Taiji People—by Sam Masich (S01E01) Mario Napoli: The People's Champion

In this premiere episode of Taiji People, Sam Masich interviews International Push-hands Champion Mario Napoli who delves into his personal method of training, shares observations on the art and the taijiquan community, and recounts his experiences in the 2000 Chen-village tournament where he became the first and last non-Chinese athlete to win the event. Filmed in 2002 as part of Masich's 23,000-kilometre Taiji People odyssey, this episode highlights an important and sometimes polarizing figure in contemporary taijiquan.
