footwork

Dear Bill,
I noticed that when dragon and tiger pierce heaven and earth that there is inherent a figure 8 or infinity symbol in the movement from side to side as one alters the weight shift from heel to heel. It is at first difficult to make it happen but I think it will enhance my experience and hope it is within the playing rules to add that sway as it were rather than just shifting weight. Please comment if you find the time.

HI Algie,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I clearly just missed your post.

I don’t really notice the type of feeling you’re talking about, but it’s fine it you do. All of us are different and may have different experiences from the exercises.

Just remember that you want your hips and knees to stay very stable. So any sensations you get like this should feel more like waves through your stable feet, legs, and body rather than a sway of your hips or legs forward or back or side to side.

Hope this helps.

Bill
