This song is often been played for performing Tai Chi Kung Fu Fan. The song has strong momentum that everybody in our class practicing Tai Chi Kung Fu Fan likes it very much.
Then, I find out the song title is “中国功夫" by "屠洪刚” ("China Kung Fu" by Tu Hong Gang)

Videos on Tai Chi Kung Fu Fan
I found this 2 videos on YouTube that demonstrated the Tai Chi Kung Fu Fan beautifully. To perform Tai Chi Kung Fu Fan, there are six sections, a total of 52 steps to learn. So far these are the 2 videos that I've found on YouTube that the Tai Chi Kung Fu Fan is well demonstrated, neat and proper. Sometimes I would refer to videos to help me recall the routine or sequence of the steps I've learnt during lesson. I notice there is only a very slight difference at the 4th step.

Learnt Tai Chi Kung Fu Fan Section 1
Since last month when I sprained my ankle, followed by another 2 weeks of Chinese New Year celebration, I've not been practicing my Tai Chi for 4 weeks!
I attended my Tai Chi class this evening. While I was performing my Tai Chi 24 simplified form (original + reverse style) and the 42 form Tai Chi just now, my legs & thighs were shivering. Now I can feel my muscles pain.
For a person like me who doesn't like to do much strenuous exercise, I'd still preferred Tai Chi, despite my thigh muscles are painful now, the impact is not as irritating as after those strenuous exercises like jogging, running, squash or tennis. After practicing Tai Chi, I feel relax and happier.
By just looking at people are doing Tai Chi, it might look so and easy. Some would describe the strokes are like holding a watermelon, cutting the watermelons to 2 halves, one half for you, the other half for him.
However, there are principles to follow when performing Tai Chi that could make a difference to our body.
Our instructor has completed teaching us the first section of the Tai Chi Kung Fu Fan this evening. She shared with us some of the strokes for Kung Fu Fan comes from 八卦掌 ba gua zhang. For example, 翻身轮压(灵猫捕蝶) comes from 八卦掌的狮子滚球。Oh, that was so interesting. By the way, there are six sections for Tai Chi Kung Fu Fan. Will update the steps for Tai Chi Kung Fu Fan in my later blogs.
