Sun Style Taijiquan (Tai Chi Chuan) is one of the five major schools of Taijiquan that are most widely practised around the world today. It was founded by legendary master Sun Lu Tang in the early twentieth century. Grandmaster Sun's love for the martial arts never ended. He was a renowned master of Xingyiquan (Hsing Yi Chuan) and Baguazhang (Pa Kua Chang) when he began his studies of Taijiquan at the age of 53. He immersed himself in the study and, after devoting considerable time to it, developed an internal art that combined characteristics from Xingyiquan, Baguazhang and Taijiquan and reflected the essence of the martial arts. He considered Sun Style Taijiquan to be his greatest achievement.
Grandmaster Sun was considered by his peers to be one of the pre-eminent martial arts masters of his time. His Taijiquan was originally called Opening Closing Active Step Taijiquan (Kai He Huo Bu Taijiquan). Sun's daughter, Sun Jian Yun (who actively taught in Hong Kong up until her passing in 2003), observed that her father's Taijiquan employs the stepping method of Baguazhang, the leg and waist methods of Xingyiquan and the body softness of Taijiquan.
