Form

Definition:

A structured sequence of coordinated movements designed for the systematic practice and embodiment of Taijiquan principles.


Usage:

  • As a noun: “Wu-Style includes 37-Step, 45-Step, and 83-Step Forms.”

Additional Notes:

Within each style, a variety of Forms are derived from a foundational standard Form, evolving over time to meet the changing needs and interpretations of practitioners.

In Taijiquan, Form serves not merely as choreography but as a medium for developing sensitivity, coordination, and the understanding that all movements are initiated and driven by Yi.
