I read on a forum somewhere that Yang Zhenji (the 2nd son of Yang Cheng-fu) had died. However I can't find confirmation anywhere. Can anyone throw any light on this?
Saw it posted on Empty Flower and the statement is that it is in the latest issue of Tai Chi magazine. I do not usually get it but I am going to pick it up if I can find it.
Many thanks for that information. Yang Zhen Ji was the true "gate holder" of the Yang Family tradition, however that now falls onto Yang Zhen Duo. The two brothers transmitted slightly different versions of their fathers form. In my opinion (and who am I to know!!!), Yang Zhen Ji's was the better/truer interpretation.
If you are interested, here is a biography of Yang Zhen Ji translated from the Chinese by Lois Swaim who translated some of the Yang family taijiquan books from Chinese to English. My own form comes directly from Yang Zhen Ji, but we are considered the "Black Sheep" of the family tradition!!
