The teacher in the video is sending mixed messages that will leave students confused: he states one should be totally relaxed all the time and not use physical twisting motions, but when demonstrating, he points out that every movement should have a physical twisting action. (The astute student realizes that one cannot twist a body part while staying completely relaxed.)
If the body is "completely relaxed" it will fall to a heap on the floor.

It would seem you do not understand the concept of fan song or focus on something that
most would understand what the meaning is but you'er trying to make some point?
might want to look into the meaning of what central equilibrium is.

I quoted, verbatim, the guy in the video. The average beginner has no idea what fan song is or of the type of "relaxation" that is required of Taijiquan.
Not just the average beginner many who've practiced for a long time still haven't gotten it
yet
My point was that those attending his seminar, and many of those watching the video, will go away with the impression that Taijiquan is all about being relaxed, such as feet up with a gin and tonic, within the average person's experience of what the word "relaxed" means. In my opinion, It's perpetuating a common myth or misunderstanding.
