But physics has taught us that even the act of mere observation changes the thing which we observe, a la, the cat in the box phenomenon.

P.S. BTW, I just noticed you have Concentration in signature. Thus, this discussion relates you directly . What if we all agree that "de-concentration" is important as well |

I have almost 7 years in Yang Tai Chi Chuan and some months in ILC depending on how you look at it.

A related question to this thread - do you still practice your previous martial art to some degree, or have you made a "clean break" in favor of I Liq Chuan? I ask because although I started with other arts, I find that I am becoming more and more focused on ILC training methods.
That being said, it's a difficult process to drop everything and start again from scratch after devoting so much time to and effort on previous training methods. Peter |

I dropped my previous Chen taiji training and only do ILC now. The process of breaking took over a year and a half. In the end, I'm glad I made a clean break. There are only so many hours in a day to practice, and my brain would probably become confused trying to integrate information from two systems at the same time. Plus, Sifu has a well thought out curriculum. Seeing a clear path of progression (as well as noticing significant personal improvements under Sifu's guidance) solidified my decision to switch to exclusively to ILC .
I do occasionally try doing bits and pieces of the previous forms I learned just for fun. After a few years of ILC training, I find that I analyze form movements in ILC terms, so my LaoJia YiLu feels completely different now. I keep thinking things like "no wonder this move never felt right before, I wasn't clear enough on my absorb-project, open-close, etc." |
