#Taijiquan #CentralEquilibrium #AdamMizner

As a centerpiece if not THE centerpiece to Yang Taijiquan practice, the concept of Central Equilibrium (Zhong Ding) is something every Taijiquan practitioner should be intimately aware of. But many even don't know what it means. How can you have balance and harmony without knowing what the Central Equilibrium is? What do you relax or release into, if not the Central Equilibrium?

During the recent one month intensive, hands on training camp for senior students that just concluded, in Phuket, Thailand, sifu Adam Mizner takes the time to clearly explain to the participants about balance, harmony and the Central Equilibrium that makes Taijiquan what it is! It is important to have the right mental model in addition to all the training geared towards the embodiment of balance, harmony and the Central Equilibrium sifu Adam Mizner shares with his students.

The one month intensive training camps are for students who have achieved the necessary prerequisite level of cultivation to have the right skills that will allow them to reach the next level through the crucial work done during the intensive, hands on training with sifu Adam Mizner.

2024 One Month Intensive Training - Phuket, Thailand w Sifu Adam Mizner. Limited availability.

It's the same as the philosophy of the golden mean, which is to use the appropriate amount of force to defend yourself without losing your integrity or hurting the opponent as much as possible. Hence, Taijiquan is a martial art of diplomacy.

Since you mentioned this, what are the different kinds of Chi? Is there an answer for that?

I learnt a Nei Kung spiritual system and we cultivate chi for health, energy and spiritual growth. It leads to certain things to developing but apart from maybe knowing how to Fajin i have no clue how to use the chi in a hands on martial arts sense. Good to see there are guys like Adam who know and can pass on such knowledge, skill. 🙏

Dear Sifu Adam Mizner

Let me recaputulate:
-Tai chi is Balance and Harmony
- To achieve Balance, Jin and Jang have to be separated
-to achive Harmony, they have to be reunited and coordinated

I sometimes, especially recently, look at overrated automobiles Beemers and Mercs and think to myself "Blimey! They're a bit off zhong ding." Thanks for the info, Sifu!

Thanks, wonder if you can explain what Luke Chan says about "turning" from inside "like galaxy" and turning the tongue because it doesn't make sense to me, partly because its asymmetrical movement.

I don't quite understand the explanation regarding equilibrium and central equilibrium (Zhong Ding) with the Taijitu symbol???
So if there is absolute balance in yin-yang in interaction with each other (movement in Taijitu-Symbol), there must be an balance point from yin to yang but also an balance point from yang to yin.
So the whole S-shape curve in the Taijitu symbol (when rotating) consists of equilibrium points that form a pair from both sides.
The central equilibrium (Zhong Ding) would only be in this case in the center of the rotation.

So...like babies...infants, we need to learn how to use our hands, learn how to walk, even how to control our bowels and bladders. We did all of this body mechanics learning then...but then learned to be more external, or learned that just those basic mechanical needs were necessary and so stopped internalizing though staying in touch with it would have been more beneficial for our well-being. Kinda-sorta like that?

I love it Adam. You are taking a materialist approach (not superficial materialism but material as in that which is real) instead of an idealist, air fairy post modern no objective points of reference for truth approach.

"We're here to develop the skill of T'ai Chi Chuan..." this video begins begins. I guess this is supposed to be some sort of intro. for a presumed paying audience whom we never see & who will then become initiated into secret mysteries, because for us, the uninitiated, this is nothing more than an advertisement for us to reach for our credit cards & sign up, to be in that presumed audience, because otherwise we'll learn nothing, as we do here, about simply developing Zhong Ding, the curtain of ignorance will not dissipate nor rise, the video will simply end & we'll know nothing more at the end of the video than we knew at its beginning about developing Zhong Ding in our practice... But I did appreciate Sifu Mizner giving us his definition of it, so in that sense it wasn't a waste of my time.

At 5.56 you say, Zhong Ding is not physical, one moment later you say, you have to separate your pysicality..
How should that work, when your body is just one all the time??
It is a contradiction in itself and makes it all more complicated as it is..

😂😂😂 these people love to hear themselves talk. Zhong ding is protecting your vestibular apparatus, whilst attacking your opponents. Simple as that.
