Re: Ranking System

Hi Audi, How is it going? I really don,t mind sharing the misinformation which was revealed by spoken words from someone who spent most of his life in Chinese education. Not me. As for me, I am like a fish out of the water even when conversing in Mandrian. During one of our lessons in the Yang Cheng...

Ranking System

Just wanting to clarify the statement on ranking of the Yang Chengfu system. It was mentioned that one will be qualified to enter the ranking arena if one is 8 years and above. Now, what does this mean? Does it mean that a child who is 8 years and above and have been practicing yang Tai chi for one ...

Re: Yang Family Dao Questions

Lao Pei,

Suddenly it makes sense. Thank you for the kind contribution.
Just like Bob, I will explore these techniques. Hope I don't hurt any one.

If I may add a thought, I feel the ribbons attached to the ring has a more deadly application.
It is an extention of the Dao.

Cheer.

Isaac

Re: Huan Yuan

What goes into the mind of a person who is meditating? Sex, religion, politics? Or simply SRP. Well, I believe, huancayo yuen is more than just a number as in 103 . I believe it is the universal accumulation of the past performance. I believe it is more than just a closing. I believe it has some app...

Re: Yang Family Dao Questions

Dear Pasek, Oh, that ring. The simple analogy of that ring is that it is used to tie the red and green ribbon. Why red and why green? god knows. Maybe some clan uses these color to identify themselves and also a risk management thingi. They don't slash their own kind in battles. As for red... it cou...

For us 5 is enough....6 will see us having our back hitting the wall or a cut on our back. Imagine executing six and moving on to You Nu Chuan Suo. (not much power to pierce...
