The form needs to be connected into a flow to be meaningful.

[BobMartin1222]

Absolutely correct. However, the forms are called "42 form", "24 form", "8 form", etc., because each form consists of a number of conceptually distinct (and countable) movements. The purpose of this video is to help beginners distinguish the movements.

Luv this lady so much~

I used to learn 42 forms also from her when I was doing my undergraduate degree in China=)

She is awesome.

[BobMartin1222]

Do you know here name and where she is from? It would be nice to give her credit on this video.

Gao Jiamin is also the performer in Li Deyin's instructional DVD "42 Forms Tai Chi Quan" (ISBN: 7883068040).

The 42 Form was created in 1989 by grandmaster Li De Yin (aka "Li Deyin") for the Chinese Sports Committee and was one of her instructors. I believe she is also a demonstrator of correct form in a 2003 International Wushu Federation (IWUF) rules video.
