New Chen Village Dvd Takes You Inside Birthplace Of Tai Chi
Tai Chi is surrounded by mystery and mysticism, but it is a martial art that was created in the Chen Village in China. A new documentary by producer Jon Braeley takes us on a fascinating journey to meet the key members of the Chen family who keep the family art alive.
Shot in high definition, the documentary includes interviews with westerners who have traveled to Chen Village to study, and it shows a disciple ceremony in which Grandmaster Chen Xiaowang accepts new disciples.
Chen Village (Chenjiagou) is located in Henan Province. It's a very poor village with 3,000 residents. It is said that 2,500 Chen Villagers practice tai chi, and all but 15% are named Chen. You see parts of the village here that you haven't seen before.
Most of us would think of beautiful Asian buildings if we thought of the birthplace of Tai Chi, but we would be wrong. Chenjiagou is a poor, third-world community. It just happens that they are the best in the world at their art.
The documentary features Chen Xiaowang, his brother and head of the Chenjiagou tai chi school Chen Xiaoxing, Chen Ziqiang (son of Xiaoxing) and Chen Bing (a nephew of Xiaowang and Xiaoxing). It's exciting to watch, considering I have met and trained with three of the four, and Chen Xiaoxing stayed in our home for a week back in 2006. It's also fascinating to see the Chen Xiaoxing's school since I received a certificate in 2005 as a recognized instructor connected to the Chen family school.
I didn't know until seeing this DVD that Chen Bing now runs his own school, and he has built it with foreign students in mind. Some students have been reluctant in the past to travel to Chen Village because living conditions are not very good compared with our standards. Chen Bing decided to build a school that is more welcoming to Westerners.
I was disappointed but not surprised to hear Chen Bing say that foreign students are usually trained differently than the Chinese -- not as tough because they can't take it, and most of them, he says, are interested in the health aspects more than the martial aspects. Are you listening, people? They don't consider us to be very serious because we focus on the wrong things. Despite what you've heard and read, real tai chi is a martial art -- it's about fighting and not about meditation. It also requires a lot of sweat to achieve skill. If you're not sweating, you're not practicing right.
Chen Xiaoxing's son, Chen Ziqiang was interviewed and said that even among students from the Chen Village, only one student in a hundred manages to hang with it long enough to become really good at tai chi. I've been teaching now for a dozen years and that is something that becomes clear very quickly when you teach -- the fact that for every 100 people that come through the door, only one has the determination and passion to achieve their goals.
The interviews with the western students are very interesting. They find themselves in a very simple environment when they stay at the Chen Village -- a much slower and far less technological lifestyle. A few of the comments go a little over-the-top, as you can imagine from people who are dedicated enough to spend a year or two living there. One devoted student breaks down and cries when discussing Chen Xiaowang. I understand the devotion, but I tend to look at these masters as people who are the best at what they do -- like Tiger Woods, Muhammad Ali and Michael Jordan, all worthy of tremendous respect. I don't look at them as gods. My wife watched the documentary with me and strongly objected to the disciple ceremony where the disciples were kneeling and bowing in worship before Grandmaster Chen. I didn't react as strongly because I understand why they're doing it, but it was fascinating to see a ceremony like this after hearing about it. When you become a disciple it's a very serious relationship, supposedly like being admitted to the family, and yet there is a master/student relationship that is very strict, and let's face it, the culture is not what we are accustomed to. Americans by nature don't like to kneel and prostrate themselves before anyone, but in the context of the situation and the culture, it's something that you do.
Chen Bing is shown at his school demonstrating a form, and as usual, he's breathtakingly impressive. There is a little video of Chen Xiaoxing practicing with some students, and Chen Xiaowang does a short demo, too.
One of my goals is to travel to Chen Village and give it my best effort to train like the Chinese. It's nice that Jon Braeley has produced such an inspirational documentary.I highly recommend this DVD to anyone with an interest in tai chi.

The simple answer is that you haven't solved all 132 puzzles required to unlock the house
This has been a fairly common question over the last 18 or so months and in every case players who were certain that they had solved every puzzle, found (with closer inspection) that they actually hadn't
