Thank you Master Rich for this great video. For me this is the very best explaination of closing / opening hand . Now I have got the understanding of the movement regarding to Dantien.
Thanks Rich for the new posts. I've been working on my tai chi from a sitting position since my accident and these new videos are giving me something to work on sitting down as well as the other videos that you did for seniors in a sitting position. It looks like many more months of recovery ahead before I can stand again and I miss that ability after all many prior years without it. Peace
Sifu Marantz, you are such a generous teacher! This video is just astonishing - the chi connection between the dantiean and the center of the palm - what vivid explanation of the essence of taiji. I have been watching your clips and have learned so much. you have the most excellent way of explaining the subtle but important core ideas.
