Movie Reviews of A.M. and P.M. T'ai Chi With David-Dorian Ross and CJ McPhee
Movie Review: Enjoyed one practice, but not the other
Summary: 3 Stars
I have never taken a class in t'ai chi and do not claim to have any grand understanding of it. I stumbled across the practice by accident when a small bit of it was included in an exercise video I was using and, because I liked the relaxed feeling I encountered, I'm beginning to explore it a little further through more videos. With regard to AM and PM Tai Chi, I disagree with the reviewers who said that CJ McPhee was grating, loud, robotic or scary in the PM Chi. I found her voice soothing and enjoyed her beautiful descriptions of the movements. I found PM Chi relaxing and will continue to use it. I can't say that I felt the same way about AM Chi. Perhaps it is just a case of personal preference, but I did not enjoy David Dorian Ross' teaching style and can't imagine that I will revisit that portion of the DVD.Movie Review: It's fine
Summary: 4 Stars
I have focused on the PM version of this DVD, and it's just fine. We feel great and so relaxed and ready for a good night's rest after this. I found the instructor relatively unobtrusive, which is what I would want. I have recommended this to others based on my positive experience. Movie Review: Average
Summary: 2 Stars
The first reviewer nailed the problem with the DVD. The two instructors are like night and day. CJ is awful. I found her style grating and robotic. My children(3 and 5) really enjoyed doing the Tai Chi with David's instruction, but burst into tears when they heard CJ. They kept pleading with me to, "Turn the mean lady off". I will have to return this disk :(
Movie Review: A bit disappointed
Summary: 3 Stars
David performs the A.M. routine. It is great. He is a great speaker. He moves and flows well.
CJ McPhee performs the P.M. routine. Her speaking was loud and robotic. No rhythm. Distracting. Lighting was poor due to p.m. shooting time.
David should have done all the routines.
