Good evening Susan. What a beautifully instructed Sun Style Tai Chi: Leisurely Tying Coat with Brush Knee. You always make what seems impossible, possible. You always give so much of knowledge, experience and above all yourself so freely. From one to another. Thank you. Julie X 🙏🌞

Really appreciate your thorough teaching of a single/double form and would love to see more of these in any style to eventually tie them together into a coordinated flow. I believe to understand core principals but would like to venture into learning forms online with quality instruction like yours.

Come join my Thursday live stream class. I teach the Sun Style Tai Chi in that class. You can give it a try and see if you like it. Most people that try it are surprised as to how effective it is and how welcoming my students are. Just send me an email.

Oh My Goodness What a Great Video! Thank You So Much.

[@InternalTaiChi]

Thank you so very much! Next week I will be releasing another video on leisurely tying coat. I will be teaching a refinement of that movement. I hope you enjoy that one as well! Thanks for commenting.

[@margaretphang5424]

can you give a demo (step by step) on Fair Lady working Shuttles. Thanks.

[@InternalTaiChi]

Thank you for asking. I will add to my list of requests. :-). I do teach the 73 Form on Thursdays at 10am central time via live stream if your interested. We just got done with the shuttles.

Your Sun Form is very nice. Sun style traces back to the Wu brothers. The Wu brothers learned from Yang Luchan, and then from Chen Qingping. Yang’s original instruction was from Chen Changxing in the Large Chen Frame. Qingping taught the Small Chen Frame. The Wu brothers adopted many of the Small Frame characteristics including its emphasis on opening and closing. Sun style is also famous for showing Taijiquan’s live/usage stepping. The following step you point out being one form of this. All in all a very nice demonstration of the form.

Thank you for your insight, additional information and positive comments!

When pushing at the end, it’s look’s like your body goes backwards or body goes back and arm goes forward. What going on?

[@InternalTaiChi]

You have an astute eye. Yes you are correct. If I moved forward with the "push" it would be too much forward. Every forward expression needs to be balanced with an absorbing or backward movement, or better yet an expansion. If done correctly then someone pushing on my forward hand would be moved backwards with my own absorbing and expanding energy. I hope this makes sense. If I did all forward I would easily be pulled off balance by the opponent.

@@InternalTaiChi thanks. Sounds good.
