YouTube Videos of Cheng Man-Ching Forms, Applications and Push Hands

This is a video that surfaced from either the 1950's or 1960's of Cheng Man Ching in Taiwan. Around the middle of the video he does his form followed by a group of his student doing the form with him. They take a long walk together first.
