First,
be advised that all of these VCD's are IN
CHINESE ONLY . In our opinion that
doesn't matter much because the instruction is clear and the quality
of photography very good. But we will not accept returns just because
people didn't read... IN
CHINESE ONLY.
Given that, these are really tremendous deals for the money. Each
of these special VCD's can be played on a computer for full enjoyment.
Made for PC's they are also Mac compatible by downloading Quicktime
(for free) and any similiar VCD player pro gram.Also playable on
most DVD players. For less than $10.00? Wow! |

CHI GATHERINGS
Demonstrators:

Many
top teachers demonstrating and teaching their art. Please make note:
some of these VCD's are demos, some are lecture/demos and some are
only lectures. Read carefully the description on each section .
NOTE: while some of these represent series our evaluation of individual
disks has led us to conclude that they are very uneven. These are
the ones we recommend.

Tai
Chi styles Ma Hong Lecture
A Double VCD, VCD pricing, Chinese Only
This
is a good one. The wonderful, energetic instructor Ma Hong here
lectures but also demonstrates his practical, strong and clear understanding
of Chen style Tai Chi. Ma Hong stands as a tower, unwilling to change
to more contemporary, prettier versions his T'ai Chi is now becoming
admittedly a version of the real Chen style. We were privileged
to see him in person demonstrate in California and the word that
kept coming to mind was integrity regarding his strong, clear presentation.

Lecture on Principles
About
1 Hour,
VCD pricing,
Chinese Only
Demonstrator/Teacher:
Zhang ZhiJun a Chen style inheritor.
This
is essentially a LECTURE VCD with Zhang ShihFu mostly sitting at
a table and talking about many aspects of Tai Chi done properly.
He particularly emphasizes the relationship between posture and
breathing and, by inference, internal organ work. He stands briefly
and shows a breakdown and exemplifies his words regarding the harmonizing
of the actions in Chen Tai Chi. In this case we recommend only for Mandarin (PuTongHua) speakers.
