0:30 Fix two ends, break the middle: The idea is to put a stick on two bricks, and break the middle of the stick.
0:55 Master Chen demonstrated Front Trick and Rear Trick. If the opponent is strong at the contact point, stretch out the opponent by rotating at the contact point, hit the middle. Don’t fight at the contact point. Stretching the opponent is to make the stick very stiff, so the middle is vulnerable. If our contact (end) point is loose, the opponent’s middle is very strong.
1:47 If the opponent’s contact point is loose, we can get him anywhere we want. If the opponent’s contact point is strong, rotating at the contact points pops the opponent off the ground, this means that opponent lost integrity. We must always maintain integrity in fighting. Integrity is the ability to connect hands and feet back to dantian.
3:40 Master Chen futher demonstrated what integrity meant. Our fight is always looking for the opponent’s position where integrity is lost. If we strike the opponent before reaching the point where he loses integrity, it makes him stronger.
5:38 Master Chen focused on the opponent’s centre, and stretch out the opponent’s centre.
6:00 When Master Chen touched the opponent, it was not random, he had the opponent’s centre in mind. He must aim at the opponent’s centre. In this case, he locked the outside, and stretched the inside to facilitate the aiming.
