yt  Brush Knee, a fundamental Pushing-Hands drill

Excerpt from my next book, From the Most Soft and Yielding, Tai-Chi Pushing-Hands for Health and Self-Defense, due out in 2022.

"Up to now, the drills have trained to push or attack with two hands and defend or neutralize with two hands or arms. The Brush Knee drill is different in that you will be constantly defending with one arm and attacking with the other. This drill teaches many skills such as how to defend your centerline, sticking, following, coiling, changing, and at a later stage, multiple attacks and defenses.

A word of caution: do not strike your partner’s heart. A palm to the heart can cause serious injury or death."
