Do a Amazon search for "Tai Chi Sword" and come back with Taijiquan boxing?
HORRIBLE SEARCH ENGINE!!!!!!
Great Product March 24, 2009 Demitri Pevzner (depends on time of year) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This seems to be a combination of Wu, Yang, and Chen (I could be wrong,) done at a relatively fast pace. This will definitely give you a good stretch, and work your muscles/joints.
The form itself is demonstrated by Yu Xuande and a student. I noticed at times the student's form (foot placement/ hand posture) is somewhat different from that of the instructor. However, the instructor then does the form slowly, repeating the motion in great detail, and explaining the application. This is relatively easy to follow and pick up in a short amount of time.
The English translation comes in the form of subtitles, which can at times be difficult to understand due to lack of grammar/mistranslation. Nevertheless, this is a great DVD, well worth the cost, as long as you are willing to overlook these small issues.
