In 2003 I was on a business trip to our factory in Dingzhou Hebei Province China. Over dinner with the boss and friends from the Wushu circle I mentioned that I plan to go to Handan after Dingzhou to visit Yang Chen Fu’s second son Yang Zhenji. Being Yang style Taiji exponents they were excited and suggested we all went together by car. In 2003 Handan was a two- and half-hour drive from Dingzhou. On arrival we were saddened to learn that Master Yang had suffered a stroke we visited him in his bedroom to give our greetings. His wife Chen Pei made tea and chatted with us and gave some pointers.
I went to visit again with a group of students in 2004 and was given 2 DVDS by Chen Pei she asked me to use for promotions of Yang Zhenji legacy, sadly Yang Zhenji died in 2007.
