You are going to be trapped. It stays here until this can do more, until this can do more. And now, from there. No move, only rotate downward. And no, too much. As you do that, stretch a little bit and go down a little bit, then turn a little bit, stretch a little bit, go down a little bit. And then make this bigger. Yeah, yeah. Can you see you are still fitting me, if it’s like this, you don’t fit anymore here.

Can you see it fits, fits, now totally lock here. Only do this here. No, based on here, you are based on here. But too bent. Too bent. Here. Now, only rotate here. When i fight you, you rotate. The shoulder has to be totally rotational.

Go. No. This is a negative circle. You rotate this way. Rotate this way. You finished the first half already. Go. On the way out now. Yeah, see, you are pushing, right? Rotate. Rotate. It’s all here. It’s here this way. So this is the motion, without the torso. It’s this motion.

Watch me. Just like. Yeah, rotate it. This way. Yeah, yeah, this is the motion, the whole body is with it. But now go. Can you see, it is the motion without my head, without here? That’s the. It’s not like this. Okay. A little bit tighter. Yeah. No. Stay here. Tighter, no move. And now you feel that? So this is one piece, actually you lock it up, like a screwdriver. And when I screw here it goes there. Stronger, yeah, don’t move, stronger. Stronger, stronger, just hold in position, no movement, no rotation, no movement. It becomes once piece.

So this power goes to here. If you move, it won’t go. Feel that? So when i lock you here, don’t move here, don’t push me, only rotate it. Yeah, feel that? You still bent it. No bending. Rotate. No, you bent it. Grab me. Two hands to feel. See when you did it here you bent here, it’s lost. Can you feel this rotation goes here? And it’s from here.

Go. No, no, no push either. Just lock in space. Yeah, that’s it. No, no, you moved again. Lock. That’s good. Only rotate here. Feel that now? So one hundred percent comes here. Because this does not move. When you are doing it, you do this, is lost, or you bend it, it is lost. Lock, rotate. You moved again. So train to, train to deliver that power without movement.

Open. That’s it, don’t move. No, no, you moved. One piece. No, you moved. It’s very hard. Isolate.

Don’t move, lock it. Use this hand, grab it. No movement, this shape, locking into this shape, put a cast on it. And see, that move goes there. If you move, it’s lost. No, lock it, no, lock it. Hm, you feel? It went there. Understand that now?

To open your shoulder, you have to understand in our system, body parts cannot move. Only joints can rotate. So this is the screwdriver. So you squeeze here, with that hand, so you have space. Now, if you’re standing here, we go like this here. Can you use this hand? And then touch here.

Many fingers. Half. Half so you can feel this side and this side. And now brian grab me here and here. On the squeeze and then rotate me this way. And when he does that is here.So the beginning, you can’t separate, you do this. When he squeezes, it is like this. This is the motion. Now i don’t want this to toss. It goes into one spot. But now go again, you all go like this, it’s lost. And now go, you are tight, it is lost. But this rotation, can you see it goes to the finger.

And now, gradually, this is open. Go again. Can you see? I don’t have to use my waist anymore. Can you see it rotates? And to tell you something scary, my shoulder can rotate three hundred and sixty. You cannot do that yet.

That’s very good. See, when i make a joke, you guys say, oh, he can do 360. I know when i tell you something real, you won’t believe me. So. Not even your hand, your hand cannot even do 360. There’s a certain point you adjust a little bit.So the 360 on the shoulder is two halves. And the two halves are very very difficult to do. Even. Everything we do in taiji is difficult. The difficulty is, every movement has a catch. That catch is something not you are not used to.

Once you are used to those key catches, no movements are difficult. So the 360 here is. So if this is your shoulder. It cannot do 360. The other 360. It can only do this. It cannot do all of the 360 because it’s not an independent. It’s attached to your body. So you assume it can do this one. It cannot do this one. Because this side here is linked to your torso. So what you do is you must understand here and here.

Two halves so you can spin like this. You spin half way. You lock one dot, you switch to the other. So now watch here. So you lock this one here. You spin. Can you see lock this one, you spin, you have a range. Let’s say even only here, because the two might not be one hundred percent 50/50. You are here and now at this point you lock here, and you can do this. This is how all movements are done.

And this is called a distinguishing or splitting yin and yang. When you are still, you are all on this mode. That’s why i touched you. When i touch you, you are like this. When you are moving both, then you have to, i say, go backward, then you are moving both. You haven’t done anything. It has to be this way. And then lock here. Then you can do this.

Do you understand that? It has to be sequential to do it two times or three times, and is progressively going forward? And you see, this were here. And then when you do this here, it’s progressively continuous, otherwise you are all capable of doing this. And this means nothing. And once you understand this, this is the gear shifting. This is called the shift in taiji. Without this, you are continuously wobbling.

Can you see here? Now you grab me because you were grabbing me before. So you grab me the same way. Full bottom. This way. Yeah, hold. Okay. So this one here, can you see this here? Now, this is here. And this is there. At that point here, and when i went like this here, i already turned, finish it. If i go like this and this, i did not do anything.

Now, you understand? Once i’m here. This stops. I only use this one to go there. That’s the trick. Over here. Do this. Do this. Yeah, that’s the lock. You now. Come here. And do the opposite. Put a hand here. Because he’s pulling, and you put in here. Because my next move is going to be here.

So now this one here, that’s it. So you are there attach yourself there. I’m working with him. You just leave there. I’m going to use you later. Can you feel this? No, lock it. Be strong. That’s it. By doing this, he locked the middle. Can you see the middle part. So i do this here. Ok, stronger, stronger. When i do this here, pull.

你将被困住。它停留在这里，直到可以有更多的（范围）为止，直到可以有更多的（范围）为止。现在，从那里。不动，只能向下旋转。不，太多了。在这样做时，先拉伸一点然后向下一点，然后再旋转一点，然后拉伸一点，然后再向下一点。然后这里变大。是。你能看到你仍然合着我吗，如果是这样，你就不再合上我了。

你能看到它合着吗，现在完全锁定在这里了。只做这个这里。不，基于这里，你基于这里了。但是太弯了。太弯了。这里。现在，只在这里旋转。当我与你对抗时，你旋转。肩膀必须能完全旋转。

走。不，这是一个反圈。你往这边转。往这边转。你已经完成了上半部分。走。现在出。是的，瞧，你在推，对吧？旋转。旋转。都在这里，这里这边。所以这是动作，没有躯干。是这个动作。

看着我。就像。是的，旋转它。这边。是的，是这个动作，整个身体都跟着。但是现在走。可以看到，是动作没有带我的头，没有这里吗？就是这样，不是这样的。好的。紧一点。是的。不，待在这里，更紧，不要动。现在你感觉到了吗？所以这是一个整体，实际上你像螺丝刀一样将其锁定。当我拧到这里时，它就会到那里。用力，是的，不要动，用力。用力，只是保持住位置，没有动，没有转，没有动。它变成了一个整体。

因此，这个力传到了这里。如果你动，它不会过去。感觉到？当我将你锁定在此处时，不要动这里，别推我，只是转。是的，感觉到吗？你还是曲肘了。没有弯。旋转。不，你曲肘了。抓住我。两只手来感觉。看，你在这里时，你曲肘了，就丢了。你能感觉到这种旋转到这里吗？它是从这里来的。

走。不，不，也不推。只是在空间中锁定住。是的，就是这样。不，不，你又动了。锁住。那很好。只在这里旋转。现在感觉到吗？所以百分之一百从这里来的。因为这不会动。当做的时候，你这样做，就丢了，或者你曲肘了，也丢了。定住，旋转。你又动了。练习到保持不动地传递力量。

打开。就是这样，不要动。不，不，你动了。一个整体。不，你动了。这很难。分离。

不要动，锁住它。用这只手抓住它。没有任何动作，这种形状，锁定在该形状上，打上石膏。看，那个动作到了那里。如果你动，它就丢了。不，锁住它，不，锁住。嗯，你有感觉吗？它去了那里。现在明白了吗？

要开肩，你必须明白，在我们的系统中，身体部位不能动。只有关节可以旋转。这是螺丝刀。你用那只手挤这里，所以你有空间。现在，如果你站在这里，我们这样。你能用这只手吗？然后触摸此处。

很多手指。一半。一半，所以你可以感受到这一面和另一面。现在，布莱恩在这里和这里抓住我。在挤压的同时，往这边转我。当他这样做的时候就在这里。所以一开始，你不能分开，你做这个。当他挤压时，就是这样。这是动作。现在我不希望这晃。它去了一个点。但是现在再来一次，你们所有人都这样走，它丢了。现在走，你紧，它也丢了。但是这种旋转，你能看到它到了手指上吗？

现在，渐渐地这里开了。再来一次。你看到吗？我不必再用腰了。你看到它旋转了吗？告诉你一些吓人的事，我的肩膀可以旋转三百六十度。你们还不能这样做。

这是非常好的。瞧，当我开玩笑的时候，你们会说，哦，他可以做到360度。我知道当我告诉你一些真实的事情时，你不会相信我。甚至你的手，你的手甚至都无法完成360。在某个点上你调整一下。肩膀上的360是两半。而且这两半很难做到。甚至。我们在太极拳中所做的一切都是困难的。困难在于，每个动作都有一个着。那个着是你不习惯的。

一旦你习惯了这些关键的着，就不会有任何困难。所以这里的360。如果这是你的肩膀。它不能做360。另一个360。只能做这个。它不能完成所有360，因为它不是独立的。它依附在你的身体上。你认为它可以做到这个。它不能做到这个。因为这边与你的躯干相连。因此，你要做的就是你必须明白这里和这里。

两半，所以你可以像这样旋转。你旋转一半。你锁定一个点，然后切换到另一个。所以现在看这里。所以你把这个锁在这里。你旋转。你能看到锁定此位置吗，旋转，你有一定范围。让我们说仅仅是这里，因为两者可能不是百分之百地50/50。你现在在这里，此时你已锁定在这里，你可以做这个。这就是所有动作的完成方式。

这就是所谓的分阴阳。当你仍然，你们都处于这种模式。这就是为什么我碰你。当我碰你时，你就是这样。当你同时动两者时，我说，向后走，然后你们都同时动。你们什么都没做。一定是往这边。然后锁定在这里。然后，你可以做这个。

你明白吗？它必须按顺序执行两次或三次，并且会逐步往前吗？你看，这是在这里。然后，当你做这个时，它会逐渐连续进行，否则你们都能做这个。这没有任何意义。一旦你了解了这一点，这就是换挡。这被称为太极拳的转关。没有这个，你将一直晃。

可以看到这里吗？现在你抓住了我，因为你之前就抓住了我。所以你以同样的方式抓住我。全部底部。这样。嗯，抓住。好的。所以这里这个，你能在这里看到吗？现在，这是这里。这是那里。在这一点上，当我在这里像这样走时，我已经转了。完成它了。如果我这样这样，我什么也没做。

现在你懂了？一旦我在这里。停，我只用这一个去那里。那是诀窍。在这边，做这个。做这个。是的，那是锁住了。你现在。过来。做相反的事情。把手放在这里。因为他在拉，而你放在这里。因为我的下一个动作将在这里。所以现在这个是，好了。所以你在那里附着着。我在和他一起做动作。你就留在那里。我待会儿再用。你能感觉到吗？不，锁住它。用力。对。通过这样做，他锁定了中间位置。你能看到中间部分吗？所以我在这里做。好，用力，用力。当我在这里这样做时，拉。
