Long Form

May 30 2023

May 2023 updates

Here is an overview of the new videos that are available as of April 2023:

  • Long Form: “22 Step aside flying oblique to Single whip” Another big section, with some repetition but also a few significant differences that are easy to get wrong. In this video, I show the first and second variation separately so you can clearly see how the second time we do this sequence is different from the first.
  • Self-Defense – “Separate hands to Twist the body and kick”: Separate hands is an aggressive entry that allows for many different follow-up techniques. In this video, I demonstrate how to perform the striking and takedown hidden in Twist the body and kick after the entry.
  • Q&A 33 – “Do you have to become an aggressive person to effectively defend yourself”: This is a common question and the short answer is “no”. The long answer needs more nuance and background, which is what I explain there.

March 2023 updates

Here is an overview of the new videos that are available as of March 2023:

    • Long Form: “20 – Snake creeps down to Golden cockerel stands on one leg” This sequence offers both something old and new. You already know how to do Snake creeps down, but Golden cockerel stands on one leg is new. Once you master this sequence, we can make another jump forward in the form with a sequence learned before, but with a twist…
    • Self-Defense – Golden cockerel stands on one leg to White snake spits out its tongue: I showed the basic application of this technique in this video, along with a variation that is a common experience.
    • Q&A 31 ” Complementing a hard style with Tai Chi Chuan”: Many practitioners of hard styles (Karate, Kung Fu, etc.) try to complement their training with the “softness” of Tai Chi Chuan. There are some caveats to take into account when you try that and I go deeper into them here.
