Intensive Taijiquan Course of January 2006
Fundamentals of Wahnam Taijiquan Part 6CLOUD HANDS
It is reputed that the great Taijiquan master, Yang Lu Chan, practiced “Grasping Sparrow’s Tail” thousands of times everyday. He was so skillful that he used only this pattern to defeat all challengers. But actually “Grasping Sparrow’s Tail” was formulated later by his grandson, and its fore-runner was probably “Cloud Hands”. Hence, it was probable that Yang Lu Chan practiced “Cloud Hands” everyday. “Cloud Hands” is not a pattern with fixed forms, it is a general term for a collection of flowing movements. Here Sifu Wong shows some typical “Cloud Hands” movements.
