As my teacher teaches, I study. Taiji Gong at its heart is the embodiment of Taiji principles and inner transformation. Certainly worth striving for.

Sifu Adam Mizner transmits authentic Taijiquan from a place of experience, direct knowing and with succinct clarity. It’s always interesting to listen to him speak. With some physical experience of his art the words he uses to speak of it in conversation will always be of benefit in the insight they provide.

The paradox of progress within Taiji is that the mind and body need to achieve a certain baseline of “normalcy” before true gains can be made. My teacher talks about this. In order to achieve this one has to practise their Taiji correctly. Correct practise isn’t just following the method’s detail with accuracy it is also, perhaps more importantly practising with the correct temperament of mind.

Over the course of time life will pull one away from one’s practise and it is at these times that we need our practise the most. Here is the conundrum, to get the most out of training Taiji the mental posture is arguably the most important aspect to get in order. Without it one’s “availability” to practise, and any effort expended is greatly diminished in its return. This is where it gets challenging, navigating life and practise together where the reason one needs to practise is also the impediment to progress.

Through difficulties it isn’t easy applying and maintaining the lessons of one’s teacher, but if they can be applied as best as one can manage at any one time then the fruits of labour will be born. Just like we endeavour to maintain release under physical duress, eventually lowering the baseline of calm at rest, so too is there an increase in mental calm and clarity as a consequence of trying to meet mentally stressful situations with equanimity.

The positive result is that over time hardship and challenge can serve to sharpen the tools available to us for our practise. Ultimately becoming an aid in one’s cultivation.

“The four Jins are dependent on fullness, and the four diagonal Jins are to make up for deficiency.” - Sifu Adam Mizner.

At the core of Taijiquan is the transformation of being which allows for the cultivation of fullness. In order to achieve transformation direct transmission of correct method is imperative. Sifu Adam’s ability to disseminate information with succinct clarity makes this possible.

With the right teacher and the correct method, knowledge and insights are the key to developing the right qualities of body and mind. As often as you can, endeavour to spend time with a teacher who has those qualities; and in return it is important to sincerely follow the method to the highest degree you can.

“The opening of the silk body, the inner transformation of the body to make it big, on the inside.” - Sifu Adam Mizner.

Freedom comes from within when the mind and Qi are both in posture; from the creation of internal space coupled with the external ability to adapt. The internal art of Taiji is built upon a foundation of openness within the inner body. A quality that underpins the whole fundamental process of development.

To learn more about the methodology of achieving this, book your place at Sifu Adam’s next public teaching event in June; Bucharest:

It’s important to push the limits of one’s nervous system and increase its range within the body. In order to recruit and make available more and more fibres of one’s being, it is important that one develops the quality of the nervous system’s ability to permeate throughout the body. This is of the utmost significance when it comes to transmitting information, both from the central nervous system out to the limbs and back again.

This is first achieved through opening the body and unbinding its tissues, making loose the joints and creating space for new neural pathways to be laid. Once some Jibengong has been achieved then the preliminary grounds for cultivation are in place. It is the method and its details which will develop the nervous system further. The mind has both an active and a passive function, simultaneously engaging in an observational and commanding capacity; maintaining a constant “firing” of the nervous system as both conditions and causes are applied. The result over time is that the mind begins to “fill” the body, absorbing further and deeper, increasing the physical challenge of one’s practise.

At this stage of training it can take quite a lot of out the practitioner, it is important to fuel adequately and rest accordingly. Although this stage can make great improvements to the quality of one’s health and wellbeing, it is merely one aspect of the physical, and a prerequisite for the beginning of Taiji’s development to take place.

We have degrees of wrong, this must be accepted. We also have the power of sincerity and correct method. It is the doing, the sincerity towards the accuracy of detail that changes and transforms the body towards being correct. Add faith and one has all that is needed; the path of cultivation lies ahead.
