Practice
Practice in this framework is divided into six distinct, though sometimes overlapping, stages. Each stage is defined by a clear goal, specific training focus, and observable milestones.
Practice Phases
- Phase One: Mimicking
- Phase Two: Training on Yi
- Phase Three: Training of Jin
- Phase Four: Integration
- Phase Five: Synchronization
- Phase Six: Push-Hands
How to Read These Pages
Each practice page:
- Highlights goal, training focus, and milestone
- Focuses on functional meaning rather than tradition
- Emphasizes observation and testability
- Avoids stylistic or lineage-based interpretation
