  • MMMM change your teacher

  • ya normally is for the beginner to learn.

  • I am taichi beginner, nevertheless this is not only hunchbacked. This practitioner has got it backwards. The movement is supposed to start in the body and then pour into hands till the very fingertips. He does the opposite which turns the powerful coiling and spiralling into charade. Not to mention the awkward weight distribution. Well, lets hope my teacher wont let me end up at this phase after months of practice

  • I am no master, but it seems to me that you are looking down a little too much. This makes your back hunch over--and so that your posture is not right and thus inhibiting the flow of your chi! I really like the fluidity and grace of your movements, however! Very beautiful!!!

  • Interesting. I have to pick up some of that in my own style (at low rate and with more mobility in the back)

  • Yes, the forms are practiced slow by beginners, fast by intermediates, and slow again by experts in order to achieve maximum muscle control and strength output. Simply put, the strikes of an taichi practicioner is like that of waves on the water- freeflowing during movement and explosive upon contact.
