There is another 2 person activity that is interactive, starts with guided
movements or choreography and evolves to an intuitive, shared, moving
experience. It is tai chi push hands. Most practitioners of the tai chi form
don't move on to push hands in the US. Many more do in China.

Jim--
As a practitioner/player of both I generally agree, but I find two
essential differences, in tuishou (push hands) the object is to find the
duifang's (partner's) center and uproot him/her-- although many times
the game is played stopping just at that point to make the partner
aware--wher
And the two arts can be combined!

ja, ja, ja. I guess I'll have to take a boom box with some tango music to the
park next week!
Others have tried to combine it.
