Chen style old frame first form (Laojia yilu). 
Two DVDs in case, total run time 3 hours 13 minutes.
Like flowing water, the only performance of anyone doing any taiji that might possibly better show what taiji is all about was his performance for the taiji conference VCD set.
Talks about the theories and explains basic techniques of the first form, performs the whole form beautifully, explains basic techniques, talks his way through the form move by move, shows applications, and shows how to lead a group through the form. When showing sections, he does them again, it is not a replay from the whole form performance. The English subtitles are quite good throughout the form. At the end he also demonstrates the little "18 essential moves" form.
