IMG 0106Across the great river #martialarts#taijiquan#taichichuan

If we can borrow Jack from our studio audience, if I'm here and I try to turn and push him back, like just forget about it, right? If I push like I just said, it pushes me up and away because I'm not considering yin and yang. So now he's attacking me like I'm trying to make this action and he's meeting me with strength. I'm trying to make strength going up. So that's double yang, not yin and yang. So there's no tai chi occurring at the point of contact. Now here I'm wound, but I'm releasing. So even though he's strong, this arm is turning to ying. And now I'm going to press my left foot.

Opposite hand, opposite foot. Changing manqing would say across the great river, I think, was his terminology. So if I come into here and I press both feet and try to turn back. If I press my right foot, right hand. No, but I I'm here and I press left foot and suddenly. And you see this didn't push out cuz I didn't push with it. It was wound and I let it unwind. And because you were pushing on it, it unwound here instead of there, which would have been better.

>> But So now let's He's here. If he presses up with both feet, just kill yourself. If you press up right foot, right hand, kill yourself. Rise up. Press the left foot. Thanks for catching me.
