Yang Family Tai Chi Discussion Board

Hi Louis and Yslim! I think that in the first row, the lady standing in front of Grand Master Yang Zhenduo is his wife, Ms. Hu Ruidi. Merry Christmas to all of of you! Rubén MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU TOO, RUBEN. IT IS NICE TO SEE YOU ARE ABLE TO DO MORE THAN WHAT MR. LOUIS WAS ASKED; " Louis Swai...

[quote="Audi"]Greetings yslim and Dan, I would like to resume our discussion of Taiji. First I should make clear a few of my own assumptions. HI AUDI WELCOME BACK FROM THE HARM'S WAY. "IT IS GOOD TO HAVE YOU BACK WHERE YOU BELONG". First, these are very difficult concepts to put ...

Yslim, My take on this is long and detailed and would most likely bore most people to tears. I am working with several people on my theories of hip/leg usage in conjunction with the waist, how it all works, why it works, how to do it, etc, but they're not really ready for public viewing yet. I am n...

Yslim, I just saw your earlier post asking about Cheng and Deng. This may help: http://www.yangfamilytaichi.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=622 It will at least give you good translations for the words. I read an article that the Louisville Yang Cheng Fu Center Director Carl Meeks handed out to ...

...He explains this by saying that Split means "quick," "short," "twisting" and/or "going in different directions." It is explanations like these that have lead me to introduce the word "snap" in my translations. Ben, Audi & everyone else, As I ...

Greetings, Who can spot Yang Zhenduo and Fu Zhongwen in this group photo? Enjoy, Louis HI MR SWAIM, THAT SURE BE EASY. WITH MY KUNG FU EYE MASTER YANG IS THE 4TH MAN FROM THE THE LEFT/THE YANG SIDE. BUT THIS WON'T COUNT AS A DOUBLE YANG/WEIGHT, BECAUSE HE IS ON MY YI'S LEFT. HA HA . AND MASTER FU I...

Yslim, I just saw your earlier post asking about Cheng and Deng. This may help: http://www.yangfamilytaichi.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=622 It will at least give you good translations for the words. HI BOB, I THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ALL YOUR TIME AND EFFORT TO NARROWING DOWN MY QUOTE THAT YO...

Dear Bob, Don't understand the procedure. Stand in front of the wall, both hands on the floor and in a bow stance? got lost there. My gypsum wall collapse. Answer please. Please. Cheers. Isaac Hi Isaac, I also asked Bob the same question but in a different way..... Re: Tai Chi on a beam by yslim » ...

Hello everyone, Sorry I've been away so long. I've had an interesting couple of months. Also, my first grand child was born Monday. I've been a tad busy. Let's see... Yslim, If you read the quote you quoted, I corrected that hands do go beyond feet in both styles I've trained. My "rule of thum...

Hi Audi,

I just realized you are from N.J. ! We are praying you and your love ones have the upper hand with "Sandy".
wish you all all the best!

ciao with love,
from all of us

Greetings yslim, THE YIN DOESN'T REQUIRED THE EXISTENCE OF YANG TO EXIST AND THE YANG DOESN'T REQUIRED THE EXISTENCE OF YIN TO BEING EXIST. THEY ARE TWO SEPARATED INDIVIDUAL WORKING AS A POLARITY PAIR, BUT EACH HAVE IT OWN NATURE. BUT THIS "MIDDLE" DOES NOT EXIST WITHOUT THE EXISTENCE THI...

This is Cheng and Deng. One leg pushes, one leg pulls. One leg sends, one leg receives. One is Yin, one is Yang. Etc, etc. In this way your power, your energy, is generated by your legs. HI BOB, I FOUND THIS THREAD OF YOUR ( SEPT.4, 2012 8:00 PM ) HAVE A LOT TO OFFER AND PONDER ON LINE FOR LINE FOR...

I made a terrible mistake in my posting. I meant to say, "elbows should not go beyond toe". Not hands, elbows. HI BOB, THAT MAKE GOOD TAIJI SENSE FOR "SONG THE SHOULDER AND 'SINK' THE ELBOW". I THINK THAT WILL KEEP THE ELBOW'S PHYSICAL LIMITATION IN CHECK AND NOT TO OVER REACHIN...

My question is about Double Weightedness as it relates to feet and hands. I have been taught and I have only found one reference to this is writings, that the weighted leg is the opposite to the weighted arm. So, if the right leg is weighted, the left arm is wieghted, and so forth. HI JWALT, MY LAR...

Greetings Mr. Lim, Regarding: JUST BE AWARE OF THE MEANING OF "STOP". IN THE TAIJI THIS WORD IS A NO-NO! MUST BE AVOID! THE MEANING OF "KNOWING", IF YOU THINK, THAT SHOW YOU ARE NOT IN THE 'KNOWING.' I agree. I should be more careful, because 止 here doesn't really mean "sto...
