Have a great time at his seminar.

I myself am looking forward...

I havent seen the 13 wu spear form ,but my friend and former college professor Dr. Jon Shear teaches the 24 Wu taiji spear. It bears no resembleance to the 24 yang spear I am talking ...

Dong family solo spear is very similar to what the Fu Zhong Wen people were doing. That is single techniques basically put together in one form which they call "13 techniques". It is different from the 24 yang spear performed by Jiang Yueh keung's students. The two person techniques of sti...

This is some of the latest I have heard on the Yang family taiji spear it is very new information and I have found some links on the internet to confirm some of this information.

Fu Zhong Wen told me that Yang Chen Fu went on a trip and came back very sick and that his skin turn to a yellow. I told fu Zhong Wen I was curious because alot of people expect taiji people to live a long time. Fu zhong Wen was 94 at the time before his untimely passing. Now that I saw that someone...
