DVD #25216 Taijiquan Joint Locking

A DVD on the Chin Na hidden in the Taijiquan form. Much of the information is relatively simple but the important part is teacher Li ZhuJun’s comments to his students almost as if her were informally instructing them. He corrects a movement here and angle there and the whole thing comes off like eavesdropping on a private lesson. Also many of the movements, even if you are familiar with them, have those nice details and insights so important to really making Chin Na function. Perhaps this is the origin or at least a component of Li En Jiu’s strong skills in grappling.
