you will never fins many better passing on honestly and clearly this type of material about their style. if you do , or even find someone who gets close to him, please let me know.
Jordan Lavigne I think that Adam Mizner has change his way of teaching in recent years. I preffer Master Chen clear way of teaching. Mizner is a little esoterical i think, but a side that one of the best out there for sure.
@@jonathannaef2214 I just watched this entire thing again, and another thing that struck me was at 22:50: "And actually some people would say Tai Chi is the upper body of Hsing I, lower body of bagua."
Teaching all around the World makes money for the teacher but the "students" never end up "qualified" to apply the true art. The problem with teaching all around the World is that most of the people get far too little actual training. It's the physical equivalent of reading a chapter or two of a book on the subject. Read the book without the hundreds to thousands of hours of professional instruction and practice is useless. Compare the training that soldiers get, that police get, that bodyguards get, that MMA fighters get, and you'll understand what I just wrote. Soldiers, police, bodyguards and actual fighters all get the real training. People attending the latest martial art workshop do not!
Pretty sure you'll find muscle, I mean everybody has muscle right? 20 out of 10 for talking though, I mean wow economy of movement might have put a lot of that in a nutshell, entertaining all the same I guess...
@@blockmasterscott Here's the exact quote from Wolfe Lowenthal's memoir of his time as a young student of the Professor. (Check out the Amazon preview of "There Are No Secrets" - it's included along with Robert Smith's intro). For a brief time Professor Cheng took up bowling. I never watched him, but it was fun imagining him in his robes flinging the ball down the alley. Then one day he announced that he had given up the sport. "Why, Lao Shr?" "I'm an old man, past 70. The ball was just too heavy for me." The wonder of Tai Chi Chuan is that, theoretically, it should not involve any use of strength...
Powerful, intelligent, exact, open-minded master - great teacher!
that's the kind of teacher I want-practical, talks with sense, and gives excellent directions!
Any connection you have with Chen Xiaovang or Chen Zikiang ?
great teacher, great teaching!
Outstanding!!

Sifu Adam Mizner has shown me incredible practical understanding of yang/CMC taijiquan

13:56 "... you notice that I've been training since 1979 and I can pretty much guarantee that you can't find any muscles on me".
ChengManChing i thought it was a good quote too, one of the first places i landed on in my initial skim through
