@littlecannon I see what you mean! Pulling like that is sometimes called "hanging like a dead pig at the slaughterhouse". While it can have some usefulness, in Taichi it only happens when the practioneer has messed up in one way or another, and is the exact opposite of what one should train and strive for. This is not all bad though: Yeah, sure it's beginner level, and there's no peng jin, but I see some good things too, so yeah, they got potential!

I'm joking, I see the apps there, it's just they're very basic and not that fluid. near the end it seems that the piece of land they're standing on is more important than posture, so in combat any good fighter would take advantage of that weakness.

Push hands is a co-operative training method and when you make it a competition of who can push/pull who in a fixed step, it looses what makes push hands a great teaching tool for application, awareness, timing, etc in an abstract/subconscious way.

I apologize, but is this tui shou or san shou. As the players are always in contact, it appears to be the former.
