The mother of all movement | The Tai Chi Notebook

The Tai Chi Notebook. Reflections on martial arts – from ancient to modern. The mother of all movement. August 6, 2015. January 14, 2016. How one thing leads to another. Each move in the form is the mother, and the applications are the children – each one subtly different. I can come up with a lot of applications for each move. For this one I had a strike, a choke, a throw, etc, all with slightly different emphasis. It’s endless, really. The road less traveled. The uncarved block →. Fighting goes to the ...

The Tai Chi Notebook. Reflections on martial arts – from ancient to modern. June 24, 2016. I’ll be honest, I’m so depressed about what just happened to my country (voting to leave the EU) and the inevitable break up of the United Kingdom that will follow that I don’t feel like contributing to the world in a positive way right now, so I’m going to shutter my blog until I feel differently. Britain, I am disappoint. You used to be better than this. The power of concentration. June 24, 2016. 8221; Swamiji la...

Tai Chi Elements virtual training environment | Spiralwise - Tai chi from a scientific perspective
http://taichiblog.spiralwise.co.uk/2012/11/tai-chi-elements-virtual-training.html
Friday, 2 November 2012. Tai Chi Elements virtual training environment. Thanks very much to my friend, and reader, Ashley for pointing this out to me]. An interesting kickstarter proposal for a new virtual environment for training in tai chi. Is currently open for backers. The idea seems to be that it's a virtual world where people can study 3D models of "Tai Chi masters" developed through motion capture technology. For example to match your body positions to that of the motion capture model. We relaunch...
The love of chi | Spiralwise - Tai chi from a scientific perspective
http://taichiblog.spiralwise.co.uk/2013/05/the-love-of-chi.html
Friday, 3 May 2013. The love of chi. In a previous post. I discussed the analogy of chi and love. Following a conversation I had recently, I was reminded of this analogy and thought I would spend some time to elaborate on it, as I find it to be quite powerful. The nature of what chi. I believe that by considering the analogy that chi is like love, it becomes obvious which questions are meaningless and enlightens us all, validating both the scientific and the spiritual viewpoints. Again only in a metaphor...

Chi is not energy | Spiralwise - Tai chi from a scientific perspective
http://taichiblog.spiralwise.co.uk/2011/09/chi-is-not-energy.html
Tuesday, 20 September 2011. Chi is not energy. Humans can't transmit energy like this. This is a fundamental question of the internal arts. To my mind is it also the root cause of why Westerners are sceptical of practices such as yoga and tai chi. Internal arts teachers rabbit (or should that be parrot) on about chi being energy (as they were instructed), but chi is not energy and I will explain why. Can I put chi into an energy chain as I have just done in that example? The concept of chi is no longer a...
Robotics framework | Spiralwise - Tai chi from a scientific perspective
http://taichiblog.spiralwise.co.uk/p/robotics-framework.html
While trying to think about tai chi in a scientific context, I came up with the idea of a robotics thought experiment framework. In other words, what would it mean for robots to do tai chi? In order to train a robot (which is essentially a computer) to do tai chi, hippy style energies waffle wouldn't work. Instead you would have to use precise algorithms, definitions and terminologies and have to explain tai chi in the language of science. But for robotics. If you could do tai chi push hands with a r...
My local tai chi motion caputre facility | Spiralwise - Tai chi from a scientific perspective
http://taichiblog.spiralwise.co.uk/2012/05/my-local-tai-chi-motion-caputre.html
Friday, 25 May 2012. My local tai chi motion caputre facility. I just discovered there is a tai chi motion capture facility. Only about half an hours drive away from me at the University of Portsmouth! It seems that it is open to the public in principle (by arrangement), so I'm sorely tempted to go down there myself! Maybe this will be a realistic way in to start scientifically analysing my movements. And a lot of fun of course :-). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Chi is not energy. Review: The five ...

Correcting a couple of details: the opening circle (verse 1, line 1) is clockwise (I’ve updated my earlier post); and in line 2, when she steps across with the left, she swings the sword left, too.
