Its characteristics are expansiveness, grace, lightness, stability in footwork, and naturalness in body movements. The core of its internal strength is the coiling-silk energy, which leads the whole body. The movements flow continuously, like clouds and water, with every movement influencing the next, and stillness in movement. When issuing force, the body is relaxed, agile, and elastic, with a complete and continuous energy flow. In terms of energy, it focuses mainly on the techniques of warding off, rolling back, pressing, and pushing, supplemented by the techniques of plucking, rending, elbow-striking, and leaning.

  • Improve Your Balance - Eight Easy Tai Chi Postures to improve your balance4:41

    Benefits of Tai Chi - Better Balance

    The body systems responsible for balance can be affected by gradual changes due to aging or side effects of medications. There are also a host of health problems that can lead to unsteadiness on your feet. But many stability problems caused by aging or conditions such as arthritis, stroke, Parkinson's disease, or multiple sclerosis respond well to exercises designed to improve balance.


    Simple exercises to improve stability and prevent falls gives you step-by-step instructions for easy, effective workouts that will improve posture, increase muscle strength and speed, sharpen reflexes, expand flexibility, and firm your core. You'll also get tips for fall-proofing your home.   


    Tai chi improves balance and, according to some studies, reduces falls. Proprioception — the ability to sense the position of one's body in space — declines with age. Tai chi helps train this sense, which is a function of sensory neurons in the inner ear and stretch receptors in the muscles and ligaments. Tai chi also improves muscle strength and flexibility, which makes it easier to recover from a stumble. Fear of falling can make you more likely to fall; some studies have found that tai chi training helps reduce that fear.

Tai Chi or Shadow Boxing, another school of Kungfu in Chinese martial art culture, was born in Henan Province, 70km north to David Yao's native place.

Tai chi, short for T'ai chi ch'üan or Tàijí quán  (Chinese: 太极拳,太極拳; pinyin: Tàijí quán), is a traditional Chinese martial art which combines mind and awareness of our body, the deep diaphragmatic breathing and Qi, the inherent vital energy, through graceful movements to achieve mindfulness and relaxation. Tai chi is practiced for both its defense training, its health benefits and meditation.

Qigong, qi gong, chi kung, or chi gung (simplified Chinese: 气功 qìgōng literally: "Life Energy Cultivation") is a holistic system of coordinated body posture and movement, breathing, and meditation used in belief it promotes health, spirituality, and martial arts training. Qigong practice typically involves moving meditation, coordinating slow flowing movement, deep rhythmic breathing, and calm meditative state of mind.  Qigong can be viewed as a medicinal movement practice, combining breath work, relaxation, movement and self-massage all in one.

Tai Chi Strengthens Mind and Body

Tai Chi’s focus on posture and body placement may add benefits beyond what cardiovascular or resistance-training can provide.

Tai Chi, a moving Yoga, does more than burn calories and tone muscles. It will enable you to gain flexibility and strength, reducing stress and allowing for greater relaxation. It's a total mind-body workout that combines strengthening and stretching poses with deep breathing and meditation or relaxation.

The health benefits of tai chi

This gentle form of exercise can help maintain strength, flexibility, and balance, and could be the perfect activity for the rest of your life.

Tai chi is often described as "meditation in motion, moving Yoga,"  which originated in China as a martial art.  The Chen Style Tai chi is the oldest and parent form of the five traditional family styles of Tai chi. Chen-style is characterized by Silk reeling, alternating fast/slow motion and bursts of power.  The Chen Style is Originated in Hen Nan Chen Jia Gou, 70 KM at north of David Yao's birth place.

There is growing evidence that this mind-body practice, has value in treating or preventing many health problems. And you can get started even if you aren't in top shape or the best of health.  In this low-impact, slow-motion exercise, you go without pausing through a series of motions.  As you move, you breathe deeply and naturally, focusing your attention — as in some kinds of meditation — on your bodily sensations. Tai chi differs from other types of exercise in several respects. The movements are usually circular and never forced, the muscles are relaxed rather than tensed, the joints are not fully extended or bent, and connective tissues are not stretched. Tai chi can be easily adapted for anyone, from the most fit to people confined to wheelchairs or recovering from surgery.
