Push Hands and Kung Fu Moves 1 and 2 – Ma Hong

Master Ma Hong delivers excellent and very specific information on how to practice the applications of the Tai Chi style. He shows separate movements expressive of power, applications of these moves, and detail aspects of the Tai Chi set. This series is excellent and clearly aimed at those who want to benefit from Ma Hong’s definitive and detailed insights into the clockwork working of real Chen Taijiquan. This is PART TWO of a two part series totalling four dvds (each box contains two DVDs). In this DVD Ma Hong shows key stances for power issuing, repeated exercises for specific movements and general applications of those movements to martial use. There are also sections on Taiji Ruler as a training device (we had the pleasure of learning this when Ma Hong came to California), Taiji staff (long pole) and leg Tui Shou. Many ideas for improving one’s skill. He also shows the Taiji Wheel, an unusual instruments shaped like a cast iron wash basket filled in the bottom third by concrete. English subtitles.
