"No winning applications, only winning execution of applications"

"No winning applications, only winning execution of applications"


Classical Tai Chi applications can be seen in each and every move of one's study of Tai Chi Form (108 movements). One just needs to include a mental aspect of martial art intent or "Yi". In the video, you can see Jason allowing his arms to "crimp" (come close) to his abdomen as he pulls Hwa Laoshi. Jason did not do an internal movement where he could keep arms away from his own body and use "internal discipline" to turn at the waist. Note, I say "WAIST" .
