This DVD teaches the Chen Tai Chi Broadsword Form. For centuries, this form had 13 movements. In the 1930s, Chen Zhaopei added 9 more to create the form that's practiced in the Chen Village today.
The energy of the Chen Broadsword Form is said to be like a "hungry tiger coming down from the mountain." In other words, it's ready to pounce so don't be in its way or you'll be dinner.
In many ways, this form is unlike what you would imagine a tai chi form to look like -- it's short, fast, with a lot of chopping movements.
The DVD runs a little more than an hour and includes:
- Front view of the complete form at regular speed
- Front view of the complete form performed slowly
- Rear view of the complete form performed slowly
- An instruction section with multiple slow views of each individual movement--front, rear, and side views--followed by an in-depth explanation of the movement from Sifu Gullette
- A section on the fighting applications of the form. Sifu Gullette and a training partner look at the basic applications of each movement.
- A section on broadsword fighting techniques--stances, blocking, parrying and deflecting techniques, and cutting techniques with Sifu Gullette and a training partner. This information can help you truly understand how to use a broadsword the way the ancient footsoldiers of China used it.
This DVD is an excellent way to learn the form and can fill in many gaps that DVDs by the masters don't explain.
The cost is $25.00. There is a money-back guarantee if you're not satisfied for any reason.
