“John Upshaw Yilu Correction Series: Turn Right Pound Mortar” Online Video Purchase

This is my first review of Kelvin’s lessons and worthy of a bit longer than usual review. Without hesitation, I recommend all watch this and learn along with this video and other videos posted. His clarity of thought is most helpful consistently explaining what is fixed and what is not. Emphasis is on where the action is derived from whether it be kuas, chest opening, elbow in, feet, dantien, etc. While you many say to yourself, you “know” this already, it’s safe to say you don’t. That is because it is also the degree to which you know and how clearly you can demonstrate it. Demonstration is easier than being able to use it in a real situation. While Kelvin does not have Master Chen’s abilities (who does?!), his ability is impressive. His dedication and knowledge will help all of us improve to a much higher level where we can demonstrate clearly and begin to use more of our body parts that we don’t properly use both in the form and in push hands practice. Thank you for this gift.
