Summary: Still a basic book on sensing hands
Comment: This book is very well written especially in the introductive chapters. The author considerations about the exercise are really great. Unfortunately, as a Tai Chi instructor, I was looking for something much more advanced in sensing (or most commonly "pushing") hands. Even though the work has been very well done, the pushing exercises are still introductive one. The use of the waists and the application of the "chan su shin" movement to the exercise are neither explained nor mentioned. As any Tai Chi person knows this is the key and the most important tip on sensing hand and generally speaking on all the tai chi movements. Anyway this book is the first one completely dedicated to the item and I really appreciate the author effort on approaching the sensing hand explanation in this work.

Summary: Excellent book for advanced Tai Chi Chuan students
Comment: Tai Chi Sensing Hands assumes the reader has some knowledge of Tai Chi Chuan and is able to apply the forms correctly. The basic sets of push hands are presented and then expanded with variations on these techniques designed to enlarge the sensitivity and responsiveness of the student. While not all different push hands styles are covered, the variations can be adopted to almost any style of push hands to challenge the players to new levels of expertise. The pictures and the text work together to lead the student to explore each technique, if the student has the ability to perform Tai Chi well. Without the ability to perform Tai Chi, this book is best left on the shelf until the reader is able to move according to the instruction.
