Oriental martial arts

"An essential guide for T'ai Chi practitioners of all skill levels with an overview of basic principles and commentary on three classic internal martial arts texts

According to Master Liao, the great power of T'ai Chi cannot be realized without knowing its inner meaning. T'ai Chi Classics presents the inner meaning and techniques of T'ai Chi movements through translations of three core classics of T'ai Chi, often considered the ""T'ai Chi Bible"".

Divided into three chapters, the guide explains how to increase inner energy (ch'i), transform it into inner power (jing), and project this inner power outward to repel an opponent without physical contact. Master Liao also provides a description of the entire sequence of T'ai Chi movements, illustrated by his own line drawings."
