Woow can u be my master plzz

[@naletsanaele]

Thank you 🙏🏾

[@manikumar8892]

4) cross down stance 5) tiger stance I think

[@imogenhall6303]

Drop stance is lying tiger stance in other translations, i am still learning but my partner bought me a book of character translations, each one is made up of pictures, each of them a story or theme. I. E Qi is of the emptiness, rice, and steam... Probably to signal qi coming from nothing, feeding us and returning to nothing. Its a very fortunate coincidence that heat transfer is the basis of entropy, and the only reason why we have one (only one) equation out of all the basic equations for astrophysics that registers time. (3rd law of entropy)... These characters are incredibly lost in translation because they end up so detailed, the understanding of them ends up relative to that person in a bigger way than labels.

azath house i feel you in heart. I mean if I was able to reach to this material when I was in high school. This would make huge difference.

[@user-vb9km7hn1p]

Mishra i’d make sure what shaolin kung fu basics are. I was thinking that shaolin was sth out of this world there were no technique DVDs and i was lacking materials.

My massage teacher, who was also a military nurse, taught us how to utilize Horse and Bow stance during my massage sessions. It has granted me perfect body mechanics and greater strength throughout the years.

Good!❤

I am so glad to find this wonderful video clip. “My Qigong workout for longevity” book has just arrived. Together, it makes perfect training for the 5 stances. Thank you very much, Shifu Yan Lei 🙏💕

[@scottjulie27]

Can you please make a tutorial video on how to tie the yaodai? Your way is the most accurate of all the tutorials I have seen on KZbin. Thank you.

[@STROBdotNET]

I came here to check if our feet should be parallel in horse stance. I see happily that you don't make it parallel. I think that's the best for knees: feet should always align with the knee. Making them parallel would create bad strain on the knees. Sadly many people think feet must be parallel...

[@user-dg6hh4mg8r]

you can do video of how to do splits

Wow. The mass was being transfer in each stance. Very helpful in any situation. Is any stance that the position was lay down or sleep ?

[@YouilAushana]

I like how you emphasize the breath. How can you attack from all these stances or are they mostly awarenesses in the extreme range?

Hi Uriel I have a question∶ when one purchases from Udemy (link above) does it come in the mail? OR is it downloaded to youtube? I visited the link above but it does not say which format (DVD, download, etc). Peace. Eric

[@bajuszpal172]

Excellent tutorial, Thank you Shifu YYan Lei! As a Former Karate instructor, the Bow and arrow stance in Japanesew karate is shoulder wide. To my experience, as a European , less flexibly built person, the shoulder width is a minimum to achieve both our body turn and keep straight left or right, without tension and imperfection in hips.

[@juancarlosmontano1397]

Gracias

[@stevensanders1072]

Thank you brother Orion are there any vids here with shifu or any other monks and or(other sifus) doing modified positioning for these stances here, it would be great if you could provide a few links.

[@jonathansmith-bey6380]

Steven Sanders you can modify the positions yourself, if you aren't close to a qualified teacher. Get as close as you can to the masters form... he has videos you can purchase from his website. If your health issues are severe, you may want to train in something less vigorous.

[@stevensanders1072]

Smith-Bey what's his website so I can buy the vids?

[@Mcammis]

Can someone tell me where to buy those pants?

[@vismaypatel3013]

It's easy, Use long legth socks by wraping your pant....

I brought this on udemy, It is wonderful, I feel very good every time I do the exercises and routines on there.

This should just be called the 5 stances for fire bending👍🏻😁👍🏻

[@4saken404]

I do fire rope dart so I am in some regards an actual fire bender. I def need to incorporate some of this into my art. It's funny tho because I have always dabbled in martial arts but pretty much all I use my fire for is dance.

[@benvindonunescorreia5268]

Sifu, você trabalha com pesos ou sua força é obtida apenas com o peso do corpo?

[@stefanweilhartner4415]

how does zhan zhuang fit into this? can it be replaced by practicing the 5 stances or does it come with something complementary?

[@mitchwilliams8941]

Where do you get your pants?

[@kidsknowledgevideo6043]

Sir I have confusions in left - right while doing it... Okay still I am practicing it 😁😁😁

[@HitsuuTaiga]

Where can i get these shorts?

[@greenman7131]

How wide should i open my hips, or legs. Should i open it as wide as i could?
