Yang Style 24 Form

In 1956 the Chinese Government Sports Committee actioned the creation of 

a short version of the

Yang Style Long Form. 

​

Four Tai Chi masters : Chu Guiting, Cai Longyun,

Fu Zhongwen, and Zhang Yu

collaborated to develop the form. 

​

The development of the 24 form made Tai Chi accessible to everyone  and provides a standardised Tai Chi form that can be learnt and practised relatively quickly.

​

Also known as the Simplified or Beijing Form,

the 24 form is now recognised as the

most popular form

practised in the world today.
