It's the same as "unify the movement"

Raf, practice slowly, focus and bringing everything together, and it will.

Well, my advice is to also do it EXTREMELY slow in the beginning, later only slow, and to NOT concentrate on anything. It's the thing of holding a nail with one hand, hammering it into a board with the other, and learning the exact intangibles just through doing it, all the time, without "using the force". Just -hammer- -the nail- into -the board-. -Now-. Don't 'actively' "lead" the Qi with the Yi, as you don't know anything about what "your Qi" is, nor do you know what Yi is. If you have to look at your hand to get Qi there, when some fist is flying at your face, it will have the tendency to be a little late to get there before the fist lands. The real meaning of "Yi leading the Qi" is that the permanent awareness of the body (the thing that tells you a bee stung your behind immediately while it does) leads that empowering (probably from adrenalin and some other things), not looking. Yi is a very complicated yet natural thing. It's what makes you think "RUN!!!!" doing it immediately, when otherwise the bus hits you. It's the very same thing that leads a NBA player to "feel" or "know" where the basket is, hitting it even while being fouled and jumped from three guys at once. After they threw 10,000 balls at the basket, without defenders, and then with, they get the feeling from doing it. Same way, Qi and all the other things are alive, they have some part of the mind lead it all the time, not will. It's learning to go along with that, not controlling. Even with no formal training, when I come to your place and just swing at your head, you will do something. Lean away, duck, block, yell, complain. Answers vary, but the thing that answers is always there. It's about giving that thing the time to develop some answer that contains all the stuff body has. The slowness, and the production of the basic components of that "Qi skills" over standing, stomping, relaxing, and slow moving exercises, automatically leads to the body getting aware of it. Once it is, it will also automatically learn to integrate it to the normal and special moving (running away, hitting the bear, ...) , same way as it far ago learned to make use of that legs when learning to walk, without anyone telling. Whatever made you crawl and walk as a baby is the best thing to learn using jing (what the real name of "qi skills" is). The active exercises only serve the purpose of enlargening the mind control, which is not necessarily important, or a good thing. I got to the point with that "non-thinking" that my body/yi/mind/whatever reacts to danger or incoming opponents far earlier than I'm getting aware of them. My body just jumps away from alone, or punches from alone, or does weird stuff to nullify the person or situation. I'm only the passenger. That can freak you out, but it works a lot better than all that fixed-on-controlling thing.

On the other hand, I have slight doubts if you honestly want to move to Wudang "for the rest of your life". What do you want there ? No swordfighter will wait there for you to learn from him, or challenge you. There's a lot of cold and swarms of mosquitos in the mountains, no jobs. Might be a nice thing if you like to live a simple life in the nature, provided you get a job.

He said unificate qi AND movement.
StormMontain, You are tuned in !
Nik, I agree wholheartedly with your advice and your question in ref to moving to Wudang. Your advice was very very good. No one Could have explained it any better than you did.
Raf, You see, it takes years and years of practice, learning and then coming to true understanding. It makes no difference where you live or learn. The change will come internally first. Do not be in a hurry. Use the time to exercise your mind, body and spirit.
Jeff(fuzzy30)
