Not for beginners!

I would not advise bying this DVD if you are a beginner. The narrators English is quiet and difficult to follow. I have found that very clear and explicit instructons are needed at the beginning of Tai Chi and these are not to be found on this DVD. It may be more suited to those of an intermediate level who only require someone to follow rather than someone to explain all the movements to them. The camera work is ammature at best with much wobbling and shaking which is another uneeded distraction.

"Great Teacher....Pitty about the camera man"

Obviously I bought this DVD to learn Tai-Chi as I lead quite a stressful life and wanted to find something to do to chill out. The teacher is Great, fluid and able to control his body enough to allow the pupil to understand and obtain each movement. It is also a comprehensive DVD in that it has apart from the lessons a number of varied demonstrations from Tai Chi village, one with a Grand master. Just watching the DVD through helps you to gain a greater understanding of the various movements. The only parts of the DVD that I can pick apart are the equiptment used, the quality isnt great, for instance on a 28" Sony television the colouring of his hands bled thus commiting me to move closer to the television to try and see what they were up too. Secondly On a Couple of occasions the camera man messes up, and to my best knowledge was an amateur....however the DVD does what it was intended and is a great way to either practise at home or learn from scratch. At least its not some cheesy american teacher...this guy really moves.

True master at work

This dvd shows a true master, the way he moves is really really tai chi, nice, good explanation, its difficult to learn but that makes it only more interesting. Get going with chen style tai chi and start with this dvd !
