Beyond the rudimentary physical requirements of tai chi, the student must learn how to actively use the tai chi principles that are outlined in the tai chi classics.
This is accomplished through training a wide range of partnered drills and sensitivity exercises.
Once again, it is assumed that the student is proficient with the qigong/neigong exercises and has some growing sense of form.
Partnered drills are a challenge, and the student cannot be thinking about connection whilst trying to remain sticky, soft, sensitive and yielding.
