Below are videos of small groupings of moves, with commentary, that can be worked on together. The videos are pretty much lined up in the order that these moves show up in the form.
Please note that these videos were shot for one particular course, so some of the commentary will relate specifically to that class. Don’t worry if you hear something that doesn’t quite mesh with what is going on in your particular class – the movements themselves are all the same.
Salutations through Single Whip Please note that this first video is longer and includes many moves. In the near future, I will add several smaller videos of the moves contained in this first video with those moves broken down.
