Chen Taijiquan, Yang Taijiquan side by side

Yang comparisons
From top left, clockwise: Fu Zhongwen, Tung Ying Chieh, Zheng Manqing (Chen Man Ching), and Yang Zhenduo (son of Yang Chengfu). Something to take into account with these comparisons, Tung Ying Chieh, Zheng Manqing, and Yang Zhenduo are relivetly young in these videos. Where as Fu Zhongwen is quite old.

 
what is often considered as Fu Zhongwen’s way of Yang Chengfu’s Taiji teaching is actually of the Yang Banhou’s version, and being so it logically hold some same technical specifics that are in the Wu-Taiji form since Yang Banhou was indeed the main teacher of Wu Quanyou the first generation of Wu family TJQ.

Actually, the Yang Banhou form is considered being the official Yang Taiji form in Guangfu/Yongnian the hometown of the yang family as well as Fu Zhongwen who already had become proficient in the hometowns Taiji form before moving to Shanghai catching up with Yang Chengfu..
