This Taiji Silk-Reeling Internal Training course starts with two introductory segments to build a complete practice framework. It first covers seven core internal principles including empty spirit lifting the vertex, upright body alignment, and sinking shoulders with dropping elbows, paired with four tendon-stretching and bone-strengthening forms to loosen the body. Next come dynamic and static standing practices: Independent Stance, Large Shed Stance, Yin-Yang Stance and Hunyuan Stance to lay a solid foundation. The core module explains Taiji silk-reeling internal strength, breaking down forward and reverse silk-reeling with guided drills. Footwork includes Yang-style stepping, side steps, backward steps and Chen-style gliding steps. The form section features the Nine Heaven Forms of Yang Taiji and Chen Taiji, with classic movements like Wild Horse Splits Its Mane, Grasping the Bird’s Tail, Diamond Pounds the Mortar and Lazy to Tie the Coat. Both sets are equipped with full follow-along sessions. Progressing from posture and standing work to silk-reeling and routines, the course guides learners step by step to master the essence of Taiji silk-reeling, ideal for enthusiasts seeking systematic training in Taiji internal power.

02-Detailed Explanation of Internal Martial Arts
This chapter explains seven core internal principles: Empty Spirit Uplifting the Vertex, Upright and Centered Posture, Sink Shoulders and Drop Elbows, Round Crotch and Open Hips, Sink Qi to the Dantian, Transition between Empty and Solid, and Natural Breathing. Practitioners align their frame, relax shoulders and hips, sink breath and shift weight naturally. Regular practice corrects posture, loosens joints and unifies internal force. It builds fundamental Taiji body mechanics, laying a solid foundation for tendon stretching, standing work and silk-reeling training.

03-Tendon & Bone Stretching Practice
The tendon-stretching and bone-loosening practice includes four forms: Sky-Gazing and Earth-Pressing, Turning Head to Watch the Moon, Crane Standing with Wings Unfurled, and Reversing Heaven and Earth. This set stretches fascia and joints, relieves bodily tension. Regular practice boosts flexibility, eases stiffness and improves mobility. It opens the body for standing and silk-reeling training, removes rigidity and helps practitioners feel internal force flow, serving as essential foundational warm-up work for Taiji internal practice.

04-Internal Arts Standing Practice
Internal standing practice covers dynamic and static stances: Independent Stance, Large Shed Stance, Yin-Yang Stance and Hunyuan Stance. Dynamic stances train weight shift and force circulation, while static Hunyuan Stance stabilizes body alignment. Regular practice strengthens legs, stabilizes balance and cultivates sunk internal force. It helps practitioners maintain upright posture and feel the alternation of empty and solid. As core training for Taiji internal development, standing work lays a solid foundation for silk-reeling and form practice.

05-Tai Chi Silk Reeling Internal Skill
Taiji Silk-Reeling Internal Power is the core of this course, featuring two fundamental methods: forward silk-reeling and reverse silk-reeling. Silk-reeling focuses on spiral movement of the body. Practitioners feel the circulation of internal force through rotation. Repeated practice clarifies forward and reverse force paths and removes bodily rigidity. Consistent training connects strength throughout the body and keeps internal power continuous. As the signature of Taiji, silk-reeling brings internal force to footwork and forms, serving as essential core training for Taiji internal power.

06-Yang Style Basic Steps
Yang-style basic footwork consists of forward steps, side steps and backward steps. As the foundation of forms, footwork training maintains upright posture, focuses on weight transition and steady, rounded movement. Repeated practice stabilizes balance and builds solid footing. Regular training eliminates unsteady steps and achieves coordinated body and leg movement. Mastery of these three steps allows smooth transmission of silk-reeling force in Yang-style routines, laying a reliable lower-body foundation for form practice.

08-Chen Style Basic Steps
Chen-style basic footwork focuses on gliding step, a unique lower-body foundation technique for Chen Taiji. Practitioners glide the foot lightly along the ground while keeping upright posture and stable weight transfer, coordinating body movement with internal force. The gliding step features light yet steady footwork and maintains spiral silk-reeling force throughout movement, highlighting Chen Taiji’s power storage and release. Repeated practice sharpens foot awareness and stabilizes the lower body. Mastering this step enables smooth transitions in Chen-style Tianyan Nine Forms and integrates silk-reeling force into footwork.

Integrated with Chen’s spiral silk-reeling force, the routine balances hardness and softness. Practitioners combine gliding steps and feel power storage-release and weight shifts. Regular training strengthens spiral force and limb coordination. This comprehensive set helps learners integrate posture, footwork and internal power to experience the unique force characteristics of Chen Taiji.
