Yang Tai Chi 108 Form Instruction Video #27: White Crane Spreads Its Wings

This video brings us back to a movement that we have already learned, so this is essentially a review.  The transition and direction of this movement is the same as 5th movement of this form, so I have included the instruction video for move 5 here as well in case this review is not detailed enough.  However, it is my hope that if you are ready to watch the 27th video in this series, you are familiar enough with the previous movements of this form that a quick review is all you will need to move forward.

Here is the 27th video in this series:





Here is the video that describes the 5th movement of this form (also White Crane Spreads Its Wings) in greater detail, in case you need a more in-depth review:

Yang Tai Chi 108 Form Instruction Video 6: White Crane Spreads its Wings

This is the 6th video in our instruction series for the Yang Tai Chi 108 Form and it presents the move "White Crane Spreads its Wings."  Similar to the preceding postures, this posture shows up multiple times throughout this form.


From this movement a large array of applications that can be derived.  Generally, when you see a move appear multiple times in a form, it indicates that the move has a very important pattern of structure and movement within it that can lead to many uses.

To Your Health,
Andrew Plitt

Yang Tai Chi 108 Form Instruction Video 5

This video covers the posture "Raise Hands and Step Forward" which also shows up in the form again at a later point.  You will find that there are several moves that are repeated throughout this form and some that show up only once.  Because this is a move that shows up again, the more time you spend on it now, the easier it will be to incorporate it later.


To see the full list of the names of each posture in this form, check out our Chinese Terminology page.
