Review:

This video is a continuation of the Hunyuan World 2005 video series. It begins with Master Le-May Lac, a visiting Hunyuantaiji master from France, performing the Hunyuan straight sword form. Next Master Chen gives instruction on how to find the opponent's center and how hand rotation and finger-pointing can change the direction of the incoming force. He also shows how there can be lots of outside movement, yet the structure never changes. Kua movement is covered. Master Chen discusses the importance of always being "powered" and able to turn as opposed to being like a wet noodle. An important point is how to take the slack out with a partner and how to always connect the hand to the foot. Carl Lindberg demonstrates the Chen Style Taijiquan Practical Method Broadsword. Todd Elihu perfoms the Chen Style Practical Method Straight Sword. Yaron Seidman does the Hunyuan Broadsword. Master Chen gives each of them corrections.

The home video quality is surpassed by the enlightening instruction given.
