About Push-Hands
Tui-Shou
Tui Shou, also called “push hands”, is used traditionally in Taiji and other martial arts. It promotes anchoring, listening and self-awareness in the relationship to the other and to space.
This practice helps to learn to maintain the link and movement while remaining relaxed and in balance. It allows you to manage your own energy more efficiently, to maintain the right distance, to understand the forces exercised by everyone and to use them to your advantage.
The acquired principles are transposable to any situation of everyday life as well as to various bodily or therapeutic practices.
