Pushing/Sensing Hands with Nils Klug


Event Details


Union Instructor organising: Tina Faulkner Elders

Main Instructor: Nils Klug

Pushing Hands, also called feeling or sensing hands, is a partner exercise of Tai Chi.

The workshop title "sensing hands“ underlines the yin (soft) aspect in training. The workshop will thus follow the questions of "how to develop a soft approach“ and "how to answer to pressure with softness“. This approach will also touch upon many valuable connections to Tai Chi, Qigong and also daily life in general.

"Sensing“: Listening and Speaking with our Hands
The focus of the single exercises will be on yielding, a soft response to pressure and stress. Giving way while protecting ourselves, we will practice our listening skills (ting jin).

And last, but not least: To be a good partner is a key aspect of Pushing Hands! We will therefore work on a strong, coordinated and focused Push, otherwise known as "speaking clearly“, ie with intention (yi).

Nils Klug has been organising the International Push Hands Meeting in Hannover since 2001.
