Abstract

The theoretical system represented by Zhang Sanfeng and Wang Zongyue can be summarized as “Chinese Taiji Health Preservation Theory”. This is mainly reflected in Zhang Sanfeng’s “Taijiquan classics” and Wang Zongyue’s “Taijiquan theory” and other works. As far as the philosophical basis is concerned, Chinese Taiji Health Preservation theory is mainly rooted in the Book of Changes and Laozi’s Philosophy. This is mainly manifested in: The origin comes from Taiji, Taiji in me, Method of Yin and Yang, Dynamic and static are reciprocal causation, Go with the flow as object, Aiming at enlightenment and so on.
