trained many disciples and students in China, and has led workshops and advised Wu-style organizations in North America as well. This lineage practices a 108-posture empty-hand form, as well as simplified and competition forms, sword and staff forms, push hands, and other aspects of the art. More about forms and partner work is in the Characteristics section. Hao family branch In the past this branch often used the name "Wu Style Taijiquan" (), with some attempts to clarify by calling it "Hao Frame" () or "Hao School" (), resulting in longer locutions like "Wu Style Hao Family Taijiquan". But over time the trend has been to call it "Wu (Hao) Taijiquan" () or even simply "Hao Family Taijiquan" (). The branch was founded by Hao Weizhen's son Hao Yueru (, 1877-1935) and grandson Hao Shaoru (, 1907-1983), who brought the art from Yongnian to the Nanjing region and Shanghai in 1930, at a time when many martial artists followed the Chinese government and economy to those areas. They also made changes to their art consistent with developments happening in many t'ai chi styles and other martial arts at the time, to bring the benefits of t'ai chi to a wider range of people. Building on the form created by his father Hao Weizhen, Hao Yueru developed a 96-posture small frame form and his son Hao Shaoru developed a shortened 49 posture version of the same form, both designed to be accessible to people who practice t'ai chi primarily for health, while still offering a martial core with lessons on internal power and other advanced aspects of the art to intermediate and advanced students. This lineage is known for their focus on the internal aspects of "Yi" (, "Intention") and "Qi" (, "Energy") in martial applications. Hao Shaoru paused his public t'ai chi teaching in the 1950s, but was invited by the government to lead a new class in Shanghai in 1960, and in 1963 published the seminal book Wu Style Taijiquan () which focused on the 96-movement form. Liu Jishun (, Simplified , 1930-), also known as Jackson Liu, became the second student in that 1960 class. Also a master of tui na and other aspects of traditional Chinese medicine, Liu continued training with Hao Shaoru until Hao's death in 1983 (though they practiced separately for a few years during the Cultural Revolution), and in 1981 Liu was selected by
