The straight double-edged sword has fascinated China for years. Considered to be the queen of all traditional weapons, it occupies a place of honour in the heritage of Martial Arts. Moreover, the spirit of the sword has a profound symbolic value in Chinese culture, thanks to which it transcends its practical use as a combat tool, sinking its blade into folklore, the arts and philosophy. The complexity of its handling and the precision required by each of the techniques that give it essence, make the straight sword an instrument of martial refinement without parallel. This book presents a detailed description of the 32-Step Straight Sword Form: one of the most widely used and practised sequences of Tai Chi Chuan in the world. This sword Form is a simplified version of the traditional Yang style one that allows beginners and intermediate level practitioners to be introduced to the study of this emblematic weapon.

Download The Yang Tàijí 24-Step Short Form Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Yang 24-Step Tàijíquan is one of the most widely-practiced Tàijíquan forms in the world today, and the form that most people first learn. Gentle enough to be suitable for the elderly, yet challenging enough to stretch even the most experienced practitioner, it is also one of the most accessible and rewarding. In his new book, James Drewe provides a comprehensive and detailed explication of the postures and movements of the form. For each, he describes exactly how the weight flows, how to use the hands, how to move the limbs, and how to relax into the movement, clearly explaining each step with the aid of foot patterns and photographs. Sections on the internal aspects of Tàijíquan, descriptions of the subtle variations that may be made when performing certain movements, and even instructions on how to fit the movements to music are also included. This comprehensive guide to Yang 24-Step Tàijíquan is an invaluable resource for taiji practitioners at all levels, including beginners, as well as taiji instructors, and students of other martial arts.
