Grandmaster Tse’s Qìgōng Dào 氣功道 474

After these forms, it is good to move on to softer movements like Dàyàn Qìgōng (Wild Goose Qìgōng) 1st and 2nd 64, and even shorter forms like Slapping Gong

Which Form to Practise?

Part 2

When we start, I suggest we warm up first; however, I personally like to stretch before I do my Level 1 Warm-Up. I find the Level 1 Warm-Up too comfortable, probably because I am so used to it. I need something a little more difficult to stimulate my Qì, but if I am feeling a little lazy, I will start with the Level 1 Warm-Up.

Once I have done Level 1, I will do Level 2 and then Level 3. After this, I feel my body is open from the inside out. Now, the best forms to do are the more dynamic forms, so Chūn Yuán is the obvious choice: Xíng Shǒu 行手, Dà Bēi Quán 大悲拳, Yàn Qīng Quán 燕菁拳, and Èr Láng Quán 二郎拳.

After these forms, it is good to move on to softer movements like Dàyàn Qìgōng (Wild Goose Qìgōng) 1st and 2nd 64, and even shorter forms like Slapping Gong 拍打健身功, Sky-Eye Gong 天目功, Twinning Hands Bagua 崑崙纏手八卦, Cotton Palm 綿掌, etc. Which form you choose does not matter—just pick one and start, then choose another. Once you start, you will feel very happy that you are practising.
