It is said,”
100 days of barehand, 1000 days of spear, 10,000 days of sword.” – Ancient Chinese (sword) Proverb
Beyond the barehand form, beyond Pushing Hands awaits the elegant and highly effective Sword of Taijiquan. Taiji Sword has long been considered the highest achievement in Taijiquan training. Mainly used as a defensive weapon, Taiji Sword requires a strategy of ‘calmness in action’. To achieve this calmness, the student must develop patience, peace of mind, and bravery.
