Form 7: Pie Shen Chui (Parry & Turn to Punch)

Pie Shen is also known as  "Shan Shen" ,both translated as "parry" . As the name implies, Pie Shen Chui (Parry & Tum to Punch) of tai chi boxing refers to the slightly horizontal attack on the opponent with the fist by taking advantage of the centrifugal force produced by the arched movement of the fist, using the waist as pivot.

Detailed Explanation
Lower Limbs: Step the left foot obliquely left forward to form into a left bow stance.
Upper limbs: Parry and punch with the left fist after it turns before the abdomen, with the palm side of fist obliquely upward and at the height of the head, and position the right hand to the inside of the left forearm, eyes looking at the left fist.

Key Point
When parrying and punching, use the waist to drive the arm, turn and press down the forearm with the shoulder joint as pivot, in order to increase the strength of the fist.
