Tai Chi Movements : Tai Chi: Yang Style White Crane Spreads Wings

[ncigntujyang]

We cannot says who is right or wrong when come to Martial arts. I been studying few styls including Taekwodo and it is all about individule who be able to use it in the right way. When we talk about kicking ass....I can use my 5th black belt Taekwodo to kick everyone like playing ball...but I also realized that my WingChun also very effective intern of defending a big opponor. My Tai Chi also help me ballance between soflness and hardness spot when come to combate.

I have been studying large frame yang style for about 7 months now and what he is showing us is not how I have been taught, and, if you check YouTube for yang sifu lineage video, it does not seem to be the form of the movement that is being demonstrated in those examples.

Yeah,this helps with the hand movements,not the lower body though....

Dear Sharesomeshit,

We all like to think that we are exclusive.

Non è vero. Non è fatto molto bene. Perché non osservare come lo esegue Tung hu ling

Poorly done. Yang family si-fus would smack you for this form of white crane.

[ilyearer]

instead of just saying "poorly done" why not try and point out what he's done wrong. otherwise, it's rather hard for someone to accept your statement.

i'm not familiar with yang style taiji, but right now, he's showing more expertise than you.

[sharesomeshit]

I believe that it is not hard to accept my statement for practicioner of Yang family Tai Ji, I really have no need to tell what he has done wrong. I just said ''poorly done'' because it is poorly done and the other practicioners of my style would agree.

[ilyearer]

it would be easy to accept, if you gave me some backing of how you know he's doing it poorly. the easiest way to do that is say some of the things he's done wrong (and why not do the nice thing and offer him some tips while you're at it?)

at the moment, you don't even have enough to give me initial plausibility enough that i can believe you. doesn't say that you are wrong or right (which is the biggest problem) AND i don't know that i can take your word for it.

Remember he is teaching the move to someone learning it. This is good teaching.

All I would say is that the right arm does not just "scoop" (his words) down.

The right arm follows the tuning of the hips as everything follows the hips as they rotate.

The hips move and everything follows in sequence.

The arms do not move by themselves, they follow like heavy ropes.

The other issue is grounding. Without grounding our structure is week.

But this is a quick demo. It is good.
