4 méthodes de Dongyue Taiji

Master Men Ganhong demonstrates the four methods of Dongyue Taiji. Dongyue Taiji (東岳太極) is a very special one. The brainchild of Professors Men Huifeng (门惠丰) and Gan Guixiang (阚桂香), Dongyue Taiji was declared by China to be the “Taiji for the new millennium” when unveiled on January 1, 2000. Professors Men and Gan are unique in the martial world. Not only are they husband and wife professors at the Beijing Sports University, they have both been awarded ninth duan (level 段), the highest rank that China bestows. They are the only married couple to achieve this recognition. Dongyue Taiji combines elements of the five major schools of Taiji: Yang, Chen, Wu, Wu, Sun (陈、杨、吴、武、孙). Despite being a new innovation, Dongyue Taiji is firmly rooted in traditional principles with a heavy emphasis on basics.
