Welcome to the Sun Taijiquan 73 Competition Form webpage. I hope this webpage

will benefit you in your stuy of this beautiful an li!ely Sun Taijiquan Form. I

welcome your comments" feebac# an suggestions. This webpage is currently

unergoing wee#ly e!elopment" sections are being con!erte into the $%F format" an

the webpage shoul be complete by the en of &uly" '()(.

I first learne the Sun Taijiquan 73 Form by using instructional%*%s or *+S meia

prouce by Taijiquan masters li#e $aul ,am" &esse Tsao" &iang &ian-ye" ,ee %e in"

/uang0hi 1ing. an ,iang Shou-u. I foun the boo#an %*% title 2The

Competition outine of Sun Style Taijiquan"2 eite by 4hong Shan" to be of great

benefit. I ha!e benefite from reaingboo#san articles by Sun ,u Tang" Tim

Cartmell" $aul Tam" 4hong Shan" Sun &ian un" an others. *iewing an stuying

5Tube an /oogle!ieoshas sometimes been !ery useful. I ha!e also benefite from

some irect personal instruction from two Sun Taijiquan teachers6 $aul ,am" an Troyce

Thome. I was certifie to teach Tai Chi for rthritis" which ma#es use of the )) an 3(

mo!ement Sun Style Taijiquan forms e!elope by $aul ,am" 8.%.. I loo# forwar to

learning more in the future through my aily practice" research" stuy" corresponence"

wor#shops" seminars" teaching" an occasional pri!ate lessons. It is my intention to

complete the research an publication on this webpage by the Summer of '()(.

Since personal instruction in the Sun Taijiquan 73 Competition Form or 9: Classical

Form" from a qualifie teacher or Taijiquan master" is !ery ifficult to obtain in the

5nite States" most Taijiquan enthusiasts in the 5S will nee to learn the basics of the

Sun Taijiquan 73 Form on their own. $eople" li#e me" who li!e in less populate rural

areas" are e;tremely unli#ely to ha!e access to a Sun Taijiquan teacher for regular

instruction. Fortunately" using the many outstaning meia resources now reaily

a!ailable will ma#e the tas# of learning the basics of the Sun Taijiquan 73 Form on your

own much easier. Since there are many more meia resources for learning the Sun

Taijiquan 73 Competition Form than for learning the Sun Taijiquan Classical 9: Form"

it is wiser to begin with learning the 73 Form. I ha!e pro!ie suggestions regaring

what I ha!e foun to be the best !ieo an print instructional resources for learning theSun Taijiquan 73 Formbelow. fter you #now the form well an wish to significantly

a!ance your #nowlege an s#ill" you will then nee to train aily an iligently" get in

top physical conition" an see# coaching from a Sun Taijiquan master.

2nother characteristic of the Sun Style is the stepping metho6 a!ancing or

retreating steps are usually followe by a half step forwars or bac#wars. This is

ifferent from other styles of Taijiquan" such as ang Style where bow stance is wiely

employe for postures. When you practice Sun Style mo!ements" you will fin the boy

weight is constantly shifte between the two legs. Sun Style Taijiquan emphasi0es the

goo control of balance between the transference of boy weight so that all mo!ements

can be performe smoothly without a jer#" pause or suen increase in spee. This is

why Sun Style Taijiquan is also referre to as 2open an close2 Taiji" or 2nimble step2

Taiji. It is important to unerstan that only when the min" boy an qi are in accor

can you gain the power to generate an enhance the true qi an to heal.2
