Taichi push hands patterns, but performed in a way similar to WC chi sau,. But at it's essence -look at the body structure- this is best characterized as Duck Style Kung Fu.
@vocalhitman1 Thanks! BTW, I do think your propeller art looks interesting! Perhaps it was an unclear way to phrase it before, but actually I have a question: In the arts I've learned (mostly IMA), we're taught to stretch the lower back, meaning to straighten the arc of the lumbar region. Yet sometimes I see some ppl doing the opposite, jokingly called "duck posture", for illustrative purposes. So is there a specific reason for it or advantage by doing this? Just curious (and ALMOST unbiased) ;)
@piaten I see your meaning. Well, Circle Propeller is not strictly an "IMA" and is not a traditional form, therefore it may violate some principles of those said forms. In the same way a Wing Chun man may look at the trapping of JKD and conclude that it is incorrect. Well, yes if looked at from the perspective of Wing Chun then perhaps it is. That does not mean however that it is not practical or effective..
@piaten Many Kung Fu and Tai Chi sifu's will assert that during push hands the legs and feet should always be solid and rooted to the floor..other Sifu's believe that there should be more flexibility and movement in the legs. Who is right and who is wrong? Only practice will tell! One of the first lessons the student learns in Western boxing is to keep the hands up. Why then do so many high level boxers drop their hands and yet are still successful? Because their skill level enables them to!
This is nice! I created a "partnering" with some contempory dancers that are just the same approche. Thanks for the new tricks; with the elbow crossing side by side... I would like to learn more.
If the guy in black hits anyone with his head, his opponent WOULD be done. He has a huge-assed head. He must practice iron-skull kung fu.

@piaten Your comment is quite funny. I had a look at your "fighting/sparring" clips- they are very funny also :)

@piaten I should also state that Circle Propeller is Concerned with ACTION, MOVEMENT and MOTION. Natural body movement... :)
