This is not taijiquan but close by nature

To me, it looks fairly close Smile

What I like about the video: it shows smart moves, not violence. They seem to be executed in a very smooth and relaxed way, yet powerful, much like what my understanding of Taiji is. The guy is showing the moves, not hurting the partner, and that shows respect too. At the highest level, all martial arts merge, I think.
I liked the hip "fa-jin", very similar to ZTC's 42 fajin form.

Thanks for sharing, Andrey

Yes Alain I see too ! Smart fighting indeed. It looks like some kind of monkey style to me.
