    Bevel Gear 2

    by Kelvin Ho on 2022/06/04

    Today we did an exercise to rotate the torso horizontally from left to right (first gear), while the arm with the elbow straight as a stick rotated in Ni Chan (second gear).  The second gear’s rotation was driven by the first gear. The result was like how the train wheel turned, and the rod attached to the wheels moved along the rotation without changing direction.

The “dimension” here is different from the scientific definition, more like the “plane” in English. The 5 dimensions are: Read more

    Momentum Force i

    by Yuxin Liu on 2022/03/25

    Momentum force: A force with inertia. Momentum force is simply the force generated by movement. It is an active power. Sometimes this force is unstoppable. What we usually hear is “it’s hard to gather overwhelmed water”, and “the arrow sent out” is this kind of force. In the simplest terms, we throw a stone out, and once it’s out, although in the air, we are no longer able to change its direction or force. Synonyms: active force, dynamic force. Read more


    Being soft inside and hard outside is a movement principle and concept of Chen Style Taijiquan Practical Method. Intuitively, the inside is soft, movable and active. The outside must be harder than the inside so that it can wrap things inside. Thus, the outside is fixed, passive, and a manifestation of the inside.
    This feature is the opposite of the common sense of softness with rigidity, and needles hidden in cotton. The normal understanding of Taijiquan is that it looks soft like cotton, but there is hard steel hidden inside.
    The “softness” of Chen Style Taijiquan Practical Method is hardness to the extreme is softness, not softness in the ordinary sense. At this point, it is likely to be different from other Taijiquan cognition. This is also a major feature of Practical Method. Read more

    Treasure in the Sleeves Assignment-Chen Zhonghua Online Lesson 20220302.

    Hong Junsheng noticed that Chen Fake would put his two hands in the sleeves and move them in strange ways. He asked his master Chen Fake what he was doing. The answer was that he was training. This happened in 1930 in Beijing when Hong was a student of Chen Fake.

    In those days in winter, people were heavily quilted coats with large and long sleeves. They would joint the two sleeves together to form a tube. The two hands are kept inside the tube/sleeves for warmth.

    What Hong saw was Chen Fake rotating his two forearms inside the sleeves. This is the 3rd move of Change Palm Three Times (19th move of Yilu) . Hong later named this exercise Xiu Li Cang Jin, (Sleeve, inside, hide, treasure), like the English saying "Card up the sleeves".

    "Change Palm Three Times" is a type of move, not just a simple technique in Practical Method. The move after Six Sealing and Four Closing, leading to Single Whip, is in fact, a small/brief version of Change Palm Three Times. And you know that this occurs many times in the Yilu form.

    Then of course, you have the Change Palm Three Times (19th move and 43rd move in Yilu).

    Moves that are repeated in the form (both Yilu and Cannon Fist) are important moves.

    Change Palm Three Times type of moves are designed to open up the spine and are used as Zhuang Gong (Standing Post Training).

    Shoulder Blade Stretch Assignment-Chen Zhonghua Online Lesson 20220302
    "In with Elbow" is one of the two only action of Taijiquan moves. Often our elbow cannot come in to the right position. Our untrained elbow, in fact, is very far from its destination. The reason in most cases is because the shoulder blade is not open.

    In this video, Master Chen Zhonghua shows an exercise to open to shoulder blade.

    You have probably heard the idea that one should put an egg in the armpit during taiji training. This concept points students of Taiji to the right direction but not correct position or method.

    In fact, this concept should be expressed as Kai Ye, open the armpit. Kai Ye is a conceptual term that directs the student to move in two ways. One is to separate the arm and the torson with the opening of the armpit so that two lines of energy is created.

    The other is that the bicep and the torso (top of the ribcage) should squeeze together but grind against each other to cause separate in opposite directions.

    Taijiquan has the saying that “yin and yang are mutually rooted”.
    Wang Zongyue said, “Yin does not depart from yang, yang does not depart from yin. Yin and yang benefit mutually and this is the comprehension of energy”.
    Zhou Dunyi of the Song Dynasty said in Taiji Illustration, “Wuji then taiji. Taiji moves and produces yang. Move to the extreme generates stillness, stillness produces yin, and stillness to the extreme generates moves again. Movement and stillness are the roots of each other. Once yin and yang are split, then there are two elementary parts.” Read more

    In push hands, the first thing we need to do is to have peng energy. What does this mean? It requires us to be able to lock the opponent on the touch, confront him, without showing any disadvantages. We mustn’t show any weakness at the first place. Only like this, we will have the confidence to win.
    What is confidence? Confidence is real gong fu. Without it, there is no use if you just feel good about yourself. How to gain real gong fu? Of course it is through years of training.

    Lu, Cai, Lie i

    by Kelvin Ho on 2021/01/14

    Master Chen demonstrated Lu, Cai, and Lie with in-with-elbow in “Shake the Pole”. These three belong to the same group.

    Lu 捋 – You grab the opponent’s arm, pull him in, and throw him onto the other side. There is no severance of the arm in this case.
    Cai 採 – You grab the opponent’s arm, and pull on it quickly to sever it at the shoulder. This is like plucking a flower.
    Lie 挒- You grab the opponent’s arm, and pull him in. He hits your body, which provides a stop to the incoming force. This also allows the arm to be severed at the shoulder.

    Adjust Yourself, Not Your Opponent

    First you make contact, then you adjust yourself, in the end you defeat your opponent. This process is what we generally call “Adjust yourself, not your opponent”.

    On making the initial contact, Peng must be present. As soon as you touch your opponent you must establish superiority over him/her. You must be lose advantage.

    If you succeed in dealing with the initial contact, you already have won half the battle. Where you make the contact, do not move it. You can only make some minor adjustments. The key to success is whether while holding (Peng) your opponent, you can adjust yourself. Beside the point of contact, adjust the rest of your body to the most advantageous position.

    At this point, you can beat you opponent any way you chose to. If it is not the case, your first two steps were not done right.

    KelvinHoProfile14A leader is someone or something that others follow.  If a number of people have to go through a tunnel that is only large enough to fit a person through at a time, the first person who goes through it is the leader, whom the rest of the people just follow. If multiple people try to go through the tunnel at the same time, there will be a jam, and no one can come out the other end. Read more

    When you know how to rotate, you will need to have an anti-reversal lock on your body. This way, you will be able to rotate continuous forward, and won’t lose the gain of your rotation.
