Hi. My name's Bob Linde and I'm here to show you the next move in the twenty four Young style tai chi set. I've actually been practicing tai chi for about thirteen years now. So we just finished with that last move. Its a little violent but the strike tiger's ears. And now we're going to go and turn and kick with the other foot.So we'll start here. We're in a good tai chi solid stance. Our fists are just about head height and we're going to pivot, scoop down, our weight shifts to our right leg and we do a nice low kick again. So, let me show you that one more time. We started from strike tiger's ears from our good tai chi stance and we're going to pivot, open our hands, our weight shifts to the right leg, scoop down, our hands are away from our chest so that we have good balance, and we kick out, nice low kick with good control. This move actually ends then with the start of single whip which we saw before with the cloud hand. So from this move we'll go ahead and we'll get ready to look at the next move and the next clip. So, find a good tai chi instructor in your area and remember have a good time playing tai chi.
