The Tai Chi you see being practiced in the slow form, while beneficial, was pretty much a dance to enhance your chi but at the same time it hid the real purpose which was for combat. Check out the Hawaiian's Hula dance it is a martial art in disguise as were some of the Philippine martial arts and many others. Because they were outlawed by their conquering foes so they went underground with them and had to soften them up but when you're in combat you have to adapt and change accordingly.

This guy's kung fu is so tensed up, tai chi chuan should be relaxed and soft, not tensed up and extremely hard. He has a same problem with his wing chun... and the most sad thing is that he does not concentrate on philosophy, he just concentrates on fighting, and he is ruining an art like that...
@crapinbird Thanks, you see, I don't want to talk bad things about other people. But, when those people are ruining an ancient traditional art of Gongfu then we have to react to it. Gongfu should be relaxed and connected to our spirits, not tensed up and not connected to anything but fighting... It is sad to watch these videos...
@GuitarDestroyer77777 tai chi chuan should be slightly more tensed during combat, but he simply overdoes it here, but don't get me wrong, he is amazing at it, but he is far to tense even when he is going over forms or what ever it is called in that art.
I like how he turns up his intensity when demonstrating the applications. Its very entertaining.

@crapinbird In battle tai chi is much faster and agressive than in form, but his tai chi is like a stone, it should be like water

@crapinbird Yes, that is right, this guy must relearn tai chi and learn philosophy. That is the only way to get that darkness out of his head.
