Great Master Wang Pei
Sheng, head of Northern Wu Style Taiji Quan group, passed away on the
morning of September 3rd, 2004 at age 85 of heart related illnesses
arising from complications from an earlier stroke. The funeral was held on
September 7th at 11am in Beijing. Several hundreds or so family, friends,
and students attended. Amongst them were older generation masters like Li
Bing Ci and Feng Zhi Qiang, representatives from various martial art
groups and associations in Beijing, and given the short timeframe, some
people from outside of Beijing. The auditorium at Ba Bao Shan National
Cemetary was not large enough to accommodate everyone at once. Most of the
younger students (second generation and later) had to wait outside
initially, and come in the pay their respect in groups. The whole
proceeding took about two hours. Born in 1919, Master Wang Pei Sheng was
the youngest amongst the masters of the post Qing Dynasty, pre-PRC
generation. His earliest training, at age 12, started with Ma Gui, where
he inherited the Yin Style's 64 Palms and Shi Ba Jie Broadsword form. One
year later he was introduced to Yang Yu Ting, his teacher in Wu Style Tai
Ji Quan. He quickly captured the attention of then zhang men ren Wang Mao
Zhai, and for years received daily personal training from Wang Mao Zhai.
His reputation rose quickly because of his fighting ability. He began
assisting Yang Yu Ting in daily Taiji Quan classes at only 15. When he was
18, he started to teach his own classes and became the youngest of all
teachers in Beijing at the time. He would go on to succeeded Yang Yu Ting
as the head of the Northern Wu Style Taiji Quan group. His own time was
that of a bridge between the old and the new. Amongst the other older
generation masters he had personal training or contact with were Wu Jian
Quan, Bu Xue Kuan, Han Mu Xia, Li Shu Wen, etc. Master Wang was a
voracious student in a wide range of subjects both east and west,
traditional and new; assimilating a knowledge from diverse fields of
philosophy, science, medicine, etc. His knowledge was at once wide and
deep, both subtle and refined. Synthesizing, adopting, and creating new
methods and approaches, he dedicated his life to passing on the
traditional art to the younger generations, who grew up in a radically
different world from which he was born. Master Zhang Yun, head of the
American branch of Master Wang's Ying Cheng Gong Fa Association, had been
in contact with Master Wang's family in the last several days. A wreath
representing condolences from all of his students here were sent. We mourn
not just his passing, but the loss of many cultural treasures he and his
generation had inherited but we did not have time or the ability to
preserve. Today the core teachings survive, and we strive to preserve them
and continue his work to the best of our abilities, as it is every younger
generation's duty to those that came before them and nourished them with
these gifts.
Remembering
Great Master Wang Peisheng

Shuai Jiao or Chinese
Wrestling is one of the most important part of traditional Chinese martial
arts. Many Chinese martial art systems incorporate Shuai Jiao as part of
its system, as throwing has always been considered a vital component of
one’s overall martial art skill. The nature of the contest, involving two
opponents of any weight and size in extremely close proximity, being able
to apply full body power to unbalance and put the other down to the
ground, is thought of as extremely beneficial for understanding martial
art.
International Baiyuan Tongbei Quan Assiciation
(
http://www.tongbei.homestead.com) will be hosting this seminar. Shifu
Zhang Yun will cover background knowledge, basic training methods and
skills, including gongfu training, grabs relating to various parts of the
uniform, solo and partner practice, and major categories of skills like
face-to-face, back-to-the-opponent type skills, large and small tripping
skills, etc.
