Interesting clip.

My first intro into the world of taiji Tung/Dong style as taught by "Sam" as he asked to be called
On the island of O‘ahu / Hawaii. seeking to deepen my CMA practice at the time many yrs back.

Peter and Sam,



Sam, was in many ways ahead of his time. Having come from a hard style back ground his hands were gnarled not with age but with the training he did as a much younger man toughing them on coconut trees growing on the island.
I can still hear him in his Hawaiian accented pidgin English,

“and now we use the good old American right hook ”
when going over how his taiji worked. :)

Peter a good friend

Was first introduced to Taijiquan in 1970 after returning from Air Force basic training. He quickly became dedicated to the study of Taijiquan. The initial five years of instruction took place under Master Sam Kekina and Master Tung HuLing at the Hsu Yun Buddhist Temple in Nuuanu valley not far from where he lived.

There he learned the 108 Long Form, Fast Form, Push Hands, Da Lu, Double edged sword and Broadsword of the Tung family style.

The two decades following his time at the Hsu Yun Buddhist Temple, Sifu Tam Hoy continued to polish the Yang 108 form, push hands, Da Lu, self-defense techniques, as well as weapons and use of internal energy, under the guidance of Master Sam Kekina.

Nice clip
Some apps are a little crude but overall thanks for putting it together
Mostly Tungs fast form
Don't put power into the form let it naturally arise from the form

Really liked the elbow (zhou jin) in the section with Dong Huling pushing with a student, don't often see that used so cleanly!

I like that section too!
I think that's at 3:23 -ish

I really like how Zeng Chen clearly shows you how the moves he practices works against Resistance (Non-Compliance)

@ 2:25
Zeng Chen responds to his opponents resistance and instantly taking advantage of it.

@ 4:58
Zeng Chen does it again.

@ 6:23
you can see it with his son Alex too. he responds with a sweep.
Oh, you withstood that sweep?
Okay, How about a double sweep :)
