Link: When one does external movement, they are not necessarily doing an internal movement.
This is even though you fool yourself into thinking that you are doing internal. Can I get you to think that you can move your arm without moving your arm? Well, you can if you can think outside the box with me for 4 minutes of video. Some things are just too subtle, however. Examples are live classes and even videos where one can repeat even a dozen times. The video however may well be the best "illusion" breaker. You really need to stop thinking in terms that "flashy" means better..."flashy" should be defined as illusionary. It's been hard as a teacher for me to realize Classical Tai Chi movements are just too darn subtle for many folks that can't think outside the box of their previous Tai Chi, Karate, etc. learning. Finally, this video is an illusion buster and hopefully will change everyone's mind about learning from video vs. live classes. Anyhow, who wants to take a live class in these current times?
