HISTORICAL CONTEXT
The spear is often referred to as the 'King of Weapons' in Chinese martial arts, and the 'Thirteen Spears' (Taiji Qiang) is the most vital weapon routine in the Taijiquan system. In the Wu Style tradition, the spear is used to develop high-level 'Internal Power' and 'Fa-Jin.' Grandmaster Wang Peisheng (1919-2004), a titan of the Northern Wu Style, presents this 2-VCD set as the definitive instructional for the Taiji Spear. Drawing from his deep lineage under Wang Maozhai, Wang provides a systematic approach to mastering this challenging weapon, ensuring that the 'Fluid Structure' and 'Combat Intent' are preserved for modern practitioners who seek the highest levels of internal mastery.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
This 2-VCD collection offers an exhaustive study of the Wu Style Thirteen Spears. Master Wang provides a step-by-step explanation of the routine, beginning with the 'Thirteen Spear Postures'—the fundamental methods that form the basis of all spear work. He meticulously breaks down each movement, discussing its specific martial application and the 'Intent' (Yi) required to execute it effectively. The instruction covers the 'Adhere and Follow' (Zhan Nian Lian Sui) principle as applied to the long spear, showing how to neutralize an opponent's weapon and counter with explosive precision. This is a masterclass in 'Body-Spear Integration,' where the weapon becomes a living extension of the spine.
BIOMECHANICAL PRINCIPLES
The biomechanics of the Taiji Spear are focused on the 'Spiral Kinetic Chain.' Master Wang teaches how to generate power from the feet and waist, channeling it through the long shaft of the spear to the tip. This requires a profound understanding of 'Unified Power' and the ability to maintain structural integrity over a long distance. The instruction emphasizes the use of the 'Dantian' as the source of all movement, ensuring that the spear is not moved by the arms alone. Biomechanically, the spear training serves to refine the practitioner's 'Internal Method' (Neigong), making their empty-hand Tai Chi even more potent, rooted, and capable of generating multi-directional force.
LINEAGE AND MASTERY
Wang Peisheng was a 7th Dan Wushu master whose expertise with the spear was legendary in the Beijing martial arts community. His ability to convey the subtle internal nuances of spear work makes this 2-VCD set a unique and invaluable resource. This is part of the only instructional series he ever recorded, providing an authoritative guide to one of the most important aspects of the Wu Style curriculum. For those seeking to master the 'King of Weapons' and deepen their understanding of 'Internal Alchemy' and 'Combat Logic,' this collection is an essential addition to their martial arts library, guided by a master of the highest order.

Grandmaster Wang Peisheng
Grandmaster Wang Peisheng (1919–2004), also known by his courtesy name Yuebin (履宾), was one of the most influential and revered Chinese martial arts masters of the 20th century. He was a third-generation lineage holder of Wu-style Tai Chi Chuan and served as the President of the Beijing Wu-style Tai Chi Chuan Research Association.Famous for his profound martial applications and internal mechanics (Neigong), Wang played a pivotal role in modernizing, preserving, and popularizing Wu-style Tai Chi globally.1. Lineage & Martial Heritage Wang Peisheng's lineage traces directly back to the founders of Wu-style Tai Chi Chuan, establishing him as a highly authentic authority of the system:Founder: Wu Quanyou (吴全佑)2nd Generation: Yang Yuting (杨禹廷) — One of the "Great Three" masters of Beijing.3rd Generation: Wang Peisheng (王培生)Wang began his training under Yang Yuting at a very young age. Due to his exceptional talent and dedication, he mastered the complete curriculum of the Wu style, including the traditional long form, weapons (sword, sabre, spear), and push hands (Tui Shou). Throughout his life, he also mastered other internal styles such as Baguazhang (Yin Cheng lineage) and Xingyiquan, which deeply enriched his understanding of combat mechanics and explosive power (Fa Li).2. Core Contributions to Wu-style Tai Chi The 37-Posture Simplified Wu-style Form In 1953, to make Tai Chi more accessible to the public for health and combat practice without losing its core essence, Wang Peisheng condensed the traditional long form into the Northern Wu-style 37-Posture Simplified Tai Chi Chuan.Characteristics: This form retains the signature traits of Wu style—compact frames, parallel footwork, forward leaning while maintaining a straight spine (Chuan Zhang / Piercing Palm mechanics), and high therapeutic value.Impact: It became the standard teaching curriculum across northern China and eventually spread worldwide.Scientific and Psychological Approach to Internal Power Unlike traditional masters who taught purely through esoteric terms, Wang Peisheng was famous for explaining internal mechanics using a systematic, mind-body approach.Mind-Intent (Yi): He emphasized that internal energy (Qi) follows the mind's focus on specific anatomical points or joints.Combat Applications: He was highly respected in the martial arts community for his peerless Tui Shou (Push Hands) skills, demonstrating that even in old age, a smaller practitioner could effortlessly neutralize and neutralize heavy, aggressive attacks using structural alignment and absolute relaxation (Song).3.
