Getting a better understanding of Dai Sigung Issacs theory of the “conservation of momentum” will be of more value to us, from the perspective of practical application than 5 years Chi Sau.
All power production is the result of how well we move or control our weight.
The most natural and easiest method is to simply drop our weight down toward Mother Earth or lift it towards the Heavens, and of course we experience this in our Heaven and Earth stretch.
The most important thing to remember when we drop our weight is that it goes with gravity, straight down, not towards a chosen place or target.
In line with this when we lift our weight it also travels in a straight line, from the floor to our Pelvic Centre and not toward a chosen destination.
Dropping and lifting our weight is what I refer to as “Sinking and Rising”.
I prefer this term because it implies control and not happenstance.

Work hard at understanding the IDEA of “Sinking and Rising” but do not think that it is any more important than everything else we do.
