Movie Review: 5 Stars for Bonus "A.M. Chi for Beginners" Segment
Summary: 5 Stars
Yes, it's true the tai chi routine is a bit confusing initially as far as which direction to go, to follow the instructor. But with practice this can be overcome... Nonetheless, I've given this DVD 5 stars because I LOVE(!) the bonus "A.M. Chi for Beginners" workout which follows. I originally had it on video but so many people would borrow it somehow it never got returned to me. Well it's no longer available on video unfortunately. So I was thrilled beyond belief to find out I could get it on this tai chi DVD. I personally don't do the tai chi segment as my apartment is too small for all the leg work tai chi usually involves, but for qigong lovers the "A.M. Chi for Beginners" routine is well worth the price alone! (and requires little floor space). It's a classic and I'm surprised they don't have a separate DVD with that title for the throngs of us who loved it on video. And only 20 minutes long, so I can easily fit it into my schedule even on the busiest days. There are three parts to the 20 minute A.M. Chi routine, which was filmed at sunrise on a beautiful Maui beach: (1) "Gathering Chi from the 6 Directions and Mixing it in the Cauldron of the Body", (2) the classic "8 Pieces of Brocade" qigong series, and (3) "Opening the Heart". The movements are so easy to follow (no confusion here), and never fail to put me in that peaceful frame of mind to help get me through life's ups and downs. I look at this as my A.M. Chi DVD which just happens to have a bonus tai chi workout... In short, the tai chi segment might be disappointing for some, but the bonus track may just surpass your expectations.
