Taichi Quan is one of the traditional Chinese martial arts. All the forms were originally created with the application in mind. Knowing how to apply the forms in the real combatting situation is the most efficient way in learning TJQ. By knowing the application, the body and mind can be properly engaged. The energy and power can be efficiently generated and delivered to the extremities of the body. When a new form is introduced, an application of the form will be demonstrated first. After a step by step learning of the form-movement, students partner up to practice the application in order to enhance the memory of the new form.
