This video shows the 85 steps yang style taiji form ( ba shi wu shi yang shi taijiquan ). This form is considered the most complex yang style form and was created by Yang Cheng Fu himself. The 85 form is a traditional form and because of it's length it is not used for competitions. There is also a 108 yang style taiji form, but there are just a few more repeated movements in it and it's technically very similar to the 85 form. Before you learn the 85 form, you should learn the 24 form, the 28 form etc.
