WVTAA Homy Study - Chi Sao DVD - 100 min.
DVD Contents:
Chi Sao (Floor)
Elevated Chi Sao
Chi Sao Lecture
Comments:
Never intended for release, this DVD shows Darrell Jordan working Chi Sao with 9 of his students. The DVD was intended to be a training aid for these students, and no more. The DVD is 100 minutes long. The radio plays in the background and a class is going on. you mainly see Chi Sao and Chi Sao on a platform. I believe Darrell Jordan had a broken finger during the filming of this. If you are like me you might fast-forward though parts when you get tired of seeing students make the same mistakes, but it's still very interesting and entertaining. If you pay attention you can learn a lot actually.
No commentary during the DVD, but at the end he does speak for 22 mins from the heart about chi sao topics, such as shifting, holding the centerline, running, proper positions for the hands, knees, head, and hips, relaxation, proper energy, conforming to their shape to control them, and much more. |
