This IS pretty long!! Don't run before you can walk. Don't move before you learn how to stand. Read Cheng Man Cheng's book. THERE he presents the shortened form but it is mostly repetition anyways. learn to do the moves slower and more relaxed. Don't just try to add more and more moves. If one captures the essence of the moves, you'll only need a few to really transform. But without the inner relaxation and attention to flow, even a thousand moves won't make you better.

Beyond imagination of difficulty.

What is the name of the music in this video? It's really nice. I've been watching this and using it to help fine tune my own attempts to learn the 37.

Wish the video quality was higher. So much knowledge lost over the years from a lack of good video cameras.

Master Yu was a great man and his skill was of the highest level.

Its great to see these old archive videos. I studied Tai Chi Chuan with Master Cheng Hsiang Yu on Long Island, NY. He was a disciple of Cheng Man Ching back in the 50's. We still do the form almost identical to this video. Master Yu said he never did the form the same twice. He pasted away a few years ago, sad to see him go.

FABULOUS!!! I practice a kung fu and tai chi chuan style called Fei Hok Phai and the Sifu Chiu Ping Lok teached this tai chi chuan sequence for many years as the main sequence of his style. He studied tai chi chuan in New York in the 1960's. He added one or two different movements, but the sequence is the same. I am very happy to see the sequence performed by Chen Manching himself. Thank you very much DPG, to add this video to the youtube. :-)
