Feng Zhiqiang demonstrating stick (bang) and ruler (chih) exercises. The stick (bang) exercises are attributed to Chen Fake, one of FZQ's teachers. The ruler exercises are a very old Taoist practice FZQ learned from one of his other teachers, Hu Yaozhen. FZQ has compiled a set of exercises that include some of each, some of which is shown in this clip. More info here: http://www.taichiacademy.com.au/products.php?id=9 and elsewhere.

Very interesting...I have never seen this before. Is this a method from a particular Tai Chi style ie Chen or Yang? I hope you will reply. Thank you.
