e/Silk reeling

Information
has gloss	eng: Silk reeling (pinyin chánsīgōng, Wade-Giles chan² ssu1 kung1 纏絲功), also called winding silk energy chánsījìng (纏絲勁), refers to a set of neigong movement principles expressed in traditional styles of tai chi chuan, but especially emphasised by the Chen and Wu styles of tai chi chuan. The name derives from the metaphorical principle of "reeling the silk from a silk worms cocoon". In order to draw out the silk successfully the action must be smooth and consistent without jerking or changing direction sharply. Too fast, the silk breaks, too slow, it sticks to itself and becomes tangled. Hence, the silk reeling movements are continuous, cyclic patterns performed at constant speed with the "light touch" of drawing silk. Silk reeling is trained in solo forms and stances as well as in pushing hands with a partner.
