Learn the original form of Tai Chi which comes from the Chen family in China. This DVD includes eight complete Tai Chi practice sets with teaching commentary. The Tai Chi forms and exercises on this DVD come from Chen Quanzhong, 19th generation Grandmaster from the Chen Tai Chi (Taijiquan) family. Shawn Cartwright, 20th generation indoor student of Grandmaster Chen, presents the original forms and exercises with some rarely seen Tai Chi drills. Grandmaster Chen preserves the sequence and essence of the original routine, while shortening it to 36 movements by removing the repetitions.
