Discover the ancestral root of Chen Style Taijiquan — the Chen-style Changquan (Long Fist) 108 Forms — originally compiled by the legendary Chen Wangting and recovered from Shanxi province in 1975 by 11th-generation successor Chen Liqing. This rare routine bridges traditional Northern Long Fist and the internal mechanics of Taiji, preserving the expansive, fast, and powerful "Changquan characteristic" that predates the shortened modern Taiji forms. Master Chen Yongfu provides a meticulous demonstration of all 108 forms, covering high-impact strikes, sweeping kicks, intricate grappling, and joint locks (Qin Na). Biomechanical instruction emphasizes Fa-Jin (Explosive Power) through the kinetic chain, Hardness and Softness (Gang Rou Xiang Ji), Rooted Stability, and Internal Alchemy — moving Qi through the body to support the physical demands of Long Fist. Each movement contains specific tactical logic rooted in the Adhere and Follow (Zhan Nian Lian Sui) principles that gave birth to Taijiquan. An irreplaceable historical and martial resource.
