Discover the profound teachings of Wuji Qigong as you learn to Move Within your Momentum, not WITH Your Momentum.
Delve into the intricacies of Qigong practice, specifically Wuji Qigong (Wuji means emptiness or a vast void) and understand how it teaches you to harmonize with the flow of your own energy through the balance of yin/yang. Join Susan as she explores the nuances of "Chasing Dragons," a specific and complex Wuji Qigong movement that embodies the essence of moving within your momentum. Gain insights into controlling body movements, shifting awareness, and achieving a balance between yin and yang expressions within your body, not only in Chasing Dragons, but in all Tai Chi and Qi gong movements.
In this enlightening video by Susan Thompson Tai Chi, explore the transformative wisdom that Qigong imparts on the art of navigating your own momentum. Susan expertly guides you through this fundamental concept, unraveling the secrets of moving within, rather than being carried away by, your momentum.
Susan sheds light on the 'non-obvious' aspects of Qigong and Tai Chi, emphasizing maintaining the Tai Chi shape (energy ball) and expanding your awareness to the space around you. Susan offered practical strategies for effective momentum control, empowering you to move in harmony with your energy. Witness these teachings in action as Susan demonstrates with a student, taking the student off balance with the lightest touch. This showcases the power of mind-body connections in creating balance and strength in your movements.
As the video progresses, Susan leads you into a meditative perspective, encouraging a profound connection with your body, energy, and surroundings.

that was excellent and very interesting. Do you hips move side to side or are they moving in a curve that follows the curve of the arms? (or something in-between that links the feet which are parallel and the arms that are curved? Or something else?). I tried different variations- and found it interesting to compare them.

Thank you, Andrew. The hips are rotating a bit as well. There is very little side to side. Just incidental weight shift due to the rotation. Chasing Dragon's is actually a very complex movement. It is subtle. Keep experimenting as you did. Listen to your body and it will help direct you. This movement is sort of like wringing a washcloth from foot to hand on a diagonal. Gently though! :-)

@@InternalTaiChi thanke for the reply. It's a very interesting set of physical, intent and awareness movements. I'd been reaching one hand, fingers extended, by releasing from the other foot and letting that go up through my body (across my back) to my finger tips. Moving with emphasis of awareness on the opposite fingers was a fascinating difference (and also experimenting with rotating my palms so that one faced down the other up, rotating as I moved to the other side.

@@AndrewUKLondon Yes, it sounds like you are feeling alot of it already! Excellent. It is a lovely movement full of spirals. Too many people put their awareness on the obvious hand/foot and then feel too heavy on the weight bearing side. Keep up the good work! Thanks for sharing.
