Tai Chi Martial Art Applications : Tai Chi: Wrist Grab Defense

[Blackrose50772]

this is good to enhance my technic on weapon defense

this is a good technique. You should also try it with keeping your wrist on the same place but instead turn your elbow down. That works good against strong opponents :)

This is a really good application. If you are a normal citizen and just want to get away you can use it. If you are a police officer or security gard you can use it to lock him up and then cuff him.

hmm, looks very similar to a basic variation of aikido's katatetori dai-ikkyo. it's nice to be able to notice the universal threads amongst the different martial arts. thanks for sharing.

No, katatetori dai-ikkyo is a variation of this. Remember Taiji is the mother art.
