Taiji golden rooster stance

[johnwang]

Have you ever tried to use the Taiji "golden rooster stance" to lift your opponent up and off the ground?

- Left hand hold on your opponent's leading left leg.
- Right hand wrap around his waist.
- Put right knee under his hip (or left upper leg).
- Lean to your left and left him up and off the ground.

It's great balance training with a lot of fun. Your thought?

Sounds like a good exercise/practice, but doesn't have anything to do, really, with the Taiji move/posture "Rooster...". The primary similarity is that both are done while on one foot. Otherwise, the actions and intent are quite different.

That looks pretty cool.
