Spear (Staff) Set
Click here to see
pictures of the spear set as shown in Yang Chen Fu's 1931 book. It
features Tung Ying Chieh as one of the players. I believe the other player
is T'ien Chao Ling, shown as Yang's number one disciple in his book.
Click here to see pictures of the spear set as shown in a book by Dong Jun Ling's student. It features Tung Ying Chieh and his disciple Lin Bo Yan. Also included is a picture of Tung Ying Chieh performing a spear (staff) posture at a demonstration in Thailand.
Tung Ying Chieh was reportedly the first person to popularize Taijiquan in Thailand. Other teachers had tried, but were kicked out by the Thai boxers. Tung Ying Chieh met their challenges and defeated them convincingly. As a result they flocked to learn Taijiquan from him. It is said that he had some 10,000 students in Thailand.
