Were you looking for the flashiness of Chen Xiao Wang? Do you have any first hand knowledge of Chen Fa Ke's style where you can base Chen Yu's performance on?
This depends on WHAT form you are referring to. If it is so-called LaoJia it is generally just considered quite simplified in comparison. If it is what those folks call "xin jia" claiming it came from Chen Zhaokui, it is usually not acknowledged as CZK's form, and considered rather adulterated and off the track of what that practice should be.
Most of the low stance you see in public performance is targeted towards aesthetic concern. Although dramatic in appearance, it actually lacks the structural elements that make it practical and functional. The authentic functional low style is extremely strenuous and it is very sensible to avoid presenting this in performance; dripping sweat soaked clothing, grunting and suffering, for what? Most people cannot even see the difference. Add to that, the most practical approach for combative function is NOT low. Low stance is either for development (strength and connection) or the final position of throws. Most of the fighting method must be very mobile, therefore not so low.
One of the greatest Master of authentic taiji Quan. Thanks for shearing 😊
Love watching Master Chen, Yu. Thanks for sharing. Be wellness. Yes love.
松活弹抖惊炸脆，气定神闲冠当代。叹为观止！
this seems to be a shortened version of Xin Jia Yi Lu, full form would be 83 moves. 74 moves is for Lao Jia Yi Lu.
"This would be it."?I don't get it.He is the 陳發科's grandson!

I have a question for you Marin. Could you tell us if Chen Yu said anything about what he thinks about the form taught in Chenjiagou ?

It always throws me off when I see High Stance Chen Style. It's my own "issue". Don't know why.
