Agreed, six harmonies seem really well observed. Just goes to show the truly powerful nature of xing yi

good point Juan. It just cracks me up when ppl talk smack about MA vids here. They usually miss the forest for the trees.

I really like this teacher's form and applications - very connected, sharp and powerful

(continue)3, elbows can not pass the range or elbow, it is ture. for sure i know that. but in some situation this rule can be broken. and more precisely, the elbow should not PASS knee!!!

1, students have to learn how to keep balance in strick. but they should not stop trying this kind of technique eventhough they can loss balance in the beginning. good balance skills come from practice not from avoiding certain techniques. so this video is for practice purposes, this is why sometimes, they initiated the movements even it was not the situation, but it is the way of training.2, being able to strike with shoulders but with power is definitely higher level.(continue)

Inside is evident outside if you know what you look for. Front weighted is fine and nessesary but unbalanced is not and leaving a leg in front of your opponent can not be justified.So charging in with the shoulder is high level? You should only use it if it is closest but you could have struck with elbow or hand from that angle. Shoulder strike is good if you are close enough but not running past the elbow(!) - surely you at least know this?

their idea is allright.curious: how can you judge inside of outside? what do you mean inside? can you see inside? can you show me some demo of inside?i have been doing it for more than 30 years, i still do not get it... please help me if you CAN.

you are from taiwan, the island of the place where people know how to talk a lot but lack of real action or demonstration.bengquan front weighted is nothing wrong at all, it is the transition of that movements. to hengquan, you said it is entirely wrong position with the shoulder... you must be a beginner: strick with the shoulder is the higher level. seven stars? you are talking about tai chi or xing yi? why cannot use the closest star in your opinion?students made mistake but (cotinue)
