Links to Video Clips published on the web

This page offers links to various postings of video clips of Tai Chi Chuan, either specifically Wu style or in some cases other styles which may prove of general interest. Some of the clips may be rather poor quality video, but represent some aspect of tai chi chuan being practised which may be informative, worthy of note or merely interesting.

 In the Archway Academy we follow the Wu style as defined by the main lineage of the family of which the present head is Wu Kwong Yu. However as with any art, there is diversity in style and approach even within a fairly tight discipline. It is human nature to adapt and alter what has been given. The clips on this page represent some of the the range and diversity of Wu's style Tai Chi Chuan, and offer a taster of what Wu's style Tai Chi Chuan encompasses.

If you know of any other clips, and would like to have them included on this page please e mail the webmaster and if the material is suitable it will be included.
