Drücken - C'hi, Qi or Ji
Sanfter, aber bestimmter Druck, der den Gegner aus dem Gleichgewicht bringt. Im Idealfall vom Gegner nicht realisierbar. Ji ist i.d.R. eine Vorbereitung für eine darauf folgende Technik.

Chi or Ji Ching is pressing and receiving energy. This is an offensive force delivered by following the opponent's energy, by squeezing of sticking forward.

Form movements: Grasping the Sparrow's Tail - palm pressing on forearm.

"What is the meaning of Pressing Energy? It functions in two ways: (1) The simplest
is the direct method. Advance to meet (receive) the opponent, and then adhere and
close in one action, just like in elbowing. (2) To apply reaction force is the indirect
method. This is like a ball bouncing off a wall or a coin tossed onto a drumhead,
rebounding off with a ringing sound."
