Dear Greg:
Sometimes “the communication can only be done through Yi not words”.You will fully understand when I let you see and when I let you feel.
But I still can try to have you understand with words.
Technically:
1. Fine-toning your knees’ bending.
2. Hipbones stretch a little outwardly.
3. Inner thigh is adjusted round.
Physically:
Kua’s opening is a kind of feeling
1. The feeling of Qi sinking down to the feet.
2. The feeling of grounded.
3. The feeling of low gravity.
4. The feeling of your top body as light as leaf and bottom as heavy as steel.
Finally, opening Kua or loosening Kua’s techniques is applicable to all postures and actions.
