Synopsis
Fu Zhongwen's classic guide offers the best documentation available of the Yang style of taijiquan. The superbly detailed form instructions and historic line art drawings are based on Fu s many years as a disciple of Yang Chengfu, taijiquan s legendary founder. Also included are concise descriptions of fixed-step, moving-step, and da lu push hands practices. Additional commentary by translator Louis Swaim provides key insight into the text s philosophical language and imagery, further elucidating the art s cultural and historical foundations.
