Erle Montaigue – Advanced Push hands Vol.1

this the advanced version of Video No.5 and deals with the very rare push
hands techniques of “Peng/Hinge”, “Square”, and “Small Circle Ch’i-na”
Pushing Hands. This is where we learn about T’ai Chi and the push hands
for fighting and not just to gain timing balance and coordination. Many
more techniques are also covered for the more normal “p’eng, lu, chi,
arn” pushing hands. This is where you get serious about learning
Taijiquan! This is where you leave behind your basic training and
especially your basic pushing hands which essentially is flawed because
it is for beginners.It
is impossible to teach beginners advanced methods, so in teaching
beginners the way of push hands has to be modified so that the stark
beginner can understand what to do. Sadly, most people only ever see
this basic level or “I push you, you push me”! However, there ARE no
pushes in Taijiquan as it is a most devastating martial art and it would
bring disaster to push someone in a real fighting situation! So when
you get to the advanced method, you begin to learn Taijiquan as a real
streetwise self-defense art and not a silly pushing sport! Push hands at
its more advanced levels is the very best training method to teach
self-defense.
