What Are You Waiting For? Have A More Active, Fuller Life Now!
Did you know that Tai Chi is the most popular form of exercise on the planet? And do you know why? It is because the millions upon millions of people who practice it worldwide are living a more active life than those who don't, and their health potential increases dramatically. Their friends and neighbors are seeing this and joining their classes in record numbers, especially among the elderly. This is no longer just a Chinese phenomena, it is spreading around the world.
Although Tai Chi started out as a martial art, most practitioners today teach it for its health benefits and a few instructors, like myself, have added the extra dimension of self healing that Chi Kung adds. Chi Kung exercises are part of the 4,000 year-old system of Traditional Chinese Medicine practiced in China and when Chi Kung compliments Tai Chi, they form a synergistic relationship resulting in an incredibly effective health maintenance system. Most forms of exercise dissipate your energy and make you tired and hyper at the same time! Our form of Chi Kung/Tai Chi accumulates energy and leaves you refreshed and relaxed when you finish. The graceful, slow speed of our styles, coupled with an emphasis on deep breathing and mental focus, creates balance, flexibility and calmness, which relieves stress and allows for the integration of your mind and body. Chi Kung and Tai Chi are now recognized by the U.S. National Institute of Health's Office of Alternative Medicine as an important method of Alternative Health Care. Over 75 percent of traditional medical schools in the USA now have training in natural, complimentary medicine and some medical schools have set up departments to research these styles. Because Tai Chi styles come from a martial background, they have a lot of kicks and punches that are simply not useful for most elderly people. Our Chi Kung/Tai Chi styles have left out the martial moves and only incorporate the moves with the most health potential. They also include knowledge of the electrical system used in acupuncture. Chi Kung translates as "Mastery of the electrical flow inside the body." This electrical flow aids in cellular communication, appropriate immune responses and physical coordination. Many of our modern illnesses are a result of a breakdown in this bio-electrical flow within the body. Awareness of that flow brings dimensions of self healing that other forms of exercise simply do not have. Recent medical studies (Emery University) confirm what Chi Kung/Tai Chi practitioners have known for centuries - that just 20 minutes a day of Chi Kung/Tai Chi can dramatically improve your coordination and balance, which for the elderly, can significantly cut the risk of falls. Chi Kung/Tai Chi can also improve your leg and lower body strength, increase flexibility, ease arthritis pain, and aid in the recovery of injuries. For those of you with high blood pressure, a recent presentation at the American Heart Association found that just 12 weeks of Tai Chi resulted in a small but significant drop in blood pressure in seniors. (For other specific Tai Chi and health related issues, subscribe to my monthly newsletters above.) How do we know about the effectiveness of our Beginner/Senior DVDs? With over 600,000 videos and DVDs sold, we hear from many students each week who tell us how their daily 20 minute practice has helped to improve their health and well being. (see reviews at left) My Beginner/Senior DVD has only 10 movements to learn, and each movement is well explained for easier learning. (See the TV screen above) This DVD features a women who is 93 years old! If she can do them, anyone can do them. Our goal was to take the mystery and difficulty out of learning Tai Chi and to make it easy for everyone to do. With the rapid increase in popularity of Tai Chi here in the states, there has come a wave of Tai Chi DVDs and this can make it difficult for people unfamiliar with the subject to sort out which style of Tai Chi might offer the most health benefits and be something they can actually learn on their own. So what should you look for when buying a Tai Chi DVD? The “Frequently Asked Questions” button will cover the basics you need to know. We believe so strongly in our Chi Kung/Tai Chi DVD programs that we offer an unconditional 365 day money-back guarantee. That way, you can try out our DVDs for a full year, and if they don't give you more energy and help you feel better, you can return the DVDs with no risk or obligation. We also want to make your shopping experience as pleasant as possible. If you have any questions about our DVDs, you can give us a call at our toll free number 800-497-4244 and we'll be happy to answer all your questions. When you are ready to order, we offer both safe and secure online ordering.
