The only Tai Chi I recognise is the yin yang symbol on the wall...

Come on now... He is a certified Red Sash Senior Teacher in Tai Chi and Chi Kung. Although he has the speak and knowledge of applications, you're right, his body does not seem to know tai chi. It seems his body is taking it's knowledge from the other arts he has "mastered" and filled it into the tai chi forms and applications.

Taken from his website http://www.streetkungfu.com

His training includes over ten styles of Silat and Kung Fu and Systema, as well as intensive knowledge of Tai Chi and Chi Kung.

Professional Certifications

* Self Defense Master of the Year 2007
USA Martial Arts Hall of Fame
* Sigung (Senior Teacher – Red Sash)
Old Hand Shao lin and Internal Kung Fu
Advanced training received from China’s “old Masters” Living Treasures in Mainland China 1993 & 1994
* Master Practitioner of KUN TAO SILAT de Thouars
* Master Practitioner of Pentjak Silat
* Sigung (Senior Teacher – Red Sash) Tai Chi and Chi Kung
* Si-Tai-Gung Street Kung Fu (Founder and Head of System)
* Certified Instructor of Russian Martial Art Systema
by Mikhail Ryabko and Vladimir Vasiliev as of may 2003

I knew him as a silat guy. Now he's jumped on the Taiji bandwagon.
