Li TaiJiQuan and Chen TaiJi

Li Style TaiJiQuan is a beautiful and rare form TaiJiQuan. It was created by the famous riverboat bodyguard LiRuiDong (1851-1917). Soft and flowing in appearance, Li Style hides a deep and continuous power called “An FaLi.” An FaLi is a force that is fostered by proper body alignment and the systematic engagement of particular small muscle groups.

Li Style is based off of early Yang TaiJiQuan and is unique among the many modern forms of TaiJi as it is heavily influenced by BaGuaZhang, XingYiQuan and LoHan.

Flying Tortoise Academy instructor Joey Haber studies Li TaiJiQuan under 4th Generation Beijing Master ZhangXueAn.

Joey studies Chen TaiJi with his good friend and mentor, Derryl Willis.
