Tai Chi Touchstones: Yang Family Secret Transmissions

Three generations of Yang family masters lifted the art of Tâ€™ai-chi châ€™uan from a closed courtyard in the Honan Province to the status of a national treasure and made of it, like Indiaâ€™s yoga, a gift to the world. Yang Lu-châ€™an in the nineteenth century, fllowed by his sons and their sons, have given Tâ€™ai-chi châ€™uan the theoretical and practical standard which still defines and shapes the art for a majority of practitioners today. This book draws together the written and photographic record of their teachings, a legacy spanning more than fifty years of published material. The contents include oral instruction, mnemonic verses and training songs, commentaries to the Tâ€™ai-chi Classics, essays, autobiography, and family legends, much of which have not been previously translated. 159 pages
