- Another glimpse of the past - some of it close to 20 years ago, some of it 15 years ago. Together with my former teacher Wee Kee Jin in NZ receiving ionstructions from him, and later in Vancouver on one of our first trip together there, receiving teaching from Master Sam Tam.
If you are interested in learning Taiji or Qigong with one of the most highly skilled western practitioners of the ancient Chinese arts, Torben Bremann, you can take a look into the program via the link below.
You will be guided through the foundation loosening exercises, standing meditation, taijiforms from different systems to speed up the learning process, partner exercises, important solo practices and much more. The inner core of the program is the system of Master Sam Tam.

This is great. Thanks for sharing. 🙂🙏🏼☯️👊🏼
You are welcome
I loved it.....amazing.
Can you reccomend the best teachers in Vancouver today?
I heard Sam Tam is still alive.
At the moment when the master starts to push, the student stops moving and sometimes even gives a nice rigid target for the master's force to use. @ 4:50 is one of the most obvious moments. Why the student stopped neutralising the coming force, as he's been taught to do during push-hands ? 6:01 is where the student deliberately offers the master his wrist to push into. "My hand is soft and you don't know what to do" -- what a ridiculous concept. If there's no obstacle -- go through with your own push into his sternum. But THEY'VE BEEN TRAINED NOT TO DO THAT. That's the root of this whole game -- STICK TO THE MASTER'S HAND AND FALL BACK WHEN YOU FEEL PRESSURE, DO NOT NEUTRALISE. Is this a proper reflex to practice for Martial Arts usage ? Everybody come to their own conclusion.
Hi, did you miss out on what is going on? As I wrote in the text this is a teaching situation where the focus is more on feeling/sensing what is happening - not trying to fight back or anything. This is an old clip close to 20 years ago and under labatory conditions. But let me asure you the concept in itself can easily be applied which I will be happy to show you if you at some point are in Denmark.
Hi TaijiquanGaoShan,
If you have ever driven in winter and come across ice on the road, then you appreciate what it feels like to feel nothing (no traction to gain leverage with)...when you drive under normal conditions your tyres will find grip...this is the same concept. Your power find find no grip, like a car on ice, you will lose your foundation and are uprooted, without answer.
It can be either (what you promote and what is happening on this video) depending on what is happening in the learning. To receive the issue and absorb it into your body i.e. take an inferior position allows the inferior player to listen to it, you are learning about how the superior issues...where it comes from etc. If you try to yield (defeat or 'fight') then as a young player you have likely stopped listening. Then as you climb in skill, you can arrange hand play where it is all countering...using only the right impulse or clobber him with anything you like...if there is nothing stopping you. If you do the former first, the latter will contain the quality. You will be like a soft spring. Later, the power is very heavy and damaging. But there is an order of learning. You have to have the eyes to see...but novices have no eyes, only the impulse to win and not lose. Chen said invest in losing. There is a lot of depth in that saying. Well worth wondering what that meaning in the application of training. TaiChi players: you need to give up something to have nothing. Nothing is important, if you have something you can't have nothing....and if you have nothing..then you'll find something. Now, when is something nothing, and nothing something?
Wee Kee Jin is being very polite. He’s actually a more skilled tai chi practitioner than Master Tam.
