With respect I have a question:

Will you cover 3 nails?

It is my understanding that Master WC3 stresses this as the true source of power generation. Perhaps a wider angle will permit better observation and understanding of 3nails?

you mislead everybody your doing yang style not chen style

[waynie11]

it IS yang style, his teacher's name is william chen, but he teaches yang style. It's not william's fault that his family name is Chen! google william cc chen, you'll see.

@jaccwas1 this form is actually william cc chen's modification of the yang style he learned from chen man ching. but it can be confused with the older, awesome chen style

You have a lot of heart.

Make your hands alive, and utilize more Peng throughout.

Nice root.

Yep, good grounding, very relaxed, but still a bit much shoulder movement for a CMC based form. Love it though.

I haven't seen Rudy before, but it looks like he's really got it. He stays rooted, he's moving with the energy.  William Chen is a fine teacher and looks like Rudy is too. This is one of the few Tai Chi clips here, along with original Chen Man Ching that I found, that I am keeping in favorites, in order to study back up on short form.

Thank you Shifu for posting. I learned this form from Shifu Suarez.
