Yang Pan-hou (Yang Banhou, 楊班侯, 1837-1890) was an influential teacher of T'ai Chi Ch'uan in Ch'ing dynasty China. He was the senior son of Yang Lu-ch'an to survive to adulthood. Like his father, he was retained as a martial arts instructor by the Chinese Imperial family. He eventually became the formal teacher of Wu Ch'uan-yü (Wu Quanyou), a Manchu Banner cavalry officer of the Palace Battalion. Wu Ch'uan-yü's son, Wu Chien-ch'üan (Wu Jianquan), also a Banner officer, became known as the co-founder (along with his father) of the Wu style T'ai Chi Ch'uan. Yang Pan-hou's younger brother Yang Chien-hou was also a well known teacher of Yang style T'ai Chi Ch'uan.
