An introduction to Master Anthony Ho Nan Jie and his Wuji Qigong Taijiquan style. The video follows his journey in Taichi study and teaching from China to America, with Anthony performs the Wu style 34 form, showing interesting taichi applications, and amazing chi demonstrations.
@DeeJayDog ... Those people he is making look like rag dolls are definitely NOT "beginners" ... or even "reasonably experienced" as @piaten concedes.
In fact, the people he is pushing around are top martial artists (many "master" teachers).
The "300 lb big guy" :: Lee Scheele :: one of the top taiji players I've seen & met :: who has >20 years studying with Ben Lo & ~10-15 yrs w/ Tony.
Tony is just that good that he can make near anyone look like rag dolls who can't control their own body.

@DeeJayDogTV "fajin looks silly"??! Have you ever witnessed or experienced jin first hand, or are you just a keyboard jock? Have you ever tried pushing 300 pounds of flesh -and making it look easy? Look at Ho's body mechanics, not at the students'. The fact that he makes reasonably experienced, much bigger persons look clumsy is just another testament to his achievement, but most importantly, look at his root, and perfect body mechanics! Without jin, there is no real Tai chi chuan!

从小在上海是南杰叔教会我游泳的,也亲眼看到过他教训流氓,想必一百多个也不会打得过他,没能赶上学拳因南杰叔要移民了。

@DeeJayDogTV Where do you live? Maybe you could test your judgments out and back them up with REAL physical experience? I'm pretty sure that you'd be welcome to learn. Classes are in Irvine, CA on Sunday mornings. ;-)

i believe this guy has some taiji skills and knowledge of body mechanics, qi, joint locks, etc.. but the fajing stuff he does is always with the same student/s and is only preformed on beginners with no base or understanding of weight distribution - even if they're made out to be tournament champions in this video. it's for show and looks silly to real practitioners, though over-all i like most of his stuff.
