Mastery in harmony and precision
The sticking spears, developed by General Chen Wangting in the 17th century, combine strategy, precision and flowing contact - the essence of Taijiquan on the battlefield. In this programme, Master Jan Silberstorff demonstrates the principles of the central line and spiral movement. With solo and partner exercises, you will learn to master attack and defence through harmonious twisting - without setting force against force. Each exercise promotes both physical precision and mental clarity.
Discover a historical method that deepens mindfulness and gongfu and has lost none of its relevance to this day.
