Looks Wu-ish to me, but I am not expert.

no expert- that's obvious.

He's doing Yang Small Circle Tai Ji Form.

It's Wu style, from the leaning forward postures. Nice video - thanks for posting!

It's not the full 108 form Wu I think - but it might be competition form with which I'm not familiar. The opening 'raise hands' is very 'WU' but I'm not seeing the Wu style 'white crane' which is in the competition form

But I wouldn't class myself as an expert on the forms and styles.

It says he's demonstrating the Wu (Jianquan) style.


   By Bob #2 on Friday, April 28, 2006 - 07:23 pm: Edit Post

that's what I thought. I said Yang just to weed out the no-it-alls.

30 years in Wu Jianquan style and never seen it look like that. Modern synthetic?

Just realised what it is - Northern Wu. See Wang Peisheng's form.

In the title of Video, this is Wu tai chi form.

I think it is short form.

Has anyone ever heard of Tai-Zu or Ba-Ji and if so could you please steer me in the direction for finding out more info. Thank You.

Northern Wu (older version) of Peisheng/Maozhi.
Note the upright movement vs the learning forward of present Shanghai Wu.
