Wang Peisheng

Late master Wang Peisheng (1919-2004) was one of the most influential and accomplished experts of traditional Chinese martial arts in 20th century. He practiced martial arts since early childhood and was lucky to learn and be accepted as disciple by many famous masters, including Ma Gui (Yin style Baguazhang), Han Muxia (Xingyiquan), Liang Junbo (Tongbeiquan), Wang Shuwen and Wu Xiufeng (Bajiquan). However Mr Wang was most famous for his Wu Style Taijiquan. Because of his rare talent in MA Mr Wang, already as a disciple
of Yang Yuting, was introduced to Wang Maozhai (Yang Yuting's teacher) and learnt from him for 8 years. Mr Wang Peisheng's skill made him famous already in late 1930s and since then he held many position in martial arts association and societies. His fighting skills were proved again when he defeated Karate experts from Japan in early 1980s. This historical set - filmed in 1994 - is demonstrated and explained by late master Wang Peisheng.
