This is a short form I taught to spa and resort guests. It draws from elements of the Guang Ping Tai Chi set (an unusual Yang variation). Demonstrated for my regular Tai Chi class.

Music was not invented, it was discovered. It was there before the discovery. Nothing is more natural than music. Nature is music. It is nature singing through us when we play music.
You are refering to the heel first step on the push on Grasp the Bird's Tail, correct? With the emphasis on long stances, the stepping by necessity is heel-to-toe. You end up with what I call a "foot stomp" instead of a graceful step otherwise; the overall movement begins to look jerky. I also use the "rolling step" (forward or back) to develop the silk reeling energy/power for a posture. It's my own training gimmick.
Stop me if I'm wrong, but aren't you losing any power generation training thru practicing the form by stepping heel first? e.g. your front foot lands together at once vs. heel & then toe or you lose any power generated by the T-stance.
Hi...yes, they are differnt styles, each coming through the two sons of Yang Lu-Chan. The Guang Ping traces through Yang Ban-Hou, where all other Yang forms pass through Yang Jian-Hou.
