Historically, this system is attributed to Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty, who refined his martial skills at the Shaolin Temple before establishing his empire. This lineage represents a rare fusion of imperial tactical wisdom and the temple's profound internal mechanics. This instructional program is presented by Master Shi Deyang, a 31st-generation lineage successor of Shaolin Kung Fu. Master Shi is a premier authority on the 'Original Boxing Tree of Traditional Shaolin,' having dedicated his life to the preservation of the temple's esoteric martial arts. Taizu Chang Quan is celebrated for its 'Straight Line' power and its ability to be practiced in a space as small as an 'ox's lying place.' This DVD offers a rare opportunity to study the authentic roots of this imperial lineage under the guidance of a true master, ensuring the technical purity of the art is maintained. The choreography is a fluid structure that emphasizes the principle of 'Boxing on a Straight Line,' where movements advance and retreat along a single axis to maximize kinetic momentum. Master Shi Deyang provides a meticulous breakdown of the forms, highlighting the deceptive nature of the techniques which often catch opponents off guard. Each Form & Applications within the routine is designed for close-quarters engagement, making it highly effective for personal defense in confined environments.
