“Always thinking about the River-
Dakkuan
The unchangeable, the constant, not-judging-
forever-force.”
Exercise:
Watch breath right now,
visualizing pushing the Chi down
Constantly.
This dynamic tension
is centered.
(Iron Palm,) Pushing down on the Upward chi of Earth.
Breathing is the never-ending river that orchestrates chi wherever it is instantaneously needed.
“Make the entire body solid and reactive.”
Dakkuan
“No need to block beyond shoulders.”
Sifu, Grand Master Brian Gray
