Chen Tai Chi Four Corners Form

Chen Tai Chi Four Corners

Beginner students in Chen style Tai Chi learn the first five movements of the Laojia Yi Lu form changing direction to face the four corners. The five elements form can be joined together with a transition movement that changes the orientation you face after movement 5 to create an everlasting form that can be repeated without stopping. Sometimes called facing the 'Four Directions', also known as the 'Four Corners'.
