Four chapters of video that starts with a brief introduction to the Chen Style Taijiquan Practical Method. Master Chen covered a lot of ground on this one on one session, as he is intent on giving as much correction and knowledge from which the student can work on until they meet again next time.

I will never forget my first hour learning directly from Master Chen. The most productive hour I’ve ever spent learning taiji. The only thing better than the first hour…… was the second!!!
Great video. A lot of gems. “Power and direction get to be separated” make me think about mechanical movement of wood screw. Power is at the screw thread turning around it but direction is straight.
“Wood screw” analogy is appropriate.
Master Chen has produced a real gem here. He demystifies the true meaning of Taiji and dispels some commonly held misunderstandings about it. He demonstrates how these concepts are physically manifest on the body to produce Taiji power. This video is a must see for both beginners and experienced practitioners.
It clearly is a must see video in my opinion for anyone in internal martial arts.
Now that we have a certified instructor in the Chicago area perhaps the next step is a workshop with Master Chen.
