Greetings Wu Wei,

That was a very interesting essay.
Thanks for sharing that.
I enjoyed the read tremendously.

I found one portion very interesting where the stress is put on spirit first, then Qi, followed by the body lastly.

Best regards,
Psalchemist.

Hi Folks,

I'm glad you found the article. Li Ya Xuan is my great grand teacher. Im a disciple of this lineage (7th gen from Yang Lu Chan). I have a link to photos of his postures on the "favorite Links" page of the website I made for my teacher and I. Excellent push hands links (video clips)too.
