  • Hi Renaissance: My impression is YC Wong didn't learn from Professor Kuo. I've seen a longer Guan Ping that looks more Northern, but I'd stick with YC Wong if I were you. He doesn't remember life without gung fu and he's well into his seventies now. thanks. dreilly

  • Tai Chi can be practiced in various ways, depending on what type of energy you're trying to develop. Demonstrations may be quite different from training. Also, Guan-Ping Tai Chi is generally known for being a bit livelier, faster than Yang style. But some Yang styles have a short, fast, combat form. Y.C. Wong studied directly with Master Kuo in San Francisco.

  • Very nice.

    I do prefer though to see each movement mature in that split second that allows completion of the specific movement. It doesn't make it static at all but is the antithesis of the "fade" wherein you move through and then just as you are about to finish the movement it blurs into the beginning of the next.

    I don't believe this is the way Kuo did the movements, it's done here much more like standard Yang style in that aspect. I did see some brief nice explosive Hsing I in there.

  • @cheerry777 Sifu Wong is not in bad shape. He is healthy, strong and fast as ever. I am constantly amazed at how vital he is even in his 70's.

  • I heard he's in very bad shape now. Is true? Did he learn from Kuo Lien Ying? Did he modified the moves?

  • I agree, he is indeed one of the great master. I believe this performance was at Marysville, Calif. at the annual Bok Kai Festival held every March.

  • I had the honor of watching Y.C. Wong play this form about 3 feet in front of me at his studio in SF last year. Wow. One of the last true Masters.
