help you? If you treat it like a sport and rely on strength and
speed more than skill, how can an older person manage?
Of course, if we have to fight against too many
opponents, the way in which Chinese martial arts deal with
this situation is through using many different kinds of
weapons:- long weapons like the spear and short weapons
like the knife or sword and throwing daggers. Even the principle
of the throwing dagger is this:- If the enemy is strong we
avoid, if the enemy is weak we go ahead.
Nature is fantastic. An elephant, which is big, can scare
all the other animals and a mouse, which is small, would not
be able to scare an elephant but it can get into an
elephants trunk or on its back and cause
him irritation. Big animals are
slower (especially in changing
directions) and small ones are
faster. So everything in
nature is balanced. No one
can be absolutely sure of
winning; it is all about the
situation. Humans are big
and a virus is small but so
many humans die because
of viruses.
So when we practise
Tui Shou, we should not avoid
training with someone stronger
and when we train with them we
should not try and use strength
to compete with their strength. We
need to follow the principles of
Taijiquan which are the principle of the
Yin and Yang circle. An opponent will not
be able to push you as long as they
cannot break your centre of gravity. You
should be able to change your centre
of gravity as the situation changes
and you should be able to
