Yang Style Postures of Wang Yongquan

Photographs of Wang Yongquan (1903 – 1987) performing the postures from the Yang style of Tai Chi Chuan are featured in this video. Wang Yongquan started learning Tai Chi from the age of seven. He was fortunate to be taught along with his father by Yang Jianhou at the Yang Family house. During this time Wang Yongquan also received instruction from Yang Shaohou. At the age of 14 years old, Wang Yangquan became a student of Yang Cheng Fu.

Wang Yongquan went on to be a great teacher in his own right, starting to teach at various places starting in 1926. Wang Yongquan taught many students, with his last disciple being the well known Wei Shuren.
