Beautiful 💜☯️💜

Very nice

Thank you, Shifu

Thank you Shifu for your generous teaching! 🙏🌷

I live in assisted living and I have been isolating the core movements a person more disabled than I can practice. I use Yang and Wu/Hao styles of Tai Chi and my knowledge of Silat and Escrima. I hear people screaming in pain all day and many haven't put their feet on the ground in a long time. I can practice about 5 minutes a day. Love, Mike.

Thank you Shifu.

Thank you Master Yang Jun

It's amazing, shifu. I had just watched one of your videos where you perform as a teenager, under the guidance of you grandfather. Your moves here are still just as young, filled with this youthful energy, as then.
I like the cloud hands circular moving. Always wondered why the steps should only be in one direction, when the move actually offers to take steps in any direction! One question: is the back leg stretched in gong bu? It's difficult to see. In my Yang style school I learned it should not stretch. In Shaolin Qigong I learned many moves that are almost identical with some Yang Style moves, but there, the back leg is stretched. In all Shaolin Kungfu and Qigong the same. Also in Wu style, at least the form I'm learning, stretched, too.
I'm a bit confused about this. In my opinion, it offers both advantages and disadvantages. In a defensive way, not stretching the leg (combined with a broad stance) gives more stability. But less power when attacking, the last, small but powerful push from the back leg is missing when not stretching.
I have to either lean more forward or go more upright when I stretch the back leg. Again, both have advantage and disadvantage. 🙏

Marvelous

It's called the "senior form" but it actually looks a lot more complex and explicitly martial than the traditional form. I like how Master Yang has added more complex footwork and transitions to issue and receive energy in multiple directions.
