Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan

While Tai Chi Chuan is reputed to have started as early as the 7th century, documentary evidence goes back to the early 18th century. In the 19th century, Wu Yu-hsiang introduced his own innovations to the dominant Chen and Yang styles and created the Wu style.

Wu style Tai Chi Chuan is characterized by continuous motion, relaxation, large circular techniques and other movements that make the Wu style unique. The art can be divided into five sections: solo form, push hands, weapons, self-defense / free fighting and Tai Chi Chin-na techniques.
