T’ai Chi: The Balance of the Body and Mind

T’ai chi (taiji, taijiquan) was created as a martial art with three main training modalities: solo practice, push hands, and free sparring. Push hands is a partner-training method aimed at cultivating physical and mental balance in which one training partner tries to disturb this balance by disrupting the center of his/her partner.
