Very well done. I have watched several other fan performers. This is the best one so far.

The Chen family did not include a fan form in their training curriculum (this may be because of the ban they had on training women for many years due to an unfortunate incident many years ago). As a result, this form is not "approved" by the family. However, the form is based upon Chen style movements and is very difficult to do well as the fan is much more difficult to control than a sword or jo. As a result, if you have good judges, you will score high in competitions if you can do it well.

@funfront If this was made up, then why are we learning the exact same thing in our Taiji class? My coach has won medals for this so how in the world was this made up?

Hola!... I had the opportunity to ask the Grand Master Chen Xiaowang on tai chi fan and in me that: 'in Chen taiji There is no any set of fan...'

I was training with Leming Yue one of Chen Zheng Lei's Students on the 14th of Febuary 2009 at Telford and he taught us a Fan form based on the Chen 11 one of his own simplifications of the Chen 18 form taught by chen zheng lei. I don't suppose that the chen family have a fixed fan form but they don't not use fans. He explained that it helped to teach fa-jin as when the fan opens it must be due to the projection of chi/energy/momentum. Hope that helps some how.

your a disgrace....the fan style is not made up....its been around since every other fighting style....you all just never give it respect. Search taiji fan in the search bar, it brings up a bunch..

Listen. Like other kingfu, there are different forms of taiji which are modified or even created by people. Of course they don't make it up from nothing but based on tradition.

Don't be serious about the form. I suppose the performer made it up herself.
