The following are my raw notes from the workshop:

  1. Create the arch in different segments of the body from hand to foot
  2. Don’t move the hand, stretch the elbow from the hand.
  3. Always aim at the largest part of the body since we shoot all over the place, and it’s useless. For now, the torso, later the spine, even later something smaller. Read more

I am very impressed with Steve’s demos, he is able to explain his actions exactly like Master Chen with no deviation. It’s like deja-vu. I have heard the same explanations from Master Chen in a different place at a different time. I can learn so much from him.

The sequence of moves in this form is the same as that in yilu. Although our requirements for the movements seem different, I can see that they came from the same root.
