Push the basic bow.

Finalize.

Lower the bow, set the root.

Lower the bow, turn the circle.

In this training, there are two major
purpose.

The first one is to circle your waist
and your knee and also ankles.

When you do that, the other one is
circling and the other one is twisting.

Circling is simply very simple.

The leg you move and circle the other
side and put the weight on this side so

you have a strength on this leg and also
on this side. You can see the ankle and

the knee and the waist has to be loose
so you can stretch very easily.

and circle very easily.

The second one, actually the body you
turn.

So in this case, you can see the body
how it twists to the side and circle to

the other side. You twist it and turn
and circle.

This kind of exercise will help you to
build up the foundation of these three

sections, your ankle, your knee, and hip
joints.

When these three sections are strong,
their foundation, your routine will be

strong. Okay, next we're going to add
the...

few people to perform this and I'll try
to point out if they make some mistake

turn

body to the side

And the other side.

Okay, so in this movement, you can see
the way they are doing that is not

complete. Go, you see, all the way,
almost all the way here. And circle as

as you can. That's why you have the
strength.

The second, this one should not be
backwards.

Like this kind of strength is not as
good.

So this kind of stance is good. So the
body continues upright until the butt,

you know, the hip area gets out.

Okay. Then also when you see the second
one, when they do that turn, this one

should be turned as far as you can. So
as far as you can. Then you turn, and

this one has to turn as far as you can.

That's why you can build up those three
sections, your ankle, your knee, and hip

joint very nicely.

Okay. The same thing for this one.

Okay, so you can see it's not easy. It
takes a while for you to build up these

strengths. Once you have these three
-section strengths, very strong, you

very good routine.

Dan Zhuang Bricks have been commonly
used in Chinese martial arts for

routine and centering training.

The reason for that is so simple.
Because usually you stand on the ground,

mind, the root, is built from the bottom
of your feet to the ground.

But once you stand on the top of the
brick, your mind cannot be between the

brick and your feet. It has to be under
the brick.

Because if your mind is here, it can
easily fall.

Because the reason the mind has to be
under the brick is to build a connection

between the brick and the ground.

So that means the feeling will get
deeper.

Once you can go like this good, then you
start learning to do this way.

If you can go this way good, then you
can try to do this way.

When you go here, you can see the mind
has to be here.

If it's really still very good, then you
can go two bricks this way.

In this case, that means the mind has to
be on the bottom of the brick while you

stand on the top of the brick.

Really, really good, then you go to the
three.

But if you can stand on the three
bricks, at the same time you can

kinds of movements, then that means the
mind is very deep all the way to here.

but of course that's very difficult it's
very dangerous because when you fall it

can injure yourself easily because the
reason i highly recommend the beginner

start with a brick like this it's easier
and without too much danger

so once you practice that on the ground
for example

you practice on the ground for the
circling training this one you shift the

here and you shift the leg here and
shift the leg here I shift like here for

this kind of circling training, and also
for the body twisting training.

After you finish on the ground, you can
feel such a good foundation, then you

start to stand on the brick.

The same thing, stand on the brick, this
is the easiest one.

Okay, so you stand like this, you get
down.

Again, you have to shift it, move to
this side, and slowly go to this side,

go this side. Again, you can move back
the other way around.

see it's very dangerous if you don't
know how to feel the bottom and then you

lose concentration so you turn the body
turns and body turn and body turn

so when you do this kind of training the
mind has to be all the time on the

bottom of your brick so in this case you
can build up the connections okay so

let's uh if you can do that with brick

That was this way, and then go this way,
and go two or three.

Then get harder and harder, okay?

That'll be the first section for this.

Before you stand on a brick, the first
thing we try to do is try to practice

standing on the ground.

The first time, try to build the
endurance of your hip joints, your knee

and also your ankle joints.

So this one very commonly called horse
stance, or called ma bu.

So this stance is very simple. Two feet
parallel.

face forward the same time you can see
body is upright the head head is

suspended the butt has to The butt has
to tuck in. So in this case, that means

this stands.

You should be able to stand there for
about five minutes to ten minutes

moving. So in this case, you build up
the endurance of these three sections.

Endurance training in Tai Chi training
is so important, especially these three

sections. It will help you to build up a
very firm root on the bottom.

So first, I press this one for about
five, ten minutes, and later you learn

stand on the brick.

So next, we're going to show you how to
stand on the brick.

For the endurance training, remember,
this is a whole stance.

This whole stance, we try to build the
endurance of the hip and calf, and also

build the strength for the ankle, for
the knee, and hip joints.

After you train this one for a long
time, become so strong, the feeling is

deep, then again you stand on the brick.

Again, you build this kind of strength
and go all the way down until your body

can stay forward and body upright.

If you can do this right, then start
going this way.

Of course, this way becomes harder.

So when you do this one, you try the one
leg first until you feel comfortable.

Then go to the other side.

When you go here, just squat down.

Again, now the mind has to be on the
bottom of the brick. The body stand

Stand there. Start with five minutes to
ten minutes first.

Slowly until you can increase for half
an hour.

Okay? Again, once you finish this one,
then you can start going.

This way.

And after that, it's this way.

Okay?

In this training, you need two

persons. From the two persons, you can
sense each other's center.

At the same time, sense his root.

The whole purpose of this training is
just like competition.

You try to destroy each other's center
and root. At the same time, you try to

protect yourself.

so you need a partner to practice this
one for example now i practice with a

machine

So, from this kind of training, you can
see both sides have to protect the root

and the center at the same time. And you
have to sense each other. At the same

time, you cannot resist.

Once you resist, it can be easily used
for your partner to take you off

Okay, so this exercise is very
important.

Once you finish it with the pulling with
the opponent like this on the ground,

then you start practice on the brick as
well because this one more like a

competition. The mine has to be on the
bottom of the brick.

Your mine is on the top, the brick is
going to fall.

Okay, because the reason is so
important.

If you can play with partner with the
brick go this way or two, then both of

got to be very, very good.

Because otherwise it can fall easily.

Okay, now let's show a little bit on
this kind of easy one. So go here.

No, no, even that still not easy.

Okay, so from here, that's why it starts
searching for each other.

Yeah, he got a good root, good center.

I'll try to get him off.

Body.

More.

Okay.

Yeah, so this kind of training, you have
to really concentrate.

Yeah, but sometimes it's like a game.

It's for fun, but be careful.

In this training, it's very important
that you learn how to lose up the waist.

And in order to lose up the waist, the
first one you have to lose up the hip

joints area.

So because this reason, this kind of
exercise is important.

The first thing you learn how to move
your lower back backwards.

At the same time, you learn how to
circle.

While at the same time, keep your head
suspended, the body upright.

So from this kind of movement, you can
see my waist area, my hip area become

very loose.

So usually you train this one for a long
time.

And you go the other side.

Every time you learn how to lose this
area, then this area can neutralize your

opponent's power coming up, try to
destroy your root easily.

So this exercise is important.

After that, the body starts rotating to
the side way.

We rotate to the side way, you can face
this side.

At the same time, continue to lose up
these two joints area.

So you can see, in order to build up
this good root, you have to have this

place. The hip joints, the knee, and
also the ankle, three sections, have to

very strongly supported.

At the same time, the waist area has to
be completely loosened. So in this case,

you can easily move.

So of course, you try to move the other
side.

The same concept. After that, you move
the other side. The whole concept, you

try to recondition all the muscles and
tendons here to support the whole

So you look at the front side. Usually I
practice with one hand on the front,

one hand on the back. So it is easier
for you to feel the waist movement.

So from this kind of movement, you can
see that's how I move.

And then throw it into the front.

And go to the other side.

Okay. Now we try to see, have a few
people, a few students demonstrate for

one and see.

and even if they make some mistakes.

Good, now move to the other side.

Continue to give your waist loosening.

Good. Now turn the body to the side, to
the right hand side.

Again, do the circling.

Okay, and then circle to the other side.

Good. Alright.

So you can look at, among these four
people they demonstrate, only one, the

really turns, and they turn to the side.

It's important when you turn to the
side, you don't turn halfway. That means

never develop the muscle and tendon
here.

So when you circle, you have to turn all
the way to this side. So in this case,

it's still this way, so you have to turn
this side. Actually, only one person

inside. Later, when you watch the
videotape again, try to point out, see

the one. I don't want to tell you who.

So you can see from here how you turn
the body completely to the side.

So instead of just like that, that means
you never have training for the

twisting. Because a lot of times in the
pushing hand practice, you need this

body twisted as far as you can. So it
cannot just go halfway, because in this

case your body is still locking.

Only in this place you can turn easy,
like this angle, then you can neutralize

the coming power.

One of the main purposes of the training
in the Tai Chi pushing hand is you have

a firm root, has the loose and the waist
is loose and the spine is soft.

So because this training, so remember,
this training on the ground and this

spine movement, the same time you have a
firm root on the ground.

After you practice for a while, you have
all the requirement criteria needed.

They stand on the brick.

We stand on the brick, the same concept.

You have to stand on the brick at the
same time move the body, the same time

root has to build all the root to the
bottom of your brick.

And this one becomes much harder. So you
have to stabilize yourself first.

And at the same time, you have to
concentrate.

It's very difficult that you are talking
at the same time if you're doing this

one because the mind starts not
concentrating.

So from here, the first one is this kind
of movement.

You can see I can move this one much
easier.

So why is this much easier? Because I
still have a firm root. But at the same

time, my body, my spine can move soft.
My chest can act in easily.

Then the hardest one is this one.

because when you do this one you can see
the weight is not evenly distributed on

both bricks so that's why i have to be
very careful and still have the same

you have to put the

feeding on the bottom of your brick all
the time at the same time you can turn

the body to the side and go to turning

You have to be careful when you practice
the horn, be careful.

When you stand up, it's very
comfortable.

It's only when you squat down, then your
body's distribution on the weight

becomes uneven.

That's the reason you have to bring up
that kind of sensitivity, so you have

good sense.

Stand back, or kicking

back, has been commonly used in Chinese
martial arts.

even the western boxing that's because
this one can be imagined as part of your

opponent your enemies so from here you
learn so for example this one's for the

waist twisting training it's very
important to build up the foundation of

good root and with a good twisting power
and manifest into opponent of course

when you use that this one of course
dead it's not alive so because recently

it's easier for you to practice without
worry too much this is the beginning

steps So all the idea is to try to build
a good firm root and good ways of

twisting power and manifest in the back.

So one of the exercises is so simple.
Once you go here, twist this like an

enemy's elbow or his shoulder or even
the body. So from here, the body, you

twist it. Then you twist it. Then you
twist it. At the same time, you can use

this one called buckling. This buckling.
Once it's up on the bottom, so it's

hard to make him fall.

So at the same time, you go this way or
go this way.

so treating this like a really enemies
so usually kind of exercise they call

body twisting of course this hand can be
here can be higher it can be low so

depends where you are so like this one
your your opponent's waist area then the

chest area or elbow this one can be on
the head or on the bottom of your elbow

and this one from here you can twist it
so from here you build a good firm root

After you finish this kind of training,
because this training is easier, then

you start training with the leg this
way. Because when you are in a push

situation, encountering enemies, your
leg, always one leg forward, one back,

backwards.

So because of this reason, again, you
have to learn how to twist this one, or

bend it, and turn. The whole body has to
twist it, and twist it, and twist it.

Then while you practice, make the back
heavier, and heavier, and heavier, until

you become very firm.

the waist power because the waist
remember tai chi classic they say the

generated from the leg controlled by the
waist and manifest in the fingers so

that means the waist area is very
important which direct and which control

entire body's function in the tai chi
pushing hands so you have a chance go

find a bag and practice and until you
feel so comfortable it can control the

easily by yourself

Bump in training.

Bump is one of the Tai Chi 13 postures,
13 major training for Jing pattern.

So bumping is use your body to bump the
opponent or when your opponent bumps

you, how do you handle that?

So usually for this kind of bumping,
probably 70 % of the time you use the

body. So this becomes a very important
upper body painting.

For example, this opponent, what you do
is you use the whole body, you bump, and

you bump,

and you bump, and you bump, and any way
you want to bump, you bump the whole

body, the upper body, you bump, and you
bump.

The second thing, if someone bumps your
back, for example, they bump back, you

have to know how to do it with the
timing.

when your timing is right you can easily
do that with a good power so this kind

of bumping training is very important in
the tai chi whenever you can again

after you can do this one easily and
start going this direction because

a support the opponent with your leg
forward and backward again this one

back you can bump bump then bump bump
bump any way you want to

bump But at the same time, continue to
keep a good firm root instead of

uprooted. This uprooted is not quite
good.

But you can keep it stable.

Settle down, settle down, and settle
down, whatever you can.

Any angle you come, you have to bump it.
You can use the forearms.

You can use the elbow, use the shoulder,
use the chest.

Until later, you can use the back.
Again, use the back to bump. Use the

bump. And then you can use the butt to
bump either.

So any kind of this kind of bumping
exercise is important in the Tai Chi

-in situation.

Peng Jing Lian Xi In the Peng Jing Lian
Xi, word of

practice, there are two options.

One you can practice with a partner. The
other one you practice with the same

back. So now let me demonstrate with a
partner.

So in this exercise, what you do, you
ask your partner to lock your elbow.

and right leg forward so what you try to
do you try to push your center and try

to once you lock your center and try to
push off balance that whole concept in

order for you to release this pressure
you have to use a pong jing this is

called pong pong that's mean both of
them arc outward the back arc backward

chest draw in so this kind of power
called pong jing is existing everywhere

the tai chi so it's very important
because in the 13 postures this is

is a major major major crucial points of
the Tai Chi training.

So when you practice this one, ask
someone to try to lock you, and try to

the center, and you should use a Peng
Jing to neutralize it.

So this kind of practice is so
important.

Then after you practice a while, then
again you practice the other partner.

Again, use a Peng Jing, then you can
neutralize it.

Okay, so one thing is that when you do
Peng Jing, don't...

get in too close you get too keen to
cross the body you allow your other

to get into the center so in this case
you can lock so that means you have to

move back aggressively the first thing
is that gently when you gently move out

you rotate let me try again that you can
see for example you try to get in here

and try to open you already lock
yourself so slightly then you already

instead of allow your partner get in too
much for example when i get in See now,

that's too much now. When that's too
much, then it will take a hard time for

to open up because I already reached the
center.

So because the reason, just a little
bit, body already turned. So in this

nobody finds, nobody centers.

It's very important for you, for this
training.

Once you know how to train this one, you
learn how to protect your center and

how to protect your root.

The pong jing training.

Pong lets me roll up.

That's why I try to train both your arm
arching and then shoulder.

forward, and the chest draw in.

So this is the Peng Jin training, it's
very important in Tai Chi, number one.

So because the reason the first one you
train is actually this back, you learn

how to circle on this.

So until you have this wrong feeling.

Again, you can circle the other side
until you have this wrong feeling.

Once you get that, then you start using
this kind of Peng Jin. For example, this

back or this opponent.

Then use this one, you go out the way,
and go away.

then use this part of the body to bounce
it off balance again this part you can

use it for defensive if someone really
push you then you can use the side way

bump it away so watch my chest it's very
important for the chest to build the

foundation so if someone come in the
chest have to up in in order to be of

strength we don't do that if someone
come in you try this push your body

backwards that it's not good so because
this reason give you The body structure

gives you a very firm foundation to
bounce people away.

So from here you can see the body this
way.

Help you to stabilize yourself.

Again, then up there you practice the
leg forward.

Then they will come in, walk away. This
actually becomes easier because it

allows you to twist further. It's easier
to bounce people.

So this whole twist is important for
this part. For this part. For this

So this one, the more you practice, the
easier you become.

Have good root, at the same time good
waist control, and good power

manifestation for the walling off.

In Tai Chi, simple stick hand training
is very important.

It's the foundation of Tai Chi pushing
hand training.

But unfortunately, in the last 50 years,
not too many styles emphasize that.

The whole concept is following the Tai
Chi symbol, and you try to use your hand

and body movement to trace the Tai Chi
symbol. From there, you build up your

root, and build up the whole body's
coordination.

From the root until your hand becomes
one unit.

So, solo practice without the leg first.

You can see I use the right hand. When
you use the right hand, you can see, now

I use the chest in, there's a pong.

Circle the palm in, and the face out.

When you press out, don't turn.

It's very important.

Don't turn out before you pass the
center line.

So when you go here, you pass the center
line, and you turn down.

So when you go in, you can see this is
the Tai Chi symbol.

Then, in order for you to repeat, you
have to cover this side for solo

So in, and out, and in.

So you try to coordinate breathing.

Again, breathing is so important in the
Tai Chi Quan practice.

So once you make a pattern become so
smooth, then coordinate with breathing.

Inhale, then this exhale, and this
inhale, and this exhale,

and this inhale, and this exhale, and
this inhale, and

this exhale, and this inhale.

And exhale again.

Alright? So a lot of times, once you
practice that, you become two hands that

practice the same pattern.

So this hand says inhale, and then
exhale, and then inhale, and exhale,

and inhale, and then exhale again.

So again, you can do this way.

So this kind of practice, once you get
without the legs, Once you can get the

upper body smoothly, with a good body
movement, then you start coining with

leg. When you're coining with the leg,
you can see, this is usually called four

-six stance.

It's called mountain climbing stance.

So you can follow this way. Inhale, then
exhale.

Then inhale, sit back.

And exhale, inhale, and exhale. You can
see the entire body coining it. It's

still just on the hands.

So you start calling with the legs. If
you look at the front side, you can see

the pattern very easily.

So from here you can see this exhale,
inhale, exhale, inhale,

and this exhale.

And inhale, exhale, inhale, and exhale.

Of course, when you practice, you
practice both sides, both legs. So in

case, your body has built both legs
equally.

Now after you finish the solo practice,
then you need a partner.

When you need a partner, again, you need
a partner to follow. But now when you

have a partner, you find out, remember
this symbol, and then now inside have a

figure eight.

So this eight, this circle, you don't
come back. So it becomes the eight. So

look at the symbol. Actually, you can
see this exact Tai Chi symbol you're

looking for.

All right? So when you practice with a
partner, let me demonstrate this one

Mishi.

When you practice with a partner, first
one, no leg.

Because in this case, you can help each
other coordinate. Remember, do not

resist. Just follow and second and
follow.

It's a very simple concept.

Don't resist. So I move down.

and become inside so this and this so
you watch

the breathing and this is exhale and
inhale

and then I exhale and inhale

and exhale so every time you can see if
I go to the big circle that's exhale

once you go to small then I become
inhale

to follow the opponent.

Once you practice that, it becomes with
the leg. With the leg, you can see the

performance becomes this way.

So now, I move forward because I'm
aggressive.

Then I exhale, then follow me.

Then from here, now, I follow him, then
step forward.

You see the body movement? And so it's
simple. It's the waist area, have to

as well.

So it's very good if you use the left
hand to touch the waist area, you have

this feeling.

the body movement So this one is not
only build up the body movement and also

build your ankle and your knee and your
hip joints Okay,

this is the yang side of the Tai Chi
symbol of course you should practice the

other side as well

When I say stop, then you preach the
stop. Continue, continue, continue.

Okay, yeah. Here, earlier I see she
changed the hands too early.

The first one, don't change hands here.
You have to pass the center line.

When you pass the center line, then you
change. So this one is very important.

It's very easy for anybody to make the
same mistake.

The second thing, one part is missing.

Which part is missing?

This part.

So that means they just turn the body
without this part. So you watch it

carefully. This one is in and out and in
and out. So a lot of time once you

practice a while, then this hand touch
here. So you have this feeling.

Still early. Okay, still early. You have
to pass the center line.

Continue. Let me see.

Good. After that, now you can turn.
Okay? So remember that point.

Okay, now, right leg forward.

Remember, don't make the same mistake.

Okay.

Watch your chest.

The chest is still not there.

Good. Alright, now, you can see now.

she corrected this hand the one thing
she made a mistake is when you move back

the butt you can see the butt the butt
cannot stick out the butt has to be

continue upwards yeah because it cannot
go this way because in this case it's

easy for you to fall these directions so
and we can put your root but both of

them commonly both of them make the same
mistake let me show you okay this

mistake all right you stand face this
side you can see all right don't move

Watch it. This one, the center, this is
open.

Okay? Now, then this side.

Now, you can see, my leg, I can go
straight to the groin. I can kick the

Remember, one thing is very important.

Tai Chi chain belongs to short -range
and long -range fighting.

So, because this case, every time
someone sticks with you, if your groin

exposed, they're going to kick your
groin. Because the reason, this leg has

the toe and the heel have to line up.

And not only that, the toe has to be
slightly locked in.

If this toe doesn't go slightly locked
in, then when someone kicks you, you

cannot block yourself.

For example, you face like that, you
can't because this one's leg can come in

kick your groin. Because this reason is
so important for anyone, you are

learning Tai Chi chain for defense.

You have to learn.

This one, the toe and heel line up. At
the same time, the knee lock in, the toe

slightly in. So in this case, it's a
good position. So when you practice, it

a position.

Don't go this way.

Okay? That's an important concept, so
everybody should watch it.

In this exercise, that's the most basic
in the single pushing hand exercise.

What you do, you neutralize the coming
power horizontally.

So when you practice this one, the first
one you should practice without the leg

first. Every time you practice without
the leg first.

In this case, it will help you to
concentrate on your waist area, your

area, your body's rotation.

A lot of people, they start with the
leg. Then find out, because the leg, and

then lower, the upper body becomes
tense.

They can never get loose.

So because this reason is so important
for you to practice this one without leg

first. So first one is the Peng.

You can see my body again.

Lü.

And after Lü, they neutralize and An.

It's very calm.

It's simple, but at the same time, you
can see it's complicated as well because

everything is so detailed.

You can see my body up again.

Turn to the side. You neutralize the
power and coil on the top.

So this kind of practice is important.

Do it by yourself whenever you can.

That's and .

Of course you should practice the other
side as well. So this one we consider is

large circles because what you do you
use your body to neutralize the coming

power go to this side but in the Once
you reach a high level, this circle

becomes smaller and smaller. Instead of
use the body, use rotation and arm

movement. Actually, you can see by body
twisting.

When body twisted, you can see
misaligned already. Like that, you're

against you. Once you turn like that,
it's misaligned, but you can see my arm

doesn't move.

So here, it becomes small circle.

So when you practice, you should
practice big circle first, slowly, and

the small circle.

Once you get this good, then start with
the leg. Again, as pointed out before.

Your knee Lock in and your toe and the
heel you lined up.

So this hand I always like a student
touch here or touch here So in this case

you can feel this part moving this part
moving.

So from here, it's in, it's pong You can
see this is straight in, this is called

yiling. That means allow your enemy come
in. So once they come in then you lead.

It's neutralizing. This is called lu,
roll back.

Once you're here, you coil and un.

There's a pong, ru, and an.

There's a pong, ru, and an. So now from
here you can see how important for this

way of turning, as we explained earlier.

It's very important. This quad cannot be
locked. If this lock can see everything

locked like that, you get very bad
disadvantage position.

But once you turn, this one is okay.

So from here you can see it's so
important for you, this quad has to be

turn if they're locked this way.

so watch that part this and this again
you should practice both side but you go

to the side way maybe help you
understand the body turning turn and

long time i asked you in the corner with
this hand because allows you to have a

body's arching position so and

Good. There's a few things I want to
point out. For example, for her, she go

like this one. When you push it, you can
see she shift the weight from one side

to the other side, instead of keeping
the center.

Because once you shift it, that means
it's very easy because you lose your

center and easy for your enemy to pull
you. So watch, when you rotate, don't

shift it. That's one thing. And for you,
the body, this tense.

You drop it, but don't arch it. You
slightly arch in.

Okay, that's the two things you have to
watch out for at that point. And the one

point is this one.

Rotate. So this one, you just press it
by yourself.

When you press it by yourself, it
becomes, you rotate, and this, and this.

Okay, try to see if you can follow me
for this one. Follow me for this one.

This,

then, arch in, and up, and up.

push forward so this row circling this
is called coiling

here and forward again turn and coiling
and circle

the elbow should be down that's it if
you elbow like that that's arm pushing

elbow should be down okay

Okay, watch it. When you push it, at
that time, the body don't stand up.

Because when you push it at that time,
you get to be rooted.

So when you do neutralize, your body
push down, you're uprooted.

So because really it's very important to
watch it. When you're down here, you

push it, the body actually try to get
slightly down instead of getting up.

No, when you push it, don't get up.

Those are small things, so watch it.

Okay, now try to see your right leg
forward.

No matching, right leg forward.

single foot without this hand okay this
hand just touch here good watch your

chest much better than earlier okay now
in

that's good you can turn quite a little
bit more okay that's good now only

slightly make big difference okay yeah
all right so like this one solo form is

not bad only one thing don't move yet
hey now he said just hey you know i'm

going to correct him because the leg
again his leg have a habit open this one

going away exposed so it's important for
this one okay right otherwise they did

pretty good even that take a while to
practice the body is so soft now a lot

things now his elbow start dropping and
the shoulder drop it's good one earlier

the first one you have is a horizontal
neutralization

actually this one you lead it down so
lead it down the power downwards and the

same time the body turn so when you
practice solo form again it's very

from here always here So when you do the
Pong, the chest arching, you neutralize

first. When you neutralize, you can see
the upcoming power has been redirected

to the side way. Once you go here, the
hand climb over.

So now you can see this horizontal.

When you're horizontal, your opponent's
hand becomes downward, going downwards.

So that's become very important. Turn,
and once you go here, downwards, and you

push.

Okay, now in, turn, downwards, and you
push.

Now again in turn and downwards and push
So when you push you

remember when you push again, don't
uproot yourself.

So again hóng lú neutralize and un Again

you have to do the other side as well.
You have to do both sides because when

you're pushing the situation You don't
know which side you need it to push in

again. So after that again, you can use

the leg forward and backwards from here
again this is Pong this is Lü and An

this is inhale and this is exhale

every time you attack it's exhale every
time you neutralize it's inhale so watch

your Kua turn and move forward and
inhale the Kua turn and

sideway and forward

okay now inhale turn and downwards and
forward and now in

sideways downwards and forward so you
look at sideways you can see it's a

different angle for you to see this form
you in and rotate and downward and push

forward in and downwards and push
forward

in rotate and downward and push forward
okay this one can also practice

with the other hand for example this
hand supposed to be assume that your

opponent hand he push you then he pushes
you then you just you rotate and

sideways downwards and after it push
forward again this one and

this arm

So a lot of time you can practice this
direction and the push and this

direction, push this direction, practice
for this kind of coiling exercise.

So this kind of exercise when I learned
in the past, that's all we practiced,

all these horizontations. See the hand,
I climb over like a snake, climb over

and climb over and climb over.

So when you practice,

With the stance, the same thing.

Peng. Lü.

And on.

Peng. Lü. Direct downward. On. So you
can see the difference of this one and

previous one. Actually, moving down and
downward.

Then I got in.

So this will give you an advantage. You
can pull your opponent down and expose

this angle for your attack.

Okay, so from this exercise, I can see
the two person demonstrate.

Okay, she still have a habit.

She shift from one leg to the other leg.
That's one thing she had to learn to

keep the center.

On the bottom, this part, sometimes I
see they have it, sometimes they don't

have it. It's important for this, the
chest is arching. You turn neutral, it's

open, and go in.

Okay, so this part is missing a little
bit on the leg. Otherwise, it's pretty

good. Okay? Now, we try to see. Use the
other hand.

You can make it.

Okay, now I can see she still have a
problem for the elbow.

Elbow is not sunk in. When you want to
push something, this part is good. But

when your elbow go up, let's use the arm
this tense.

So because the reason the elbow has to
be down.

Okay, that's the one thing is important.

And the second one both of them is
missing. This one is climb over.

This climb over. They turn over. No,
it's climb over. See this like a snake.

climb over. So here is climb over. Here
is climb over.

This kind of neutralization is very
small.

Usually, only people reach advanced
level, they can have this feeling.

Usually, it's hard for them, for
beginners.

All right, now right leg forward.

Now, stop there, watch it. The one thing
is, in both of them, the quads, this

quad, didn't turn.

This quad is very important.

You go here, you push like that, it's
still exposed.

In this case, there's no firm
foundation.

So when you push it, this has to be
square.

So this part has to watch this part,
okay?

Again, you need to neutralize. It's not
soft, because that means this section

and this section doesn't coordinate.
This section and this section is the

time. That's why you can neutralize.

so a lot of time we press it much better
now see from here you can see a lot of

time I teach students to touch here and
at the same time this press move this

press move at the same time that's how
you can neutralize okay now with another

hand let me see okay watch the body the
body waste some good good go

don't

stand up turn the body first before you
circle

body rotate first rotate first

okay

now stop there don't move okay for
example watch this hand the hand like

not quite good okay like that is good
okay so it's very important for you to

This is the part where the power comes
from. It's not this part.

So you push like that, this place tense.

You push like that, this loose.

It's not only that. This finger try to
touch your opponent as much as possible.

The more you touch, the more you
control.

The more you have feeling.

Because the reason when you push it, you
have to reach this way. Don't go this

way. The hand do not open.

Okay? So watch that part.

And also, what she did, she didn't turn
first.

She already moved. Like this one, very
easily, it can be locked.

so because the reason that your body
want to turn first to neutralize the

before you can turn because you
neutralize then you turn it's a much

before right away you lock yourself in

the

single pushing hands i learned from my
master there are four basic single push

hands or single push -hand and the
double push -hand there are six

options so now this is number three
after that we're going to practice

two for double push -hand utilization
single push -hand practice okay so this

number three what you do the enemy come
in or your opponent come in the power

you redirect to this angle remember
earlier we go to this side and then we

this side now we're going this side so
from this reason again you can see now

first one if someone push you Always
very important to re -establish your

foundation by this awesome exercise.

When you ask it, the body turns. When
you turn right away, you can see I

redirect the power on this side and
upwards at the same time. When you go

pass the center line, then you push
down.

And again, pass the center line, and
then push down. You can see the body

directs the hand. The body moves, and
the hand just follows.

So from this kind of exercise, you can
see the body can turn to the left and

neutralize easily.

Okay. Again, you want to practice with
this hand. It's so simple. You can

practice this one again. It's the same
exercise.

Use this hand, assume that this is your
opponent's hand. Then from here, you can

neutralize. You practice by standing
this way.

Again, this. You see, this one allows
you to have body healing.

When the body heals, it allows you to
have more space.

the withdrawal to neutralize opponent's
power so you in remember pass the center

line and out and this in and this exhale

this inhale and this exhale again this

inhale and this exhale okay you go the
side way you can see this is the side

inhale and this exhale inhale

And this exhale.

Remember this kua has to turn. As I
mentioned all the time, this inhale, the

body turns sideways. When you push it,
this is strong, this is not good. When

you push this way, you bounce your body
backwards that way.

You can practice this hand as well. Turn
and down.

So turn and down. On this hand,
remember, don't go this way.

okay yeah it's not bad it's okay again
the same thing you watch her she always

shift from one side the other side that
one will take a long time to be able to

have it but it will okay the one thing
that's slightly missing is to go here

there's a coil in this one so this is
the coil it still go push down this way

there's a coil on the top so because
recently you can see up on this coil

tiny coil on the top and move down so
that part have to watch it okay now

leg forward let me see yeah now actions

watch the chair

hey everything is good go continue

and watch the quad have to turn quad
have to

turn watch this quad some more a little
bit more yes so this one you push it has

to turn more in and this side that's
good okay continue

in chest in and

that's very good in one more time
neutralize

and up that's good okay but the one
thing i want to point to you is that

When you go up here, don't move your
hand back.

When you move here, your hand still
continues to contact your opponent.

Stay here and down.

You move up here, you neutralize, you
move back and move. This one, you lose

connection. So watch this part.

This is number four, neutralization

angle. Because a lot of time when you're
pushing with your opponent, either your

right leg forward or left leg forward.

So with your right leg forward, this
angle is bad angle to against you.

Because this angle we call empty door.

When someone push against here, there's
no good reaction force to against the

push. So because this really is easy to
push off balance.

So in order to avoid this problem,
that's why this technique designed.

So that means when someone push you this
way, you cannot resist.

If you try to push back, you resist.
When you resist, you build a firm root

your partner to push you off.

so because reason what you do is just
follow so when you push this angle

when you follow just slightly forward
early later when i practice with partner

you can see what's the reason for that
it's very simple when you go here you

neutralize when you neutralize he push
you no you follow to neutralize further

and after they become number three so
only difference of the number three and

number four is the number four you added
this part to lead opponent force

further away then after that you can
neutralize by number three that's only

difference so from here you can see
going this way and turn and going up

okay so this way and up forward because
this reason then there's no sense for

you to practice with this one because
there's no angle for you so the right

you practice with the leg forward
because this is a bad angle so we go

angle you can see this enemy can push
you no i move away from here but a lot

time people say When you push this way,
then you expose yourself to your

opponent. It is true.

But you should remember, single pushing
hand is a fundamental drill, fundamental

practice. It's designed to practice for
the double pushing hand. And the double

pushing hand is designed for the moving
pushing hand. Because in the real

situation, when you're pushing with your
opponent, you're not staying there

stationary. Because the reason, don't
worry about your sports, because your

is going to be repositioning yourself.

So don't worry about that. So later when
we come to double push in, you'll

understand what I mean.

Okay? So when you practice, turn this
way, and then up, and then forward.

Watch it. My body is still square, and
then forward.

So you're going to do it that way. This
angle, up, and now this way. So from

here you can see this kind of training
is so important for you.

That's the beginning. In this tape, we
introduce all this kind of exercise.

the hip joint, the knee, your ankle.
It's so important for all these pretend

exercise. Forward, in, and down.

In.

neutralize more to the side to the side
to the side

yeah

last one is the best okay now from here
you can see the difference if i

use this gentleman to to watch it
practice with me you can see number

can see number three is this angle So
the first couple of times they did this

angle, it was wrong. It should be when
someone pushes you this side, because

this one is strong.

But once your hands go here, he's weak
because nobody can push him with a long

arm extended.

So because the reason this one is rude
to push you, when you go here, it

disappears. So when you disappear,
that's the way you go in. So when you

practice, you have to watch it. This
one, you need it. This part first.

this is the Yi Ling only this they can
turn instead of right away and move up

then then they become the number three
so watch the point in

this exercise it's not one

of the original single pushing hands
it's supposed to be part of a double

pushing hands so you still have to use
the right leg forward because you try to

neutralize the side way so what you do
is if someone push you you go in this

angle this is a pong once you get pong
this hand right away neutralize and move

back and forward again this neutralize
and this take away and right away this

forward you watch carefully again this
one you leave the power to the side in

the double pushing later we talk about
you can see how this one neutralize when

you go here you neutralize sideways and
this hand take over right away this take

away and push forward and seal him so
this one and right away he's still and

pushing forward again this inhale and
this exhale

and this inhale and this exhale okay

you look at the sideways the same thing
you can see from here there's a body's

angle when you angle for this one this
hand right away you take over don't turn

palm face in it's a common mistake
people can make so don't turn some wood

because this is already neutralized you
go here they call double neutralization

you don't need that it takes time it's
not only that when you every time you go

this way your enemy push you you're
going to steal you so when you go here

away you want to take away and forward
in and then take away and forward

and this in and take away and forward
and in and take away

and forward

Okay, good.

Stop there.

Okay, so watch the knee. Is it open or
not? If it's open, it's not good. So

watch this part.

Okay, that's good.

Okay, one thing both of them make the
same mistake is this one.

This is tense.

Not only that, that's too far.

Because when you go here, opponent tense
here. Don't go all the way here to

here. Because this one just only allows
him to...

Lock you so because reason when you go
here the hand immediately over this area

So you watch the carefully you can see
later. You can see this point in both

hands. This is neutralized already So
your hand don't want to go here when you

go here you push this down you lock
yourself No, you go here right away. You

want to go here. So immediately
immediately this on this part So watch

and you still so this part gotta watch
and the hand they push back that's tense

When you tense you lose the sensitivity
of the hand finger so because the reason

you try to get as soft as you can so
watch this part right away you go

don't lock this

technique the

sounds are very similar to last one but
eventually it's a different application

so this one sometimes when i learn from
my master he say for smearing because

both the hands look like it's me on the
wall okay so when you press this one

again to right leg forward because this
for double pushing practice with a

partner so when you go here again when
someone push you you push it the hands

the top this one right away you can see
i turn and neutralize so when you try

again i go here push forward again here
and then you catch from the top remember

earlier we go here but now you got from
the top so from here you catch it and

then turn you lock it and then you roll
back because this all roll back again

you come in here and then neutralize and
from here on the top you catch over

and coming down once you come down again
become this and turn again

and this one neutralize and coming down
this roll back again you neutralize and

coming forward okay so you look at
sideways again Very simple. The first

neutralize. Very similar from the other
one. Because remember, the other one go

to under. Now this one from the top.

When you go to the top, right away you
catch it. You go to the outside of his

arm. Then there's a roll back.

Why is the roll back? Pull him this
side.

But what you do, you seal it and push
forward.

Again, you turn in. This neutralize from
the top. Iron circle.

And roll back.

Why is the roll back? And take over.

One more time here, the hand already
touch and turn,

iron coming down and take over and push
him up iron.

It's not bad.

Okay, let's try to see.

I want you to watch and then you
understand what's the purpose of this

both say you push it, right? That's the
first time you neutralize. Remember the

hand here.

When your hand here, you neutralize.
That's our hand. I'm going to the back.

When I go here, that's exactly I lock
him for Dari.

But in the competition, in the practice,
you go here, right away you can see

this and I seal and push him off
balance.

That's the only thing we are doing.

Earlier we have a single push hand solo.

That means the body you learn to arc
horizontal after the neutralize and push

forward. So this one now we practice
with the partner and see how with the

partner how you practice that kind of
feeling.

That kind of feeling or touching feeling
in tai chi they call listening jing.

Listening, that means skin listening.
It's not the ear listening.

Okay, so in practice with partner, first
one, always the first one is called

horizontal neutralization.

Okay, now I use the Michi as a partner.

Okay, this hand, I still like to touch
on the waist area.

So in this case, you know, this place
have to move first.

Remember Tai Chi classic, they always
say, the movement initiated from the

directed by the waist, and manifest in
the fingers.

So from here you can see what's the
width. The width is like a steering

a car.

It directs the power.

So he pushed it. Right away you can see
this yin. So this one is called yin. And

it allows you to have a pong.

This is a pong.

So when you have a pong, the body
rotates.

This is ryu.

And you see my right hand is circled.
And this is an. So now he pong.

And the ryu.

And circle on the top. Pong. And circle
on the top.

Pong. Ryu.

An. Pong.

Ryu.

An An Peng Lue and An Peng Lue and An

Peng Lue and An Turn until the body,
it's very important until the body

neutralize the coming force to the side
then you can turn so usually you can use

your shoulder as the standard when you
move this hand lined up with shoulder

usually your opponent's power go to the
side way already so you turn to the side

here and you rotate and move to this
side so it's very important for you to

practice this one how do you judge your
body how far you have to turn you turn

too far it's not good expose yourself if
without turning far enough again you'll

be still okay so let's watch again for
this one a lot of time you can practice

this one without the leg so a lot of
time the leg you don't have to be there

like this you push it the same thing see
you push pung elbow down and arm

eh that's good now turn to this shoulder
and go this way eh turn

this way turn and this way turn first eh
that's good

turn and go this way ready

okay stop here okay when you push it
watch it the hands should be on the

area because every time you push someone
or control someone always control the

joints if you control here it's not good
he's still alive the hand still can be

moved easily if you go here you
immobilize him so it's very important

two times you always got here so you got
to go this part and elbow down okay now

continue again

okay yeah this one because what she's
doing now she's doing like a second one

it's not really so we watch the form
when she when you push it you see the

i go to sideways i'm climb over so my
hand is not on the top this way i'm not

climb over and then go to the wrist and
come in again now see like that you

didn't turn far enough because i'm still
underneath the elbow now he try to

rotate when he rotate he still himself
it's just a little bit forward a little

bit forward now i'm out then that's best
you come in and go in see a little bit

forward is out because like that still
line up against the elbow it's not good

can easily push up so a little bit more
yeah turn a little bit more yeah

so watch that point so it's very
important to see this how you neutralize

the elbow and to the shoulder here, then
you can neutralize the power.

Xia Hua.

Earlier we talked about solo practice.
We talked about you neutralize the body

to the side way until you reach the
shoulder, then the hands on the top.

This is called downward neutralization
because you're downward, so to lead your

opponent, power downward.

So now this one, see how we practice
with the opponent.

Okay, I see you're using your shift.

Okay, so we push it Again your body
neutralize to the side when you go to

neutralize the side you can see the
power goes sideways already Then this

the hand climb over they can see this
Horizontal because this allows you for

this because this one is a bad angle for
him because it's easy for him to lose

balance for this side Okay, so because
this reason you have to go here And

you push forward not not early turn.
Yeah, then rotate.

Yeah turn first neutralize and climb
over Turn and climb over. Turn and climb

over. Softer. Turn and climb over. Watch
the waist. Turn and climb over.

Waist. Turn and climb over. Turn and
climb over.

Horizontal. Watch this. Horizontal. Turn
and climb over.

And turn and climb over. Turn and climb
over. Okay, so be careful about the leg.

Don't open wide.

Okay, so you can see this is actually
only application practice partner.

and earlier with other partners.

okay stop there okay again this hands
again the same as first one see the

is still here still alive still a little
bit on this side and that's good yeah

other than that the both of them is
pretty good except sometimes your body

lean a little bit just watch it yeah
always this one don't go this way watch

this part okay

yeah and also

neutralization yeah horizontal

okay actually what they do is not bad
only a little bit this one is not

horizontal a little bit sideways this
way because this one still sometimes can

get locked here so you can break it out
so watch this part remember

earlier we talked about neutralization
is a neutralize

this up and after it passes center line
when we talk about center line that

means this line and this line center
line up Before you turn, if you go this

way, that means you have mutual
resistance.

You try to use force against force.

But when you go here, past the center
line, then you neutralize. That means

lead. When you lead, you neutralize. So
it's very important for you, don't turn

your hand too early. You have to pass
the center line.

And then after that, you can turn your
hand.

So this exercise, again, from here.

So when you push it, you push the
center, then you move up.

Going up.

Pass the center line and you move
forward.

Okay. So when you practice all this
exercise, single push hands, the

always push this area.

This area is called center.

In all Chinese martial arts, this area
is so important.

This area, if you strike it downwards,
you can pull the muscle down. Then you

seal the breath. People cannot breathe.

You punch this area right straight
forward, and people feel nauseous, like

throw up. You punch this place upwards,
you can cause heart attack because of

power going upwards.

So because of the reason, you always
practice this area. So for beginners,

you practice, you should practice only
pushing this area until you are...

very good for all the options of single
pushing hands and double pushing hands

after that you start pushing on this
corner this corner or this corner this

corner even dan tian so you can have
different varieties that means when

tries to neutralize you or you try to
neutralize your opponent you cannot

neutralize the same technique because
you have to use a different technique to

neutralize different way of power your
opponent initiated okay so now you

practice when you practice push the
center so from here you can see up I'm

the center line and go forward.

And the center line.

Hey, that's very good.

And softer and softer.

Get rid of muscle as much as you can.
Call it with the breathing. Inhale.

And exhale.

And inhale.

Softer and softer.

The spine moves and chest moves.

Watch the chest.

It has to move in and move out.

So you can see, I don't care how much
power you're pushing, it's right away. I

neutralize it.

Again, when you push it, the body is
squared.

Actually, what they did, they did a
pretty good job. Yeah, pretty good job.

only thing is the body tried to be
softer and softer and softer until the

body is so soft.

When they do that, it's not. The form is
very good.

It's the only thing, the feeling still
feels not as soft, as deep as possible.

Okay, but of course, this can come from
time.

Because only when you are soft, as soft
as possible, once you start coordinating

with your breathing, coordinating with
your mind, then become internalized.

Because now what you look is more
externalized instead of internalized.

But they take time. So you have to be
softer and softer until everything is so

soft. When you push it, your mind is so
strong and qi flows.

You can see muscles get rid of as much
as you can.

Remember number three.

and number four the difference number
three go this way number four go this

first and going upwards now with the
partner you can see what's the reason

that okay now you can see with a partner
now michi try push me this way instead

of just straight forward with straight
forward no problem i can neutral up but

we're gonna push this way it's not easy
because i push up it's still me easily

So once you go here, I got trouble
because it still have good root, good

foundation. Now watch it. It just move
this way. Now, this power disappear.

It just change of angle from this angle
and this angle. That's what we call

lead. Lead the power into the emptiness.

So from here, once you lead here, now
it's out. Then you move and come in down

this way. All right. So again, people
argue, say, okay, if you go here, this

side exposed.

It is true. That I mentioned earlier,
it's true.

The question is, when you push in with
your opponent in the real situation,

you're not going to stand here.

Because when I neutralize, right away my
body is moved already. Keep away from

the hand.

Or I move this side, I'm going to steal
this side already. So there's no problem

for that. So don't worry. This is only a
basic drill, a basic training for this.

So from here, there's some reason you
can see. You turn this side way, and

that, go.

Then go here, you turn side way.

And then I turn side way, and go number
three.

This.

and what you do try to steal each other
with this angle so that's why you can

get out i try to see him now you get out
i say go this one and go out so you can

see this out on the number three so
watch this one don't turn the hand too

so this one on this one okay so you can
see number three and number four

different one is up here the other is
here i'm going up that's the only thing

different so in this case you can learn
how to solve the problem if someone push

on this side

what you see that is good for the form
but it looks like number three the

for that because when they push it they
don't extinguish it so clearly because

you still push this way now you suppose
circle this way so we circle this way

that's come this way now I push forward
it's not okay so that part they still

miss this part so when i push him i'm
not pushing this way i'm pushing this

hey that's why he has to follow me that
side so when i push you go this side

that's it and come in again you push me
no straight not this side yeah so this

part is missing okay so they have to
think finish this one we push it this

and this angle it's different
application it's different thing okay so

that part

once you finish a lot of basic drill
then you start practice with partner

any combinations you want again when you
practice as a beginner you push in the

center And after you train for a while,
no, you should keep away from this

center. Center is only one of the
options for your pushing. It can be

can be up at the chin. It can be on this
side of the shoulder. It can be this

side. It can be either side or it can be
here. There are many, many different

locations for you to push.

So it becomes a more advanced free
-pushing hand.

So when you push a push hand, of course,
this is a free -pushing hand. So you

never know which place your opponent is
going to push you. So you have to listen

and follow.

And listen and follow, then you can
neutralize.

okay so now you can see that the three
moving pushing hands single okay

Okay, so you can see this kind of push
hand, this kind of range is a middle

range. So this one is for beginners.

So this one beginner you can see the
circle is big.

One day when you find out this one you
can practice so smooth, then you make a

circle smaller.

The same kind of practice, you can have
a different level. Can be very basic,

can be more advanced.

For example, like this one, it can
become higher.

Yeah, let's become higher.

and when you practice Tai Chi, the more
advanced you become higher and the

center circle becomes smaller so from
here you can see, this is small, you

neutralize already and it becomes so
fast then you can see you cannot find

other yeah

that's how you learn all these
neutralizations and everything becomes

Because when you are in a real
situation, you cannot ask your partner

down. But you can do it good, and with a
good small scale neutralization, then

it becomes high level. That's because
your sensitivity has to be much higher.

alright try to close your eyes both of
you close your eyes

okay

so basically you see they did pretty
good as a beginner they've been training

for one year two years about two years
right two years

Yeah, okay.

It's not very two years. Because now
it's still missing. It's body move, the

hand follow.

Because the body sometimes still, but
sometimes they have it, sometimes they

don't. Yeah, because now you have a
partner, a lot of time you start, the

start wondering.

But they take time. But so far, what
they did is pretty good.

Except that she always have problem that
she have to watch out in the future.

Always like this one, got to watch this
part.

And when you push it, you always push
this way, got to watch that part.

Yeah, I'll earn that then.

they'll be good in the future but you
have to be picky on them

when

you

go to double pushing hands actually the
first one you

should have mastered already single push
hand after single push hand they start

adding the other hand become double
pushing hands Okay, when you do the

pushing, it's very important for left
hand side.

Now I have a partner so I can explain to
you.

For example, if someone tries to push
you, there are two places you can

neutralize. One is neutralized from the
wrist, the other one neutralized from

his elbow.

So when you neutralize, try to watch it.

This part is easier to neutralize than
the wrist, because this one is simple, a

little bit directed, already go off
balance.

But here, you take a bigger pass for
this one.

So because the reason the left -hand
side neutralization is more important

the right -hand side.

So when you neutralize, the first thing
you try, I want you to practice this

one. This one, neutralize, the hands go
this way. The thumb on the top, and the

other four fingers on the bottom.

This one, you push on the top, the
cavity.

This one, the bottom cavity, so you can
easily lock.

So when you do this, once you
neutralize, this hand has to stay on the

you don't stay on the top, this hand is
easy to reverse the hand. For example,

he locks me, it's easy for me to attack.

But once this one stays on the top, it's
not easy because it mobilizes him.

It mobilizes my action. So because the
reason when you go here, this hand runs

away, you want to steal.

So it becomes a very important part of
the training.

When you do the double push hand, the
first thing you try to learn is how to

neutralize the opponent's elbow.

So he tries to push it.

You neutralize it and still. So this
hand, you have to learn to still this

place. Okay. So don't do fast.

Do slow when you practice with your
partner. So when I push it, it allows

have the body movement instead of fast
first.

The body has to turn. The body has to
turn. The body has to turn. Body turn.

Body turn.

Yeah. The body has to turn.

And slow first instead of do fast.

So in this case, allow your partner to
practice slow with the body movement.

hand touch here.

So this one, comfortable.

That's how comfortable the body moves.

After you train for a long time until
this hand becomes so easy, you can

neutralize the opponent's elbow. Then
you go to horizontal.

So horizontal, right hand exactly the
same. You see right hand? That is

the same as the single pushing hand.

Okay, now what you do is just edit this
part.

When you do the double pushing, do not
touch it all the time because like that,

it's not dangerous for you.

But when you go here, now elbow stops,
dangerous to you. And the shoulder,

can come to attack you.

Since then, then you start intercept.

Then you neutralize and push forward.

So now there you go. Again, this one
neutralize the right hand. My right hand

neutralize, I turn. The same as the
single pushing hands.

So this, and I turn.

And this, and I turn.

And this, and I turn.

So it's very important for you to learn
this intercept.

The body turns, you neutralize, and turn
on top, and now you push down.

So this is pong,

this is lu, roll back, and this is an.

So, one again, turn, and elbow up, and
this, and down.

Okay, now turn, see this hand controls
the elbow, and then seal, and go

forward.

Okay, you can see both of them are not
bad except only thing the one thing the

legs still open for the groin exposed So
watch the point.

Okay, the second when When this hand
neutralize this hand is gone this hand

don't stay here you stay here you become
tense now just relax Relax when

necessary come back again. You can even
come to the center protect the center

But don't stay here when you stay here
your hands are waiting unless you get

tired so now just relax yeah you can put
it here and find an intercept or you

can drop it just intercept Xia Hua

remember in the single push hands

we neutralize here then you turn to the
side and going down now this one exactly

the same thing so when you come here you
see

When you push it, remember this hand
here. But now this again, elbow and

shoulder is dangerous for you. So
because this reason, when I turn this

right away, this hand I intercept.

This one still turns sideways and the
hand is on the top. Again, this one

me to destroy his center. Then push
forward and this, and turn down.

So you can see right hand exactly the
same as the single push hand.

Watch the left hand and turn.

So comfortable and turn.

okay so from here you can see it's
important you see try to learn to use

body and try to be soft as much as you
can slow down

left hand naturally drop down

Okay, so from here you can see what they
did is pretty good. They did a very

good job. Yeah, the one thing is a
little bit body still in this way, but

that part because it's the same old
problem she had. I think it's very

to keep body this way. But they did a
good job for this one. This one try to

use, let me turn, try to use more, more
body for this part.

San Hua In a single pushing hand,
remember the hand is

going upward, the body turn.

and neutralize, and then push downwards.

Now, let's try to use this one for the
double pushing hands.

Eventually, all these techniques are
very simple. Remember, this is a single

pushing hand. What are we doing?

And then, again, when I neutralize up,
this elbow can be dangerous.

So right away, intercept.

When you intercept, again, I push down.

Then, this one I intercept, and I push
down.

So remember, right hand don't turn too
early. Pass the center line.

you turn so this intercept passing the
line you turn and intercept passing the

line you turn and softer and softer yeah
use more body and use more

body yeah the body very soft and then
you can use whole body to neutralize

power and left hand always becomes habit

okay now for this part you can see for
this gentleman he he didn't push this

up too much because one of the
applications is actually this but if you

you lost it because it's actually this
it's upwards to open this one that's why

you can easily control so that's the
reason the hand has to be here and she

much better the lady did much better for
this part so this part on you have to

turn under the tail see that's too late
already because right away you have to

intercept right away hey that's it so
lift up and down immediately lift up and

down lift up and down watch this part
and also both in the chest

this part slowly disappear again okay so
this in and out this

point has to be there

remember number four for the
neutralization he pushed to the side way

exactly you move this side and after the
turn and coming this way so remember

this one and this is different from
number three number three is going

up and neutralize number four you
neutralize here and coming this way so

go double push in the same thing once I
go here now elbow become dangerous I go

to here intercept

from here and neutralize on the
intercept gun down

neutralize

and turn to the number three like this

okay now you can see number three number
four again only this small part is the

difference everything else remain the
same

okay good yeah so sometimes they did it
sometimes they didn't it just depends

and sometimes they your hands they did
it but first few times they didn't so

watch their point it's the last few
times was right this hand and still okay

this understand up and after that you
feel hey they correct

very quickly for everything yeah so this
and this

Sun Hua Number five

When someone push you, the first one you
neutralize this side So this is Peng,

low power Peng So when low power Peng
right away this hand push Then this one

become the left hand side of pushing
hands So you can do this one for a long

time You want to change the side again
This one you have to neutralize, again

this side So now you go to this side
Alright, so this one, I turn this side

Right away now you want to change side
immediately you can change side see

that's how you change it now I can come
back to others now this one I can change

back Okay, I can come here. All right,
so now we can change it again this then

I can go here Now not all the time you
have to use the right hand Of course if

you use the right hand they have a good
advantage for this one But if sometimes

you have to practice on this side and
don't change it back on this side and

this side you have to turn how to do
this now change back okay now this again

that's number five so a lot of time you
can number five you can practice just

simply by this on this all right

okay so remember the hands the hand
don't go horizontally this way because

this one your enemy still have a
horizontal power to

get you because you still have balance.
But once you go here, it's harder for

him to maintain the balance. So that's
exactly how you move this way. So this

hand can easily intercept.

Okay, the same thing for this part.

a little bit slow down until the form
get right

okay

now stop see watch here this shoulder is
up that's not good so watch this part

so when you turn yeah that's good but
when your shoulder is going up it's not

good the reason for that every time i
see shoulder up then this hand i push up

Like I steal him.

If his shoulder is down, I cannot.

If his shoulder is up the right way, I
push him up. I steal him. So for a good

reason, watch this part.

Yeah, you got a habit for this one.
Alright, try again.

Other than that, it's not bad. You just
have to practice softer and softer.

I don't do too fast. Beginning to slow,
slow, allow the body movements more.

It's still too fast.

Chan Hua.

We know Chan Hua, remember, we have a
low part, that's what we had last time.

But now, it's going to be this way.

From outside. This is called large roll
back.

so number five number six that means the
last one this one they all design

double push in to mix up with the
walking with the large roll back so this

is very important for everybody practice
okay so you watch the hands so we push

forward and neutralize this side instead
of going down and going up this is

still pluck once you pluck i lock
immediately see this for locking when i

now this will take time very quickly or
i can even break easily So that's called

neutralization. For this one, also I can
go this way. I can also neutralize and

take down.

So that's why it becomes large roll
back.

But now, the one we're doing is on the
top. Then this move up, and then circle

this side. Again, people will argue that
this hand is available, it's going to

attack you. It is true, but in the real
situation, I'm not going to stay here.

When I neutralize, you see my body, I
turn away. I'm going away from the hand

already. So because the reason, don't
worry, this is only basic.

training. So when I go here, I go to the
top. When I go to here, so his right

hand should follow me. Because if your
right hand doesn't follow me, when I go

up, I start locking this one. When I
lock in here, that's exactly to get him

down. All right. But if he follows me,
then I cannot lock him. So here, if he

already sealed me, then he sealed me
already.

So I come back to the basic one. So come
here again, he sealed me again, and

then he come back here.

yeah all this is only a pattern only
have a pattern training it's very easy

you to understand and to put the routine
now you can see how I neutralize it

okay so now I do this now you neutralize
it okay now you can see now if you do

it to me you can see this one I turn let
everything's gone and while I still and

move down

When you do this still, that's enough.
Don't do it too much. Because if you do

it too much, actually your body starts
leaning forward.

That's good. You neutralize. See this
one?

I stop here. I don't go too far. If I go
too far, that's not good.

Okay, so from here, it's good.

Okay,

you can see now, number five is on the
bottom, number six on the top. That's

only difference.

okay all right so you can see the the
first mistake they did there's a

neutralize far enough so this one is
hard to grab it if you neutralize far

enough you can see so easy for the plug
to the wrist if it's not the angle is

not good because in this case it still
get you so because reason both of them

didn't get far enough you have to get
far after that you can neutralize and

them if it's still right away it come in

okay so this part neutralize far enough
and go in okay so this is the part got

to watch out in

the three double pushing hands the same
as the single double pushing hand they

have a different target that means it's
not only pushing one spot remember

single pushing we talked about when you
push it at the beginning you're always

pushing the center When you have this
center, it allows you to neutralize

horizontal, downward, upward, any way
you like. But same thing for double

pushing hands. Beginning, you push only
this center area.

But later, you should want to push a
different way, from a different angle,

push upward, push downward, as you wish.

So in this case, you can neutralize
without any problem. That's called free

double pushing hands.

But remember, you have six options to
neutralize your opponent.

Once you are familiar with these six
tools, then you can neutralize all the

power coming. Okay, now let me
demonstrate with this.

okay not bad yeah when you practice a
while then you should learn close your

eyes and do the free push hands until
you can have a good feeling so close

eyes and just cut off all the eye senses
and use your body's feeling

now close your eyes

okay

yeah it's not bad but there are few
spots again

this shoulder sometimes still come up so
this shoulder you got to watch it okay

the other thing when you try this part
the hands are too close a little bit out

so when I push you should be a little
bit out yeah that's out so instead of

watch that part so other than that it's
not bad

Keep practicing.

The more you practice, the better you
are.

Again, with double pushing hands,
there's a big circle. Slowly get the

circle, smaller circle, until
sensitivity is so high.

Okay, that concludes the first step,
single pushing hands and double pushing

hands. Okay, and thank you very much.
