You know, I realized over Christmas, this is the first time, in a long time, that I have actually enjoyed training taijiquan....a lot... It is to the point,, for the first time in years, were I feel something is wrong if I do not train my forms I am working on them 2 or more times a day. One day I even did the Wu form I am working on 10 times in one day. The Sun has gotten up to 6 times, and I do both multiple times every day, on average, the minimum I am doing these forms is 8 times a day; 4 Sun, 4 Wu
I am working on a Sun style short form, working to remember my Wu style competition form I once knew, meeting with a push hands group once a week. I'm enjoying the heck out of this, and there seems to be no need for anything else at this point, no Xingyi, no JKD, no Chin, nothing...just Sun and Wu taijiquan.
Started, just started, to figure out the power and how it is generated with the follow step in Sun Style, also figuring out some interesting ways to generate power and some applications in the Wu style too.
Two nights ago, feeling a bit guilty and ungrateful, I decided that I should probably do my Yang forms again, since I have been doing them for over 20 years. Started the long form, just could not get into it at all, stopped and did Sun and Wu and it was all good.
Also discovered that the Wu competition form I did, and I am once again working on, is a combination of Northern and Southern Wu style that was developed by Li Bing Xi. I knew it came form Li Bing Xi, I just did not know it was a combination of Northern and Southern Wu.
