(Published in Diario El País) of Tai Chi Chuan , on Sunday, May 1st, 2011 at 13:12 | | This Chinese martial art fans sum every year, especially in summer and on beaches. Its practitioners talk about great benefits on your body. a man asks his wife forties, and points to a group of people lining the beach sands Pocitos. "They are not playing, do Tai Chi", she replies, very safe. The dialogue does not last long because the woman did not know the answer to the question: What is Tai Chi? Since 2007 the Municipality of Montevideo decided to take that discipline to the beaches, Montevideo have become accustomed to recognize, but few who know what it is. Moreover, the information is not abundant even among those who practice it, although the latter obtained at least, and at first hand some of its health benefits. Is just that side which would explain much of the quantitative growth experienced by the Tai Chi in recent years. | But as often happens, the amount does not lead to transitive quality. Well executed, this discipline has a very positive impact. But if you do not respect the basic guidelines, you can complete the experience hurt. |
ORIGIN. |
Tai Chi and internal martial art born in a monastery in northern China and is based in Taoist philosophy. It is also an integral part of therapeutic Chinese medicine. The traditional way consists of 103 moves (or 108, depending on how you count) to be performed so bound and that is complicated as it progresses.
is slow, gentle movements which continually moves and absorbs energy. Something like a moving meditation. He explains Carolina Alegre, who along with Jorge Quiñones direct the Yang Style Tai Chi Chuan Academy Uruguay. Both are the first two Uruguayan graduate instructors (three in total) in the training centers and training of the Yang Family , one of five styles of the most popular discipline in the West. |
But Tai Chi does not end in the form. Includes therapeutic exercises, breathing techniques and other modalities that incorporate sword, sword and spear.
While it is a martial art, and therefore is useful as a defense, its expansion outside of China is directly related to the health virtues. | "What is done is to balance the Yin and Yang energies, that is what the Chinese call but that is nothing that we all have electromagnetic energy in the body that is generated by what we eat and breathe. If these two energies are balanced, no likely to get sick, "said Quiñones.
" The idea is to achieve a balance between mind, body and energy, "says Alegre
.
In his experience, a dedicated person, who also went to training class at home, get run those 103 movements a year and a half.
For Leonardo Rato, instructor and president of the Uruguayan Association of Tai Chi, adapt the diet is not an obligation." But a change without realizing the because your body starts to look a certain way and it acquires a different consciousness about the environment. Then there are things you just do not do so because they feel good, "illustrates. Among those" things "is junk food, smoking or sleeping a few hours." Let's say that creates a general welfare state that is addictive. One is to continue, not to stray too far, "he adds.
Performers.
half-closed eyes, frowns, gestures of concentration, almost trance, and other pleasure. - arms and hands that move from left to right, top to bottom, slow, very slow, like stroking the air with extreme tenderness. Every so often, the voice of Leonardo Rato interrupted the silence, that for an untrained audience is overwhelming at first and relaxing after a few minutes.
"Do not rush, enjoy the moment," whispers the instructor. The scene occurs in one of the outpatient clinics of the IM Tai Chi in the Diving Club. There and in that class, practitioners are all women over 60 years.
"It helped me greatly improve my back problems that not even feel it. I also learned to maintain correct posture and better sleep," illustrates Delfina about the benefits achieved.
"It gives you an incredible serenity and tremendous concentration in all areas of life," said Rosita, who also has fascinated that feels more nimble when walking. "I'll give you an example: I had to go to Costa Azul in the bus stop and I'm tired. I remembered I destrancar knees as if he had been sitting," he said.
In class on Monday at 8.30 am on the beach are also Pocitos most women, but are some men ages are more mixed. The testimonies here are on the same side, "I stress out," You're going head "," It feels harmony "among others.
Quiñones, Alegre and Rato agreed that interest in Tai Chi is spreading in Uruguay. The reasons? "Because there is more spread over the Internet, to activities on the beaches and the need to move to the Uruguayans," argues Alexis García, Republic Bank Club instructor who works at the beach Pocitos in agreement with the IM. (UCM is another of the companies that provide classes in Pocitos and Ramirez in the framework of the agreement).
"For many doctors today know the benefits and suggest it to patients," says Carolina Alegre.
"There is a cause," says Quinones, "the stress levels of Uruguayans are increasing, along with socio-cultural issues. This leads to look for something that somehow help you connect with yourself and regain calm. " Leonardo
Rato has a somewhat skeptical view of the phenomenon: "I am afraid that a large element of fashion." To illustrate the successes cited and subsequent failures in the popularity of sports such as Yoga, Reiki and Pilates. "Much will depend on the instructors, we can do well and capitalize on this, or it is a fad," he adds.
About the instructors, Quiñones and Alegre were concerned by some "distortions" in practice the martial art. They have 20 and 10 years of practice, travel to Buenos Aires each month and are strict in respecting the principles of the discipline.
- "You see people who make a soft gym or mix concepts and say they practice Tai Chi," says Alegre. "Besides the martial movements are irreplaceable because they are helping to stretch the ligaments, tendons and muscles. If I do something that is similar but without the proper alignment, not any of that work, "his colleague Quiñones. Meanwhile Alegre says in his high school students have been injured due to malpractice. This is a of the reasons that led the duo also involved in training of trainers.
Another interesting aspect of this Chinese art is that you can practice for people of all ages. "I always ask: Can you walk? Then you can do Tai Chi ", summarizes Rato. Obviously, if the person comes to injury is limited in some of the movements.
not have too many demands on their clothing, which should be loose so as not to restrict movement. Sports shoes it is strictly necessary. Quinones said that Barefoot is wrong practice also seen in Uruguay. Elderly in Tai Chi discovered a natural remedy for many ailments. Surely that virtue is not tempted too young, they have other more interesting sites that deal. But know that if you practice this discipline well and regularly, not only live longer but, even better, they will grow old in a state of health and mobility difficult to imagine for Western sedentary.
