You're a very good instructor - you include such crucial factors in practice that can get overlooked and missed out when learning qigong, you explain and demonstrate them very clearly. I am really enjoying watching your videos!

Marco, that was explained very well. Thank you for this video. I'm glad you've broken it down rather than using traditional vague explanations.

This is exactly how I was taught to do this, but it took a while to be able to let go and release sufficiently in order to relax the muscles, which is an ongoing practice. You explain it very well and the use of the balls and string works very well. Another prop to use, when trying to convey the hip joint connection, is to use a small ball and a funnel. This works very well to show how the ball of the femur bone locates, but can move freely, within the hip socket (the funnel). A teacher I know here in Spain, Manolo Mazón, first showed me this last year and it has been a very helpful visual aid for teaching and practising. In recent years, I found myself being asked to teach a little bit, so this analogy of sitting on a ledge or bench is what I use to convey this principle. I usually find that students benefit from loosening exercises to help them begin to relax. Just saying to relax doesn't help much when people don't really know how to relax. My current teacher, Master Ch'ng Ley Seng, when I first started studying with him in 2020, placed a lot of emphasis on what he calls "correct sitting". It is a fundamental principle that permeates Tai Chi practice and training. He is always reminding me of this, and many other things too.

Another important feeling appears in the feet. The weight suddenly drops when we sink the kua. The feet feel a deep sensation. And the kua is relaxed.

This is great! Many people who practice in the West think of qi as energy akin to "the force" from Star Wars so it is nice to see videos like this that try to explain the fundamentals of practice and actually adhere to the principles of traditional practice. Keep up the good work! Nice lighthouse pic btw, great metaphor for sinking qi.

Without the kua is open, don’t think you will sit in the kua. Also the relaxation of the hips is not you are able to move them left and right, it’s measured by if you turn your torso without extra force but by shifting your weight.

So ultimately your are relaxing and let your weight drop/sink your weight trough the segments of the kinetic chain into the ground right? I always focused on "folding the kua" which caused a lot of tension. When I simply dropped relaxed starting from my ankle and relaxing all other parts of the chain it was effortles and the pelvis sank naturally and was ultimately carried by my feet. Can you please share your view on that?
