Master Wei Shuren Passes Away

Master Wei Shuren (1924 – 2013) passed away last night, June 11, 2013. He was the last disciple of Yang Tai Chi master Wang Yongquan (1903 – 1987). Wei Shuren taught the Yang Family style of Tai Chi Chuan that was passed to Wang Yongquan from 2nd generation Yang family master Yang Jianhou.

Below is a video showing how even at 80 years old, Wei Shuren was still adept at the subtle skills of Yang Family Tai Chi Chuan.

The knowledge and skill of Master Wei Shuren will truly be missed by the Tai Chi world as yet another door to the past great masters of Tai Chi Chuan has been closed.
