單鞭 Single Whip

很多練太極的人都知道"單鞭",但極少有人知道為什麼在打單鞭的時候,有一隻手要拱成勾.這是因為當我們這麼做的時候,這個勾狀的手勢就好像是個閘道,可以確保內力可由另一隻手發出.

Thousands of Taijiquan practitioners have performed “Single Whip”, but not many know why one hand is held in a hook.  It is to consolidate the internal force so that it will be exploded out in the other hand. If both hands are in open palms, the internal force will be spread out in both hands instead of being channeled to the palm in one hand with the other hand in a hook as a “brake”.
