Taijiquan has a way of slipping through the fingers of even its most devoted students. In these pages, Robert Amacker offers his unifying view as directly as possible, not as an argument to win, but as ideas to test in the body, where Taiji is ultimately proved. Writing with the confidence of long experience, he is less concerned with persuading you than with giving you a method that, given time, can persuade you for yourself. If you’ve ever suspected that Taijiquan’s paradoxes must resolve into an elegant underlying logic, this book is for that hope — and for the moment you feel it in practice.
What is the Taijiquan Solo Form? What is it that we are actually supposed to be practicing? Why is it done so slowly?
It has been a long-standing conundrum that something invisible is going on, something internal. Here, in elaborate detail, are thirteen meditations that can spell the difference between hopeful fantasy and concrete progress; all critical to ultimate Taijiquan mastery. If you’re looking for explicit, detailed instruction on the internal aspects of Taijiquan Solo Form practice, aspects that transcend any style or version of the Form, this book is for you.
