Practical Qi

There are much misunderstanding when it comes to Qi. It's not because Qi doesn't work or exist, it's because those who's trying to explain it don't truly understand it. This is just a short explanation in one of my online classes, there's a lot more to it, but this is just to open up your thoughts.

There's the right way and the wrong way to do Tai Chi. The right way doesn't have to be one way. Only with the understanding of "Various Ways" can get you to a higher level.
Grasp Birds Tails Explanation
Переглядів 6833 місяці тому
Short explanation on some of the basic energies in Grasp the Bird's Tail. Many don't change as the moves do and it's a big mistake to think Tai Chi is different from everything. In fact, Tai Chi uses universal principles and everything is like Tai Chi because everything use the body, mind and spirit.

Beautiful forms ❤☯️
Thank you !
Beautifully performed! A true master. My studies continue with Dr. Peter D, the ophthalmologist in RI who continues teaching and sharing his extensive knowledge of such a wonder art.
Great! Pete is a great guy and a excellent teacher.
It lacks the creeping snake portion.
Like watching the tree tops moving in the wind. The most beautful thing i have ever seen a human do. Thank you for this.
So fluid and smooth. The circles find their way from the core to the hips, knees, ankles, toes and his shoulders, elbows, wrists, and fingers. Everything in harmony and perfect flow. Strength, poise, grace and inner power. A pleasure to watch your Grandfather. I have bookmarked it for study and reference. Thank you very much for posting this.
Best ive seen ...
🙏
Most people don't realize how much strength it takes to play the form like that, with that posture using one part moves all parts move method. I've been adjusted into a 1 of those postures by a master and my leg and core muscles were burning out in a matter of a minute or two.
WOW. The best I have ever seen. Such balance and power. I'm blown away.
Thank you !
this kwoon is so beautiful, perfect floor for Tai Chi
Thank you for the video 🙏
Merci pour le vidéo👃
thank you Master Alex...kung fu of life..
Thank you very much !
You help us so well to improve our Tai Chi. Thank you very much!
I do prefer to say that in Martial Arts we use and train YI (Intent), not QI. QI is very subtle, assuming different forms, names, etc. QI is better understood in Healing (acupuncture, massage, herbs).
Well, Qi and Yi is two different things that work together.
Frankly, I’ve met very few ppl who had qi abilities.
Thank you for the video!
So do you feel dynamic tension, sanchin kata, chinese strength muscle tendon change excercise is harmful..I keep hearing conflicting thoughts
Too much tension is not the best for health. But using power more naturally by using structure, movement and Qi is much better.
This is great! Push and sink at the beginning and push with other leg- I will keep it in mind, thank you so much!
The highest level of martial qigong .
May I ask: I don't see difference between doing the regular set and this movements other than just a bit more dynamics. In external styles there's a lot more explosiveness and speed. So if one does a palm strike without contracting too much that would be fa jin. How do you see the expansion in these movements your student's doing?
It is the same form with Fajin. Tai Chi is not about just explosiveness, we connect like unify the body, root and expand the Qi to make our strikes strong.
Is fajin same side of coin as dynamic tension and muscle tendon change excercise
@@edgefinesse4700 Dynamic tension is more about using power in a strong way-like pushing something heavy. Fajin is more like a strike-it's fast and sharp.
Thank you for the video with explanation in detail.
Supposedly, his push hands was impeccable; the sign of a true master.
Yes, I was luck to push with him in his later years.
The more I watch you the more I realize what I’m doing wrong and I work on correcting myself. I have learned more in the time I have been your student than all the years preceding our relationship. Thank you Sifu 🙏☯️
You do realize there's a black guy in your house?
Thanks for posting this!
I was hoping to see some of it!
Good morning!

It depends...

Thank you so much for posting tis video. Watching the continuity of his forms is something to aspire to.
thank you very much for the class
Sigh... people focus on "Explosiveness" because that's what Fajin is! Taiji often attacks without explosiveness, it is not the only or best way to strike or attack. You CAN use Fajin with brush-knee. It does not make sense with Push or kicks. These use different Jins. Tai Chi does not use the concept of "follow-through" for striking. Rather, it emphasizes "Release" and "mindful of the rear". You are not wrong when you talk about expansion, but it is not Tai Chi instruction to put the Yi into a follow-through. We have a rich legacy, why not use it?
Well, this is a 5 minutes clip about one thing. Of course you can do whatever you wants to. Use fajin or not, Taiji is about changes, use what's right for the situation. We can go on and on talking about, only in a real situation we know what works and who's better.
@@AlexDongTaiChi I feel like we are getting off on a wrong foot. I am curious about why you advocate a "Fajin Form" and how you think Taiji teaches Fajin. The two clips I have seen have nothing to do with Fajin from my perspective. I hope to understand better about your school's method someday. I hope I am wrong that your approach appears contradictory with my experience of learning FaJin.
It's all good. Thanks for explaining. I mean why not. We practice some forms slow, some fast and some with fajin. That's what we do. The same question can be applied to any form and style. We also practice drills with fajin and individual move. We also do it with a partner. It's hard to get into details writing, but yes. when you have a chance, stop by. @@daryabeygi
But how do they do fajin in real Tai Chi?
Why don't you try to share with us?

Hello Alex. thank you very much for the teaching that everyone can learn, young and old.❤
you are welcome.
1ove Thanks! Gracias!
Your grandfather was of great inspiration to me in my early years of learning and still is, those grounded and powerfully connected postures from lower body to hands, flowing and full with undeniable power. Thanks Alex kindest regards from down here in New Zealand, Rob Lindsay.
