The "stand down" is still in positions , as in Zhang Zhuan, whether in motion (eg in forms of tai chi) is the first way that the practitioner has to find the strength and stability posture.
In a word: roots.
Why in the Kung Fu must be Rooted in the Earth?
Having a strong sense of being rooted to the earth is the first step towards the development of internal strength, in fact the classic texts of Tai Chi Chuan reveal that "the internal force has its roots in the feet, develops in the legs, is controlled from life and is manifested in the fingers. "exercises in addition Tui Shou a wide position and low center of gravity promotes the lowering of our than the opponent, increasing the balance and making techniques thrust and projection much easier to perform.
Finally, low position requiring considerable physical effort, greatly strengthening the muscles lower limbs and increases joint mobility.
Obviously not the positions should be maddeningly low, or at least too low to our level.
How do I get the good positions?
The road is always the same: find a good school where there is a teacher able to explain the exercises correctly.If you are in Turin and want to practice kung fu you remember that you can come for a trial lesson in our course of tai chi chuan .
