Very strong and excellent performance of Master Dong.His stance and alignment are immaculate.Power emits from every movement.One can understand the opening and closing of every form with focussed energy.Bravo to see such excellent taiji!
Should I call this Dong style? Thanks everyone for keeping up the hard work and carrying on the tradition. I will call this Yang style! It looks a lot like what Yang Jun does. Anyhow, I really enjoy my study here! I'd like to thank everyone involved with this style and trip once more again. I want to learn a Yang and Wu/Hao form! I don't like forms much but I watch those videos repeatedly. I know I watch this form over and over.
1sunstyle This is a traditional Yang style 85 forms Tai-Chi Quan, not supposed to be called by the Dong style as martial arts should be followed by the creator in respect of it’s linage. I learned the same forms as his father.
I thank you for carrying on the tradition. This is so beautiful to watch while fasting. I am drinking ginseng tea on this fast. Ginseng is my favorite herb. I have tested 156 herbs and tried over 400. Love, Mike.
Every time I watch this I pick up another gem! Many thanks to all those in Tai Chi. My own experience of Tai Chi is 11 years in the works. I read theory and principle and studied video and transformed my practice of weaponry into Tai Chi. I started learning Escrima and Silat 27 years ago. This was my best method as there were no qualified teachers in my area. Love, Mike Neidlinger.
There is a major difference between this man and Jun......Dong's father fought and left a legacy that means taijiquan is still respected here in Thailand as a martial art. Dong Huling's father Dong/Tung Ying Chieh was a disciple of Yang Cheng Fu so this branch of the lineage is unbroken i.e. lineage holding Sifu to inner door disciple.
Dong is definitely excellent with fighting aspect of Tai Chi. I just picked up two gems watching this again! I discovered Buddhism in a Thai restaurant they had free literature. I want to become a monk in Thailand! I have been eating once a day. I just ate. Right now I am studying The Tibetan Book Of The Dead. I grew up in the Hollywood Hills because my father was a famous musician. I grew up with a celebration happening every day. Constant party going on. I moved to a small farm town to escape the gang violence and smog. I used to be a professional glassblower.
Bingo as I was saying ever changing the way it should be. He was a true Tai Chi master. This is how I see myself in my mind but the body is not willing, but I am new to Tai Chi only been playing for thirty years starting in 1990 at the young age of 57. Any way I still believe most true masters kept trying to improve the forms and kept them alive. Only experts are dogmatic and do not change. Not releasing that the form they do is what their teacher learned at one point in their teachers teaching of their teachers teaching all the way back Yang Lu Chan who changed what he was taught by his teacher who taught what he was taught at a period of time.
not so much, that is true. but his Tai Chi was heavily influenced by martial arts and was suppose to be preparing the body for movements in a combat situation. meaning dynamic postures ready to receive and attack.
@@CT2507 i think this is ireal explanation! Try this in boxing and you face will be hurt quickly ! No, to lean like that is a bad Tung family habit, father did the same and son too. How you can keep gravity center down like that, and good balance, and roots? Which martial art he practice, different of tai chi ? This man move higth and low because he try to much to do big steps and many times he is moving is arms in no conexion with the trunk. His form is the typical simplified form taught by Yang Chen fu to Tung Ying Chieh, with the lost of all circles, spirals and complex steps. Poor tai chi ! And all family is not better : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wyymRfwuDGg.html and ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SAXcGAPOzZ4.html So i got this comment from Mr CT2507 by my Gmail adress but i do not know why, this do not appears here : "Hsiao Ming u have no idea what u are talking about. this form of Tai-chi gives great strength and is also very efficient in combat at the level of mastery. Kai Yin Tung fought about 10 mafia dudes with this grandfather in Thailand once. 2 against 10 and one of them was so badly hurt in his back that the granddad had to perform chiropractic on him just to put his spine back in place before they could send him back home. i have practiced this system for 4 years with a good instructor and know the strength that comes from it first hand. my instructor who was taught by Kai Yin, was training a couple of bouncers who were used to throw people around, and they couldn't lay a finger on him. and in turn my teacher couldn't lay a finger on Kai Yin. so your frame of reference is totaly superficial. comparing what u see here with boxing is silly as all the moves in this video are for building strength, flexibility, rooting, and so on, and not for dealing with boxing applications. the reason why he can lean that far is because of the long steps which lowers his point of gravity considerably. i don't see that his arms ever are moving without the connection of his gravity center or trunk... show me where in this video? " CT2507 you look like the type to believe in legends and myths rather than thinking by himself. Dong ying chieh die in 1961 at only 64 years after a long illness and at this time Kai yin was 20. So when they fight togother again 10 mafia dudes ? When Kai Yin whas 18, 16 or 15 years old ? Sure this is true heros family! All almost chinese famillys practissing martial arts carry this type of story. So do not believe in what you was not witness by yourself. I practice some traditionel wu shu, like hung gar, bai he chuan, tan tui, and there is now some years, i won (and lost to) many fight in true life as in championships. I practice tai chi since 30 years, went 3 time in China for training (specialy in Yongnian for Yang tai chi) and i can say there no much good teachers now there, and do not speak of true masters ! Famous people as Chen zhenlei, Wang xian or Yang jun smoke like steamers, have short breath, and are full of tricks when it come to tui shou. You caan see in this video many movements of the arms who move without to be driving from the waist, like in all move "brush leg and push monkey" when he lift the hand before to push forward. Same for "step backward and push monkey". And go up and down have nothing to do with lower the gravity center, it is just for to do more long steps and it make lost the connexion with ground. And dear friend you say one thing and its opposite : first in your answer to Smith : "his Tai Chi was heavily influenced by martial arts and was suppose to be preparing the body for movements in a combat situation. meaning dynamic postures ready to receive and attack" and to me : "comparing what u see here with boxing is silly as all the moves in this video are for building strength, flexibility, rooting, and so on, and not for dealing with boxing applications". You know what coherence means ? Besides, I encourage readers of these posts to visit your channel then mine, where you can see this : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_PhH_Rd6pgc.html Have a good time in your video game and next time answer here, do not hide please.
@@hsiaoming1874 Showing slow sets has no meaning. Please show some exercises like tui-shou or others with someone. Besides, this is taï-chi-chuan, not taï-chi . Here we have some good teachers, one learned in 68 69 70 in Honolulu with master Tung Hu Ling but we have also plenty of bad teachers. The most important is Chi, isn't it ? Slow set is mainly for meditation and spiritual virtues, and chi.
@@unechaine1 First, sorry for my english. But i will try to answer. Slow sets have a lot of meaning ! It is in slow motion that you improve your balance, relaxation of every muscle possible, coordination, unification of body parts into a functional unit with a central axis (connected to the ground below and to Heaven above), a hub (the waist) which directs and transmits the movement to the extremities, that you learn and improve concentration in motion, directed intention, jing flow from feet to other body parts, to gather the vital energy (chi) and to expand it, to concentrate it, to make it circulate and to transmit it according to the various operations which one can apply to it in the slow forms (open and close the three arcs, go up, go down, movement centripetal or centrifugal, small and great celestial revolution, and much more ..). As you say slow forms can be for meditation (in a special state of heart, conscience and mind) and chi, and this not a little affair and have a direct relation to the martial practice of tai ji quan (besides we can also say this is not tai chi chuan if we are picky !). Technical skill, speed, muscular strength, hardness, tension, are not the characteristics of the martial efficiency in tai ji quan, while flexibility, adherence, rooting, relaxation and energy mobilized are. And it is in slow forms that these capacities hare developed. Slow forms are fondation Then, among other techniques, we learn to use these spécial abilities in exercises such as sticky hands, in static steps or on the move. Then, among other techniques, we learn to use these abilities in exercises such as sticky hands, in static steps or on the move, then in other coded exercises, until free combat. Slow forms are the foundations which allow to develop the real martial efficiency of tai ji quan, to ignore this is to not know the specifics of ta ji quan martial art and never to realize them. And look at this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ik9dTzLtzdc.html Kai Ying Tung do not lean as this.
This is some of the best tai chi! Tai chi made me a much more gentle and mellow person. I know weaponry and once yelled at my dad for asking me a question about martial arts!
