Snake Style Tai Chi-Videos, by Master Bob Boyd

A Tale of Two Tai Chi’s

Master Boyd has produced a short video regarding the difference between the Yang Family’s "Tiger Style" and the "Snake Style". In this video he talks about becoming a disciple of Grandmaster Ip Tai Tak; about "emptying the cup"; and about re-learning tai chi chuan under the Snake Style system. The documentary runs approximately 15 minutes and also contains clips of grandmaster Ip. The snake Style system consists of the internal teachings of the Yang family as transmitted from Yang Sau Chung to Ip tai Tak. Master Yang and Master Ip were practice partners for over 28 years. You can order the video on DVD or as a direct download at:

This video Library is available via download or as a DVD, starting with episode 1 and continuing monthly as a serial. Subscribers must pay for all episodes up to the current month and then they can subscribe on a monthly basis. The fee for each episode is Euro 10 or US $15.
