37 Yang taiji by Ding Shui-de

[babybirdhome]

I'm very new to taiji and I just had the chance to see master Ding in person, the first time I've seen a taiji master in real life, and it was amazing to see him do the full 84 form (I think?) Yang style as well as hear his answers to our questions.

If I can move half as well as he does at age 81 when I'm that old, I'll be very pleased. Actually I'd be ecstatic if I could move that well now at 37! What an honor to have him visit and teach us!

An interesting flavour of yang taiji. A bit too flowery for my taste.

Even in Yang Taiji there are several variations .

I think its only natural . not every person is the same in physical body .. it doesnt mean that the taiji principals are forgotten or discarded .

I like this form as well , just as much as i like the form i have learned .

Respects ,

graceful version of a yang 37 posture form holding true to the long form sequences and flow

i think this is the family form from Yang Zhen Ji & Yang Pei Xiu Rong's lineage. I've done that variation a few times and I think this might be it. My Shi Fu is from the lineage of both Yang Shou Zhong and Yang Zhen Ji/Yang Pei Xiu Rong and teaches both. Nothin' like the family stuff for my money!

Ding Shui-de was primarily a student of Li Ya-xuan, YCF's disciple, although he did study under a few other people.

...there are no words! the lightness in the movements _ very appropriate the music!
