Sylvia training receive and release

ylvia training receive and release Sylvia is training receive and release in this footage. I push towards her ,through her arms , and she lets the pressure go through her arms and releases it down into her feet. She then presses her feet while raising her crown point simultaneously . This action sends me away . An error is to push back at the contact point or run away from the contact point instead, she should just present some stillness . Thanks for watching!

Training connect , receive , release

Training connect , receive , release The following footage shows me working with Alex to develop a skill. Alex pushes into my arms with the strength to attempt to move me. I receive the strength into my foot letting Alex compress my Qi. And I allow my hips to fall away from my head, stretching my spine.. I then press the rear foot, lightly triggering the release of Chi in harmony with the unstretching of my spine. Thanks for watching!

Send them out, then pull them back in

Send them out, then pull them back in In combat, you might send someone out breaking their balance, and then pull them back into a strike increasing the power of a strike. I pulled him back in in this instance to prevent him from crashing into my counter, but this is something that you want to cultivate Thanks for watching!
