Hi, im new here. I practice since a little time (2 years) Choy Lee fut Kung fu.
Im having difficulty keeping the energy on the lower abdomen, my instructors say that im too much up and tense on the upper back, rigid on the shoulders. I keep trying to correct this problem without success, is like i dont know how to move arms without tensing up, making circular movements without continuity/fluidity (everything i do when i move an arm, is getting this tension in the way), or the guard sustained with the arms, keeping tension in the shoulders, or doing kicks with the upper body tensed, or in lower position with the energy too much in the chest, so i apply tension when im comfronted by force (not using the strenght just of the lower body centered)
They always tell me to relax, but i dont how to relax this. What would you recommend to try to correct this problem?
