New Xu vid.

Post  Eryn on Fri Feb 20, 2009 8:11 pm

Just put up a new clip of Dr. Xu performing Tongbeiquan, Taijiquan, and some body conditioning/striking against a tree. There are many other teachers on the same vcd, I'll post some of them soon:

I wish you could see the top of the tree in this video to see how much those impacts move the branches.
This seems almost Bagua-like; constant movement and he always seems to get behind his "opponent".

Is that Wu style Taiji again?

I'm pretty sure that's Wu, but I don't recognize any of the patterns from the 48 in it; it might be part of one of the longer Wu forms, maybe 108 step or something.

That routine he performs around the tree looks like a Bagua/Chen hybrid. I noticed Chen when he lifted the foot and stomped, but the stepping pattern is Baqua-esque. He could just be freestyling it, but there might be more to it.
