Master Yang demonstrates all this power, which he gathers while he moves and tremendous grace without the martial quality in his caligraphy yoga. Although he can wield tremendous internal power externally as this video demonstrates Master Yang is gentle in nature and is a true yogi at heart.

Goodness me…how relaxed is his body? The energy behind each movement is almost visible….What a beautiful artform he has created or at least mastered. (I assume?) Gorgeous!

This video shows Master Yang doing some seemingly very simple movements that have a lot of internal energetics that can be lost on many people if they approach it will the wrong attitude of for example that it is all about stretching or tensing muscles – he says all you have to do is three things – unblock the blockages, make the energy move inside and then just enjoy the paradise that is the natural state within! – it really works!

This is amazing – and a little freaky. It is very nearly exactly what I’ve been doing out in my yard lately

The spinal subtleties are fascinating – I’ve found as I relax deeply there is more ‘internal’ movement – even with outer movements that are very small – and it feel incredible. It is like most types of exercise involve ‘turning up the volume’ – whereas this kind of approach is ‘listening’.
