Four Angular Hands in Chen Style Tai Chi

Broadcast on March 03, 2023
With Violet Li
Hosted by Matthew Cohen

According to Violet Li, of the 13 Tai Chi postures, the Four Angular Hands are most effective in combative maneuvering. They are Cai (plugging), Le (splitting), Zhou (elbowing), and Kao (bumping) — they are not mere movements, but energy rendering.

In this session, you’ll discover:

  • How Tai Chi Chuan uses energy instead of brute force in a combative situation
  • A better understanding of the body physiques 
  • The Four Angular Hands posture
