old yang, new yang and yang chen fu

1.
high stance
low stance
2.
waist position
100/0 (waist above one leg)
70/30 (waist more towards one than other leg)
50/50 (waist in between)
30/70 (waist more towards other than one leg)
0/100 (waist above other leg)
3.
old yang: body(torso) bent forward
new yang: body straight up
4.
thus:
70/30 position in old yand style: weight fully on one leg (because of bent forward)
70/30 position in new yang style: 70% of weight on forward led (because all weight above waist)
5.
of course if new yang 70/30 position is done in very high stance, then weight is also full on one leg

yang chen fu offers formidable example of waist work
worth checking
NOTE: he is good for ching kung, training the lower dan tien.
Remember that his top son once ran away and his top non-son student tried to commit suicide.
Signs of weird chi kung. Are warned. The warning that kumar emphasizes of using sound is here proper.
(He did use them extensively as remains of chen style in his form)
