Tai Chi 24 Form Lesson 3 Brush Knee with Todd Martin MD
Tai Chi Yang Style 24 Form Lesson 3. Brush Knee. In this lesson I will teach two common variations of Brush Knee, teaching how to create the movement properly using rotation of the core. Brush knee requires a twisting action of the waist, but one that cannot be seen very easily. That is because the upper waist and the lower waist twist in opposite directions during the strike. The net rotation of the body is very small, so the rotational power of the movement is invisible. I will explain exactly how to do it. I will teach you how to pivot properly and transition from Brush Knee Left to Brush Knee Right and then back again. I will also review which of the Tai Chi 8 Techniques are performed during the movement. Brush Knee is immediately following Crane Cools Its Wings in the 24 Form.
