    Appaling
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2010*

I purchased this DVD based on its reviews in the hope that my wife will find it inspiring. I could not have made a worse choice. The "tai chi" in DVD is based on a form derived from Yang's long form, but it is wrong in most fundamental aspects: body posture, foot work, breathing, etc.The DVD has an introductory qigong section. These qigong exercises are too fast and superficial to be real qigong and too slow and without vigor to be good aerobic exercises. The instructor is significantly leaning her upper body when shifting the weight from a leg to another, which can cause back injury to people involved in this kind of "qigong". One characteristic of real qigong is that it is safe and beneficial to both strong and frail people and the "qigong" in this DVD does not posses this characteristic. One funny aspect is that the instructor states that movement in Tai chi is rooted in the legs. There is a lot of wobbling going on for a body rooted in stationary legs.The Tai Chi section is even worse than the qigong one. The instructor's concept of relaxed upper body is weird. For her relaxed spine means purposefully arched spine, dropped arms are hanging arms and so on.  She tries to assume a low stance, but her step stances are too short, which makes her incorrectly (and unsafely) lean when shifting the weight from a leg to the other.  This is also the reason why consistently and incorrectly the projections on her knees fall outside the area covered by her soles. Most of the time she seems to have the weight about equally distributed on both feet which is also wrong.In summary, the "Tai Chi" on this DVD is extremely poor. People can get a sample of it on youtube.  Unfortunately, I made the wrong assumption that because youtube does not return anything featuring Tricia Yu when searched using keywords "Tai Chi", there is no Tricia Yu footage on youtube. A more thorough search would have saved me $17.99 plus shipping and handling costs.

    A Complete Basic Form
  

*by D***Y on Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2007*

I first learned the basics of this form many years ago at Naropa Institute, but I was not successful in finding teachers in my area.  So I studied other Tai Chi Forms.This version has now allowed me to pick up the fundamentals of the Cheng Man Cheng form.  It is the best form for energy circulation.  This Fundamental Form is very short but it includes most of the major moves of the original form.  Tricia is a very good teacher.  She does not expect a student to actually learn the form from the video alone, but I had no trouble in re-learning the form that I had not practiced in many years.

    Beginner's Joy
  

*by H***S on Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2011*

As a newcomer to Tai Chi I found this video extremely helpful. Ticia Yu illustrates the movements both facing you, which some criticize but is important for being able to view the hand movements accurately, as well as with her back to you.  It is simple to review with the guided practice section at the end even if one has only a small portion of time.  The format of the DVD is sensible and easy to follow.  My only criticism is that Ms. Yu is extremely flexible and one must not attempt to imitate her rather too large foot movements as a beginner.  I would highly recommend this video.
