Features: The purpose of writing "Yang Style Tai Chi" is to inherit the traditional routines, not focusing on combat techniques. Therefore, only detailed explanations are provided for the movements, while the combat applications are briefly mentioned. In terms of key points for each movement, the author based the original postures on "The Complete Book of Tai Chi Body and Application" and referred to his teacher's work "Tai Chi Usage Method" while writing. Additionally, the author has strived to include all the requirements his teacher taught him for each posture, without any additions or deletions, to share with fellow enthusiasts as a standard model. Regarding the illustrations, 76 of them are drawn based on the original photographs of the author's teacher, while the others are added according to the needs of practice methods and movement breakdowns.
