Dan talks through the whole five element sequence, movement by movement, focusing on the transitions between forms, the small gaps where flow can break and thoughts creep in. He describes the quality of each element in turn: earth's mountain-like presence, wood's rejuvenation, fire's heart and Shen, metal's boundaries, water's stillness. The class then practises Wu Chi, the five element breaths, and the full form through lion, tree, crane, tiger and lake.
