YAN CHENG DE – CHU GUITING – CLASSICAL MARTIAL ARTS

YANG STYLE TAI CHI SABER

Chu’s eldest pupil Yang Cheng De
Single DVD MP4, English subtitled, 98 minutes

This version of the Yang saber was developed by Chu GuiTing himself so there are some new concepts added and “more brilliant” swordplay. My Yan shows details such as gripping the sword and the slightly different shape of the Yang saber versus the typical Kung Fu saber. He also tells the story of why the Yang style saber is designed differently. This version originates from the same form as the standard form but with moves added and, more importantly, to our mind a stronger sense of the weapon so the missing “saber wraps” don’t seem inappropriate at all. Worth a look if you care about this weapon and form. The penultimate section on the second DVD shows applications for saber fighting saber and one last view of the form.
