20200212 Afternoon Session
Attendees: Master Chen, Brian C, Paul J, Rory T. Later on, John S, Paul P.

We had Thai for lunch.

1. In a 90 minute class there must only be 20 mins instruction. The rest is for training. Do not teach like it is a workshop.
2. Elbow. Walking back from lunch Master said my elbow looks ok. But after touching it was not. Master demonstrated the elbow going into the hand. There is a trajectory. Too loose and it is off. Too tight and it is stuck.
3. Cloud Hands. The shoulder cannot move.
4. Open the Elbow Exercise. I worked on this with Master while he was sitting down. The elbow aims in the plane of the triangle. Lock two ends and move the middle.
5. Increasing the size of the move. The front kua turns all the way towards the back. Master worked on this with me.
6. Master added one with his chin. Today I saw for the first time the action of the stretch was the same as other parts of the body.
7. The chin and side of the head were used as two separate contact points.
8. To break. Master demonstrated to break the shoulder using two dots lining up. He then showed to break the waist (integrity). It caused me to jump.
9. True separation of Yin and Yang must create something. It creates Taiji. This Taiji must be the identical as Master Chen / Hong / Chen Fake. This is why it is called a lineage.
10. Indicator: Your hair must stand on end. Story about Cai Shengye pushing in the dark with Master Chen.
11. Three sticks rotating becomes five dots.
