- The Moy Tai Chi set has 108 moves altogether, we are going to explore the first 17. These 17 moves open all the meridian lines, create a flow through the element, and bring energy and vitality into your actions. Try the moves with the video and then turn away from the video so that you can begin to bring muscle memory into the body and let the brain's memory rest. When you embrace the flow of movement for yourself, you will breath easier, move with confidence and begin to find deeper flow in the body with the relaxation into the movements.
Well done!! Thanks! it's been quite a few years 'Practicing' Mr. Moy's 108 'moves'!!....cheers from Canada!
On the brush Knee and twist step, be sure to sink the elbows, otherwise there is no power.
Very nice, though I thought it was to be slower and with turns. This will help me! Thank you!
Thank you for your comment. The speed of this is for demonstration purposes. We adjust the speed based on the intention of the set. To get out of your head, you can move faster and listen to the body movements. To explore the relationship of the muscle to tendon, there will be much slower movement. When learning the set it is important to move so that you are not thinking so much about all the details and loose your connection to the flow. I am not sure about your comment about the turns. Please share more.
@@michellegreenwell My instructor, is a top ranked sinsi. Not sure this is how it's spelled. Her name is Rosalind McDermott. She says it takes 10,000x to Mastery. There are 24 steps. Some of them require repetition and turns. Rooster stands on right leg etc, and other require your feet to turn. All I know is it's going to take me 20,000x to Mastery bc between the feet & arm movements I am so confused. ☺️
@@annettegerage4478 The feet are very important and step at a 45 degree most of the time, and 22.5 degrees some of the time, but the real turning comes from within as you develop a mastery of the outside of the body to the inside awareness. I prefer to think of it as evolving with Tai Chi rather than reaching an end point because our body will change each day based on our emotional and spiritual wellness. Our patience with ourselves is important so that we can be present with where we are and learn and grow from there. It is a very rewarding journey. The motto for Wine Country Tai Chi Society in West Kelowna, BC is "The Journey is the Reward." Enjoy your journey.
HI. My instructor's name is ::Rosalind McLymont. Sorry for the mistake. One thing is she is fabulous. Lord knows she has patience with me.🙂
Leaning upper body forward at first turn to right, without sinking / grounding: Cheng Man Ching would be horrified.
I appreciate you leaving a comment, but you are looking at the technique through the eyes of someone trained in a different form. There are specific reasons for how we do the program we do through Master Moy Lin Shin's work, and as a movement specialist, we understand the sinking and spiraling internal action when we do this activity.
