Tai Chi & Qi Gong Basics (DVD)

Tai Chi is an ancient Chinese martial arts that enhances agility and power. Qi Gong is a Chinese health system that's been practised for centuries to improve mental and physical awareness. Taught by Matthew Cohen, a martial-arts master with 30 years' experience, these two programmes cultivate strength and tranquility in the mind and body. The Tai Chi programme contains three segments. First, you'll learn the essential poses of Tai Chi. Next, you'll move through the postures to create harmony and grace while increasing flexibility and endurance. Finally, you'll put it all together to build overall muscle tone and promote vigour and vitality. The Qi Gong programme conditions the body and expands the senses through slow, natural, repetitive movements. You'll stimulate your immune system and gain a sense of balance and inner calm with this healing practise.
