Opis

Cloud Hands - the Origins of Taijiquan, is the fictionalised story of He Zhaoyuan, the real life creator of He-Style Taijiquan. Equal parts Martial Art, rejuvenating exercise and spiritual guidance system, Taijiquan/Tai Chi is the most practiced "sport" in the world today. But little is known of its origins. Pealing back the legendary, the historical, and the lessons in between, Steven Gilshenen, the author of Mark of the Shaolin - Tigers of Wulin Series - tells the story of this powerful art's creation and its evolution through the ages, told through the true life story of He Zhaoyuan, a man admired for his combat ability as well as his skill in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Beginning with the early days of He Zhaoyuan's training onto his employment in the Capital as a bodyguard, Cloud Hands details the interactions of the famous masters of the day, from the well known Chen Family and Yang Luchan to the mysterious method of Zhaobao Taijiquan, said to be the original form of this treasured art, a style only recently being taught in the world at large. Fighting scenes reminiscent of old Kung Fu movies share the story with accurate descriptions of Traditional healing methods, court intrigue and the mysterious Mountain Men of the Wudang Temple. Cloud Hands is as much the journey a Martial Arts student traverses on their Path to mastery as it is a tale of friendship, loss and the struggle to do what is right in a world that desires a less noble Path.
