I first saw him 45 years ago giving a demonstration at Fordham University in New York. It was spell binding. He seemed to be floating in the air and I knew I was in the presence of an absolute master. And, of course, I attended his school.
I met his son and daughter 20 years ago at a Sanshou tournament and hung out with them afterwards. They made such a big impression on me that I still remember them fondly now.
Why I have been with him all my adult life comes through in this video. This is how he teaches every day. Great that the TV station found him. More people need to know about the valuable resource he is in the city and the world.
Right, people should know that Tai Chi Chuan IS martial art. Chen should demonstrate flinging people away like his teacher Cheng Man Ching or getting hard strikes unhurt from people.
This was wonderful, don't invite a man who has been teaching for 60 years without being ready to give him at least 60 minutes of your time he was enjoying himself with y'all, time is nothing compared to that
Who would you recomend around Ulster cpunty NY. I have taken classes with one of your students David Pancaresian. He brought me to one of your classes. We talked about old old Kung Fu tapes. Did ypu ever get the episode you wete misding?
He is so Cool Cool ... ^_^ ... I was just at his Spring Intensive, the man hits like a truck; a quick and silent truck. I love how he puts the Ch'uan in Tai Chi Ch'uan
I dont' know about 7:44, but at 7:57, it was when GM Chen instantly punched him with perfect form after reaching into his pocket for the money that he was asked for...that caused her to crack up.
what a joke of a show , instead of actually learning what this guys has to say and actually get him to demonstrate it live so people can actually see whats possibly these clown just wasted all the time
