Link to "Winning execution of applications
"No winning applications, only winning execution of applications", Stephen Hwa. Link is to a 3-minute video of BSC workshop, 2011 and this application:, I'm also back there teaching some push hands with David Brown and Mark Thomasson:
In the mirror, you can see Jason being uprooted and he struggles to rebalance. Classical Tai Chi applications can be seen in each and every move of one's study of Tai Chi Form (108 movements). One 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" .
