thanks from Russia, it was very instructive! your performance is amasing, every movement is seen clearly through the body from the beginning to the end
Thank you very much for sharing this.. I've been practising tai chi for 20 yrs and I feel like your videos are going to take me to another level. Respect.
@@bttr9066 Nothing arrogant about understanding a subject matter you research more than others who don't research whether we are talking about internat martial arts; external martial arts or even plumming!
Thank you for this little gift no matter how long it took to receive. It is obvious that the postal service sent it to the wrong recipient, to that person, use this gentle gift at your peril. Thankyou sifu.
Such detail in each and every movement. I really found this instructional and useful, especially the common mistakes (guilty of ALL charges your honor!). Standing practice will never be the same after this... Thank you very much for sharing this, it is priceless knowledge! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I’m so thankful for you, sharing your experience and this strengthening practice! It develops my Wing Chun, escrima and Qi Gong practice so much...I hope to get the chance to meet you in person. Be blessed, stay healthy and enjoy what you’re doing 🙂 greetings from Germany
thank you for simplicity and clarity in your teaching words and likewise, expression of quality within the form as you have filmed it. Such a valuable teaching and example!
You are certainly a master teacher, and I learned a lot from this, but I sure wish you had worn shorts so that I could see what your knees were doing. Sometimes you remind us of having them 80 to 90% bent. I realized mine were straight and corrected, but had I been able to see your knees the correct stance might have been easier to obtain. Anyway, thank you something refreshing and useful.

Well, I like it , and let me call your attention to Soke Yoshimi´s presentation in Italy, one is about moving the body weight is always recommended to be preceeded by sinking or raising the torso. Best regards, Paul,67
Thank you, Sifu! In some way is there rising and falling at the same time? Sinking like hanging a chain (sinking and suspension). Rising, like stacking coins (rooted and rising). And also, at the same time filling and release, like a balloon. As the air goes inward there is an outward expansion and as air goes out an inward release. all of these together in harmony so that , externally there is little or no movement. Thank you as well for your other teachings on you tube.
I love this exercise. Thank you for posting this video. Could you post the other song gong exercises with explanation? I like your detailed and clear explanation.
"All companionship can consist only in the strengthening of two neighboring solitudes.. and when two people both give themselves up in order to come close to each other, there is no longer any ground beneath them and their being together is a continual falling.."-- RILKE
Perfect timing. I was just wondering this week how to work on improving my song ability. thanks day later: is this movement from one foot to the other in the shape of the top half of a circle the essence of an?
Can you explain the breath like when you’re coming up to the side is that an in Hill or XL and when you’re returning back down to the center is that an XL or an inhaler? Thank you for consideration~:Never mind breath exclamation begins at 10:18
Don't assume you've wasted your time. While sifu Mizner clearly makes these techniques work for him, not all taiji masters would agree. I've studied with several world-class masters who did things differently.
Nah. It's all good. As a music teacher I always said to my students: If you come to my house you can come by car, or you can ride your bicycle here, or you can even walk to my house. The end result is that you have arrived at my house, no matter which way you choose.
@Discover Taiji : What about the posture of the lower back? You keep it tucked in the whole time, or it changes its position while sinking and going up?
Thank you for this video. I wonder, do you align your knee over the toes once you're on one side or does your knee go over the toes? It seem like your are not in zhan zhuang stance (in the intermediate middle position) but a bit upper, is it correct?
Thank you for the video! Just one question, you say that sometimes you break taiji rules as it's song gong. The transfer of weight, upwards and downwards instead of side to side, is that taiji or song gong? (around 6:40)
Dear sifu... While turning on right side when weight is on left leg... is it correct that knee of the left leg goes beyond the toe of the left leg? ...regards
Basically it means relaxing the hips and softening the thigh. However there are degrees of relaxation. So the hips can be more or less closed. The thing you must get right is that the hips stay level - like a milestone. And the hips must never "pop" - that is there should always be, at least, a slight hollow where the hip and thigh come together. Just talking about the qua is not much help if you can't explain what is actually happening. That is something Master Huang always demanded of those students he authorised to teach.
No sliding - only up and and down, and turning. Time for a major re-examination of my Tai Chi. Thank you.
Thank you. This is so helpful for me. It's priceless. What a gifted teacher. Thank you for making this publicly available.
I am student of Huang Tai Chi Chuan. Good to see you spreading the good art. Thanks
You are very kind! I have learned a lot with this lesson! Thanks a lot, Sifu, from Málaga (Spain).
This is a very good video. I started studying this Song state and It helped me more than my teachers! Thank you!
thanks from Russia, it was very instructive! your performance is amasing, every movement is seen clearly through the body from the beginning to the end
Best description on a song exercise I have ever seen

4 years later--did they take you to another level?
@@SureFeelsGood
C'est surtout qu'après 20 ans de pratique découvrir les bases du tai chi, ça en dit long sur la plupart des enseignements actuels
what a generous gift! thank you 😊
True, this is a generous gift for those of us who understand its significance. ;)
Djara you sound a but arrogant to be honest

Hello, Is Song Gong the main practice ? Do you also practice Standing Practice?
Thank you for sharing this information.
Bravo!

Although I recognise a fair amount of the principles here. I can see clearly what charlatans I've wasted time with over the last 20 years.

real good master of internal style would say everything is the same
zawar salim what do you mean?
@MathinusG What do you mean by waste. You trained 20 years TaiChi and what?
Nah. It's all good. As a music teacher I always said to my students: If you come to my house you can come by car, or you can ride your bicycle here, or you can even walk to my house. The end result is that you have arrived at my house, no matter which way you choose.

What’s benefit of this exercise sir?
if exhaling is yang (offensive movement), then the shorter the better?

Taiji :)
Hello Sifu Adam,
Should I use reverse breathing during Song Gong exercises?
no, breath naturally
Thank you 🙏🏻
Thanks . Amazing. Do u have a DVD on all Song Gong exercises. Part 2 onwards.Pl share details.
Hi Dilip! All the videos are available in the form of an online course at DiscoverTaiji.com. They are not available on DVD
Hey adam how do you specifically build the chi?
Dear sifu... While turning on right side when weight is on left leg... is it correct that knee of the left leg goes beyond the toe of the left leg? ...regards
Yes :)
How can I check if " one kua is open and one kua is closed" 5:20". How I should feel when It is closed/open? What does it even mean, opening the kua?
Basically it means relaxing the hips and softening the thigh. However there are degrees of relaxation. So the hips can be more or less closed. The thing you must get right is that the hips stay level - like a milestone. And the hips must never "pop" - that is there should always be, at least, a slight hollow where the hip and thigh come together.
