Push Hands was demonstrated at 2019 Canadian Cultural and Martial Arts Festival
I am 64 years old and have been on long-term disability for over 10 years due to a form of arthritis called Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS). I previously studied and practiced several external martial arts and they all eventually made my AS symptoms worse. I have had the disease my whole life but only diagnosed in the ’80′s. It became so bad at one point I was bed ridden for almost 2 years. It causes difficult symptoms in multiple body systems. I have had to get steroids injected into my eyes a few times to bring down inflammation. The disease primarily fuses the spinal vertebrae together, which of course reduces, restricts and eventually collapses the vertebral separations so they cannot move normally, or at all. I have tried physio, multiple drug therapies, meditation and exercise all with no or next to no improvement in my symptoms.

伦敦讲座London Practical Method Workshop 20190323-Group
For more than a year now, Sven Gusowski from Pratical Method-Berlin visits us each monday at our office at Freie Universität Berlin (FU Berlin) to do fifteen minutes of basic foundations exercises. We basically do variations of the positive circle and learn movements that can be easily repeated at home or anywhere.
Our team is quite pleased with his training, feeling improvements in terms of tension and stress relief after a relatively short period of time. Many of us managed to significantly reduce different sorts of muscular aches and pains. I myself was suffering from a tennis or rather “computer-mouse” elbow which disappeared entirely by doing the basic foundations exercises Sven is teaching us.
Basic foundations exercises work and I can strongly recommend Sven and his Practictal Method.
Hi everyone!
I have been practicing Yang style Tai chi and qi gong for the past 5 years and recently have very much interest in the practical method.
I practice the foundations and learn the yilu choreography.
My spine structure shows major lordosis and kyphosis with forward head posture. The years of practice improved it maybe a little, but it seems that my spine would be able to be improved up to a point.
A straight spine is crucial for Tai chi capability… and every once in a while I get discouraged. I practice everyday, and it is a major part in my life, so I´m sure I would never stop.
Please shed some light, about the importance of spine alignment.
Every comment would be appreciated.
Thank you!
Alon
