Yang Family Tai Chi Discussion Board

i have seen plenty more than just that guy. alot of people chew up all tradition, and label themselves as 'taiji masters'. its sad that many begin following those type of people. ill never refer to them as Masters, Teachers or anything that holds even the slightest amount of respect.

cooL,

Q#1:whats refined carbs? whats thier source?

Q#2:whats Qi gong about? ive heard of it, dont know what it is tho...

thanks for the help

hi! i am trying to come back from a lazy slump (that has lasted for nearly 2 years!) and i find it difficult to get into an energetic, focused frame of mind. after stretching, and some light moving around, i still feel slopy and unfocused. which makes it hard to be productive. what do you do to 'get...

ok. thanks for the clarification

oh my, i cant believe i didnt put the URL's... sorry http://www.yangfamilytaichi.com/ubb/frown.gif here they are: (main page) http://www.fushengyuan-taichi.com.au/index.htm (worded lineage) http://www.fushengyuan-taichi.com.au/Introduction.htm (Yang lineage tree) http://www.fushengyuan-taichi.com.au...

Mr. Yang Jun, i have come across this webpage stating 'AUTHENTIC YANG FAMILY TAI CHI'. in just the introduction page alone, it speaks of (quote)"great Grand Master Fu Zhong Wen"(end quote) as being the lineage holder of Yang Tai Chi. it goes into this more, but it seems odd to me, cause th...

heLLo! darn, can stop eating. but i gotta eat right. i'm getting fat & lazy!!!! can anyone suggest some stuff to eat for; meals, snacks, and best of all nibble food(yay!)..? i just eat anything. which i can feel dragging me closer to the ground. ugh. i have very little energy most of the time. a...

heLLo! first off ..what a neophyte? i think its a newbie, am i wrong? i just started Tai Chi as well, 2 months so far! i plan on it being with me till i escape this world. it does have great stress-relieving capabilities! man i feel better all ready http://www.yangfamilytaichi.com/ubb/tongue.gif my ...

heLLo! about the Defend&Strike @ the same time.. i agree with that totally. But it's very hard to do 'instinctively'. i suppose with years of training, you can pull it off. i've seen that in WingChun tho. about the MA practitioners being these healthy hardbodies strolling the streets, sounds to ...

these are good analogies. i would have never thought of it like that. but it makes perfect sense.

like second nature ..

in regards to the QuickTime movie of Fu Zhongwen,

it seems to me like he's performing them in a lazy state.

Is he suposed to look this way? if so, why?

This is a contrast to Yang style, no ?

btw,

i figured my counting was off, and its really about what one sees as a complete move.

this must have thrown me off the most. but i get the idea now

thanks for the replies!! helping me a bunch! i was concerned about the 'watered down' practices that many talk about. but i see that i', following the right path. Mr. Horiaco stated: [The most important thing in studying the "Postures" is not the "external appearance", but to gra...

heLLo! ok. my name is nick. anyways, when i found out my college was offering Tai Chi for kinesiology credit, i signed up. we are now in our 6th week of class. i started researching what we've been learning, and have come up with plenty of variations of forms. its all rather confusing. My teacher, i...
