We have been taking a deep dive in my classes, into our San Zhan form over the past week and a half. I have filmed some of the lessons and will upload them one by one here over the next few months.

In this video, I explain my method of teaching how to close and draw in, using the three external harmonies of the body.
Here is an excerpt from my book about the external harmonies,
“The external harmonies are often described and taught in the following way:
The shoulders harmonise with the hips
The elbows harmonise with the knees
The hands harmonise with the feet
Early on in my training, I learnt a Qigong set called Damo’s Yi Jin Jing; Damo’s Muscle Sinew Changing Classic which develops these pathways. It is widely accepted that Damo’s contribution was the first entry of the fascial system paradigm into Chinese martial arts. Practising Yogis in India were very familiar with this system, and it was the foundation of a lot of yoga practice.
Damo’s Qi Gong set, which was possibly adapted from yoga exercises he already practised, identified a number of different channels and paths in the body that were connected and could be controlled to create movement. These channels became the basis for the meridian system in traditional Chinese medicine. These channels generally went from the top of the body to the feet through the torso. The channels on the front of the body went through the dan tian; the channels on the back of the body went through an area called the ming men. The ming men is a point located on the midline of the lower back below the spinous process of the second lumbar vertebra (L2), roughly opposite the belly button.
The dan tian and ming men area work as computers or controllers that can control the direction, strength and tautness of each of these pathways. The harmonies identify the direction of these strings of tissue and how they should connect. For example, the hand connects through the elbow and shoulder, down through the torso and dan tian, going to the hip, down into the knee and into the foot. Over time, with correct training, the practitioner can control the action of the hand by instigating movement in the foot.”
