The creators truncated the traditional family style t&#8217;ai chi forms to 24 postures; taking about six minutes to perform and to give the beginner an introduction to the essential elements of t&#8217;ai chi ch&#8217;uan, yet retain the traditional flavor of traditional longer hand forms (in general, 88-108 postures). Henceforth, this form was avidly promoted by the People\u2019s Republic of China for general exercise, and was also taught to internees in Communist \u201cre-education\u201d camps. Due to this official promotion, the 24-form is most likely the t&#8217;ai chi-form with the most practitioners in China and the world over (though no surveys have been performed).<\/p>\n<p>Source: Wikipedia<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post_footer clearfix\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"post_footer clearfix\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"post_footer clearfix\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"post_footer clearfix\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"post_footer clearfix\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"post_footer clearfix\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"post_footer clearfix\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"post_footer clearfix\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"post_footer clearfix\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"post_footer clearfix\"><\/div>\n<p>LET&#8217;S TAKE A PICTURE TOGETHER!<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to disappear (completely): Uniformity \/ Practice 2 (Documentation)\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/144843619?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1718\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/files\/2015\/10\/MG_8287-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"_MG_8287\" width=\"643\" height=\"428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/files\/2015\/10\/MG_8287-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/files\/2015\/10\/MG_8287-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/files\/2015\/10\/MG_8287-210x140.jpg 210w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/files\/2015\/10\/MG_8304.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1722\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/files\/2015\/10\/MG_8304-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"_MG_8304\" width=\"643\" height=\"964\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/files\/2015\/10\/MG_8304-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/files\/2015\/10\/MG_8304-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/files\/2015\/10\/MG_8304-210x315.jpg 210w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"video_meta\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"video_meta\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UNIFORM (uni|form\u00a0\/\u02c8ju\u02d0n\u026af\u0254\u02d0m\/) A) UNIFORM (adjective) 1) Remaining the same in all cases and at all times; unchanging in form or character 2) Denoting a garment forming part of a person\u2019s uniform: B) UNIFORM (noun) 1) The distinctive clothing worn by members of the same organization or body or by children attending certain schools Source: Cambridge &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/2015\/12\/11\/practice-1-uniformity\/\" class=\"more-link\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">\u201ePractice 1: Uniformity\u201c <\/span>weiterlesen<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":1714,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2474","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2474","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/49"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2474"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2474\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2562,"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2474\/revisions\/2562"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1714"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2474"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2474"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.zhdk.ch\/transculturalcollaboration\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2474"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
