The Yang Tàijí 24-Step Short Form

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.

The goal of this project had from the start been to surpass the current standard in the martial arts literary market, and offer readers worldwide something which they have never seen before. In essence, a book in which are found countless answers for martial arts practitioners which th...

Taijiquan Prinzipien für Menschen in Unternehmen und Organisationen

Im Managementbereich gibt es eine Vielzahl von Schulungen zu Themen wie Kommunikation, Stressreduktion und Konfliktmanagement. Leider fehlen diesen Schulungen oft Übungen, mit denen das Wissen von den Köpfen in den Körper gebracht werden kann. Die teilweise rein intellektuellen Konzepte sind noch nicht im alltäglichen Handeln in den Unternehmen angekommen. Dies ist auch nicht weiter verwunderlich, da es schwer ist, seine Gewohnheiten aufgrund theoretischer, rein intellektueller Einsichten zu verändern. Und spätestens in Krisenzeiten und Stresssituationen verfallen wir immer wieder in unsere gewohnheitsmäßigen Muster. Die grundlegenden Prinzipien der inneren Kampfkunst Taijiquan lasse...
