William C.C. Chen Teaches Tai Chi

[@starfire0007]

Had the opportunity to spar with him years ago. He recognized my technique, turns out I studied from his student's student. He then hit me harder!

[@TaiChiDragon....]

Master William C C Chen is a legend. Great humour and a great teacher.

[@Genethagenius]

I met his son and daughter 20 years ago at a Sanshou tournament and hung out with them afterwards. They made such a big impression on me that I still remember them fondly now.

[@drrobertdowney715]

Why I have been with him all my adult life comes through in this video. This is how he teaches every day. Great that the TV station found him. More people need to know about the valuable resource he is in the city and the world.

Speed of an 81 Yr old Tai chi Grandmaster.....just wow !

[@christianmontagx8461]

You don't need to be a grandmaster :) And now think what they do to all the old people in retirement homes. Bingo will not train your muscles!

[@taichifrank]

我的老師是最好的 ！ 速度與柔軟度是關鍵 ！ 我很幸運有他作為我的老師 ！

[@slidingdownthemountain]

I first saw him 45 years ago giving a demonstration at Fordham University in New York. It was spell binding. He seemed to be floating in the air and I knew I was in the presence of an absolute master. And, of course, I attended his school.

[@DunnsTaiChiKungFu]

Wonderful to see you teaching with such joy and delight and with your always impeccable form and principles, Laoshi!

[@LaraineSchollmann]

Thank you Master Chen. The Rochester Institute taught me well under your Yang 60 style Form. They are great teachers! ❤❤

[@stevemarshallveryfunny6907]

wonderful, so much fun, so funny and if you pay attention a great lesson

[@TekilArt]

Master Chen visited us in Guadalajara, Mexico for two weeks in 1992 !

[@thetruthchannel5987]

This was wonderful, don't invite a man who has been teaching for 60 years without being ready to give him at least 60 minutes of your time he was enjoying himself with y'all, time is nothing compared to that

[@joelskipper744]

That was so funny....I loved it

[@ttcostadc]

the lesser known "punch my stomach" request.. :)

[@vitalec2055]

I took tai chi it is true what he said I still do my forms n thinking bout going back

[@djangomango11]

Master Chen is the best...

[@taijiguy1]

I studied with a guy who was a long-time student of William's, and he had the exact same mannerisms when he taught.

[@MrBasshead83]

Nick by chance?

[@faysarr8205]

I don't believe what he is doing looks so crazy😊😮

[@janeeb859]

Who would you recomend around Ulster cpunty NY. I have taken classes with one of your students David Pancaresian. He brought me to one of your classes. We talked about old old Kung Fu tapes. Did ypu ever get the episode you wete misding?

[@DavidMKnibbe13]

Really fantastic. Entertaining and at the same time explaining the principles of tai chi in his own great way.

[@JL-bo4bh]

Right, people should know that Tai Chi Chuan IS martial art. Chen should demonstrate flinging people away like his teacher Cheng Man Ching or getting hard strikes unhurt from people.

[@christianmontagx8461]

"Without muscles"- "ah ok"....I don't think that he understood. Took me two years of Cheng Hsin training to understand the concept 😂

[@WinstonPrice]

He is so Cool Cool ... ^_^ ... I was just at his Spring Intensive, the man hits like a truck; a quick and silent truck. I love how he puts the Ch'uan in Tai Chi Ch'uan

[@Shawn-vp2dq]

that's awesome! now, may I ask why you put an apostrophe between ch and uan? ch'uan?

[@johnmohammed2582]

But man can hit that’s all I’m saying believe me this man can hit hard

[@mikimeadows]

what does he say at 7:44 that makes her crack up?

[@taijiguy1]

I'd like to know too. They both had a WTF look on their faces like they couldn't believe he said it, whatever it was.

[@DunnsTaiChiKungFu]

I dont' know about 7:44, but at 7:57, it was when GM Chen instantly punched him with perfect form after reaching into his pocket for the money that he was asked for...that caused her to crack up.

[@alexchen5811]

He said something along the lines of 'having alot to dish out'

[@EastoverEstate]

C.C. William Chen coming to Eastover< lenox, MA Oct 13 - Oct 18th, pls join us: www.eastover.com/workshop/wcccc.html

[@GilesHartop]

[@NilsKlug]

[@fionahicks4310]

[@madogblue]

7:30 Quick for an 80 year old man!

[@michaelspyrou1784]

[@NancyLebovitz]

Dammit, the break wasn't that important.

[@thomassegrue8783]

Tai Chi has far more to offer than this !!

[@stefanoneil6937]

[@Eryan724]

haha even the master had to make fun of it

[@CT2507]

Whohaa!... did i punch you? Smack!... did i punch you again?? You see? Jab, jab jab...did i punch you? See?... And the banana don't break. That's it.

[@johnmohammed2582]

[@klopaklope987]

Chen shifu know proper training chi

[@hunyuan8045]

[@johntatum1951]

Michelle looked awkward...no offense. Fake praise...so sad.

[@foryou-wy9kf]

[@Spartan20852]
