Taiji Songquan· Promote the Dao and cultivate righteousness
It began in 1988
March 12, 2025 marks the 30th anniversary of the establishment of Beijing Chenjiagou Tai Chi Training Center. On this memorable day, we look back on the past, look forward to the future, and embark on a new journey together.
On March 12, 1995, the Beijing Chenjiagou Tai Chi Training Center was established in the Prince Gong’s Mansion, founded by Yang Songquan, the 11th generation inheritor of Chen-style Tai Chi. Master Yang Songquan has been learning the ancestral Taiji from his grandfather Chen Zhaopi since childhood and has fully grasped the true essence. Since his youth, he had been teaching martial arts under Duke Zhao PI. Later, he traveled both the north and the south and widely imparted the skills.

The center has been established for over three decades and has persisted in teaching boxing to the public in Beihai Park, regardless of the weather, benefiting countless people. Based on this, Taiji is also taught to the personnel of enterprises, institutions, universities, research institutions in Beijing and embassies and consulates abroad, spreading culture, enhancing health and promoting friendly exchanges.
