Ask the Master is our new playlist on You Tube. Simple and direct questions answered by Master Yang Jun, a 6th generation Yang family descendent and linneage holder.
His greatest wish is to unite practitioners in China and the West into one big family where despite national borders and cross-cultural differences, everyone is linked together through their love of tai chi chuan.

TJQ - Taijiquan is 1st a martial system. Thats what is was designed for and thats how Yang Luchan learned it, secondary benefits of health come with practice. It has become more popular as a system for health because of generations that have no experience with combat. Having some theory helps but not really. You don't have to have a killer / trouble maker mind set in learning the real way. It is only through the understanding as a martial system that you begin to experience what TJQ is really about.

No, Don't let big powers get a hold of it, that's what is wrong with it now. The natural flavor is already less than what it should be. We don't want it to become tasteless.
