Yang Ban Hou 64 Movement Tai Chi Chuan

Yang Ban Hou Tai Chi Chuan Form, also known as the Guangping form clearly illustrates the historical and lineage link between the Chen Family and the Yang Family Tai Chi Chuan.

The form incorporates a solid differentiation between yin and yang, as well as a number of well-defined silk drawing movements. This form can be traced from Yang Ban Hou who was the second son of Yang Lu Shan who had learnt Tai Chi Chuan from the Chen Family. Yang Ban Hou transmitted his knowledge to only a few disciples one of these was Wang Chiao-Yu who was based in Beijing, he in turn taught Kuo Lien-Ying who was responsible for introducing it to the West.

Made up of Sixty Four Movements which relate to the sixty four hexagrams of the I Ching, this form should be of interest to both Yang and Chen Family Style Practitioners, as well as to the complete beginner, who is interested in accessing a form of movement which gives us a tool with which to take responsibility for our health and well being.
