The 24 Forms and the 48 Forms.

BETTER HEALTH IN 20 MINUTES A DAY!

Learn two of the most popular forms of Tai Chi Chuan, the ancient Chinese martial art which is often described as `moving meditation'. The `Simplified' 24-posture form is taught and demonstrated by Master Liang, Shou-Yu, with martial fighting applications. The form is shown from several angles, with breathing instructions. The Standard 48-posture form is also demonstrated.

This expanded DVD edition contains much more instruction than the VHS editions. DVD-only Detail Sections for both forms instruct each movement, and offer `guidelines' for refining your training. Chapter markers for each technique and extensive DVD navigation make it simple to find any posture on the DVD with just a couple clicks, so you can continue your study where you left off.

In only 20 minutes a day, you can gain the health benefits of Tai Chi Chuan: increased strength and energy, better balance, and improved bodily awareness. Excellent for beginning students, those who want a low-impact alternative to jogging or aerobics, and those with limited time for exercise.

This DVD complements the best-selling book Tai Chi Chuan—24 Postures with Applications & 48 Posture Routine, by Liang, Shou-Yu & Wen-Ching Wu (sold separately).

Special Features: Over 100 Chapter sections • Narration: English or French • Multi-Language Menus and Subtitles: English, Spanish, Polish, Portuguese, & French • History of Tai Chi Chuan sections • Slideshows of Master Liang demonstrating correct posture alignment • Interactive YMAA Product Catalog with previews of all YMAA video titles.

Comment: It is very hard for me to relax and tai chi helps me keep my mind clear of other things because i am concentrating on the movements. I would recommend this dvd for anyone who wants to learn tai chi. I have had many begining tai chi videos but this one takes the cake!

Summary: Tai Chi for beginners
Comment: This Tai Chi dvd is very helpful. As a person who has attended a 6 week class in tai chi, it was very easy to follow and told me everything I need to continue in this martial art. You can either do the routine following the master, or have him show you exactly how the various postures should look, going slowly over them. Each section of the dvd is seperate and easy to find. You can delve as deeply or shallowly as desired into tai chi.

Summary: Great Tai Chi DVD!
Comment: I recently received this DVD (Simplified Tai Chi Chuan) and absolutely think it's great! There is SO much information and it's all categorized to make it even easier to decied where you want to start viewing. Each and every posture is broken down and explained as the instructor goes through the moves. So if you feel the need to practice one of the postures more than another, all you have to do is pick it on the menu. No need to go searching for the moves. You also get to see the moves from several angles. Yes, there are moments when you may get a little confused about which leg or arm that they want you to move, but you ARE attempting to learn a martial art from a DVD so.... I recommend this DVD even for beginners, (which is what I am, by the way). I also have the book (Tai Chi Chuan 24 &48 postures with martial applicaitaons) and it is VERY helpful. It covers the history of tai chi, breathing exercises, helpful diagrams, and photos of all the 48 postures. The DVD and book compliment each other. Thanks.
