Man and its Martial Applications
By Thierry Alibert
Thierry Alibert presents through this series of 3 films his interpretation of a most comprehensive and wide tao (form) among Taiji Quan. Its aesthetic, its regular flow of techniques between power and gentleness, its link with nature thanks to the hidden presence of the 5 elements and the 5 animals, give it immense qualities, energy wise, martial wise, and spiritual wise. The origin of this rare form goes back to the 19th century, a time when this art wasn’t called Taiji Quan yet but Hao-Quan or Soft Boxing.It is said to have been created by the famous Yang Luchan (1799-1872) aka « Yang the Invincible ». It was later carried on by Yang Shaohou (1862-1928) one of the grand sons of the latter, who knew how to keep the pristine form of this art, his brother Yang Chengfu (1883-1936) developed a Taiji more suited to the early 20th century practice.
The study of this ancient form will delight all internal and external martial arts practitioners, but also all the persons (artists, athletes, therapists…) willing to have a system leading to a genuine personal development. You will discover in this film every sequence detailed in the 2nd part « Man », thanks to many view angles, slow motions, as well as their martial application in slow motion and in real speed.
You will also study the last 5 exercises of a detailed series of exercises for the “Iron Shirt” Qi-Gong. These ancient techniques were conceived in order to stimulate the Wei-Qi (protective energy) so that you could take the blows during the fight. If practiced on a regular basis, they will lead you to physical stamina and improvement of you vital energy.
