Being "double-weighted" is a bad thing in Tai Chi (Taiji) but if you ask 10 people what it means, you may get 10 different answers. Most will say "your weight is fifty-fifty on both feet." But that isn't right. In this video, instructor Ken Gullette demonstrates what he has learned in Chen style Taiji -- being double-weighted is to be in a position from which you cannot defend.
