In this video, Master Chen Zhonghua mainly focused on establishing a relationship between the front hand and the shoulder. This relationship is an invisible line. Once the two points line up, there will be power and the arm movement will become a stretch.

Master Chen Zhonghua’s Online lesson on August 27, 2020. This lesson focused on the following topics:
1. The rear foot, rear kua, front kua, front elbow, front hand will form a straight line 45 degrees upwards. This line does not connect to the upper body. This is an essential part of body postural change.
2. The shoulder cannot move forward with the arm.
3. The front kua pushed the front vertical line up all the way to the head, while the front shoulder pushes downward to form two opposite vertical lines: one up and one down.
This lesson also corrected many students online.

When the body becomes accustomed to moving through the forms in a connected way, the structure of the body will naturally begin to tighten up. As a result, the over exaggerated stretching movements previously used to open up and recondition the body should be adjusted and made smaller and tighter. Read more
Twisting the towel is one of the basic foundation exercises of the Chen Style Taijiquan Practical Method system. it is also called the four-cardinal yin yang split.
Here are my thoughts on this question. There are two parts to the answer:
Chen Style Taijiquan Practical Method pays a great deal of attention to the lines on the human body. No matter in the performance of the routines, or in push hands, the body will naturally form energy lines. Some lines are formed quite naturally while others are formed gradually only after specialized training.

One concept which seems to come up in almost every lesson and principle Master Chen teaches is connection. But what does “being connected” actually mean? How do we achieve it and what are the benefits of being connected? I think these are all important questions that any serious Chen Style Taijichuan Practical Method student needs to explore and understand in order to gain a deeper understanding of this complex art. While most practioners seem to focus on the external choreography of the art, which is the first step and the foundation of the Yilu, I think the answer to what connection is can only be found by focusing on what happens inside the body. Taiji is, after all, an internal martial art!
Master Chen corrected circles of 12 students. Good video to see if you have the same mistakes.
