i think wu style from shaolin is the best.....

i m also practicing this style,although some of the movements aren't just the same as his..just small details though..

I wouldn't say Wu style is is simple. The long forms are quite complex, but the movements are smaller than Chen or Yang.

Also, the Wu style weapons forms tend to be longer and more complicated than in the other styles.

Of course, everyone is selling simplified short forms these days, but even the better ones are for wushu competitions and demos, not martial training.

I can only partly agree.
The modern forms don´t have the traditional content anymore, that´s right, still a good master should be able to reintroduce the principles and neigong aspects into the forms.

From what some "martial artist" have been spreading about taiji .

Chen being very explosive and long.

Yang being a simplified form of Chen
with jumps and hard soft movements.

Wu being simplest than the Yang Style.

Wu Yuxiang being compact and sturdy.

Sun being quick and dexterous in movements.

I believe that each system relied on the masters body frame , dexterity , martial skill and ingenious understanding of their usage of Taiji.

Not sure why my comments floated up to the top since I was replying to individuals, but one was meant for Loyaute and the other for JasonK2210.

Yes! I've learned it the same way. We'd often do this form and it would take 30-40 minutes. People don't have the patience for slow, internal training these days, do they?

I learned this one once a couple of years ago. I'm also looking for some refresher videos, but haven't had much luck. I have a DVD of Grandmaster Leung Shum doing this, but it's tough to watch because it's not very well made.
