VTG Tai Chi for Seniors VHS Mark Johnson Self Healing Through Movement Chi Gung
Review from the internet:
Mark starts with Qi Gong warm up exercises that I've seen on my favorite Qi Qong DVD "Discovering Chi" & also Dr. Yang Jwing Ming's "Eight Simple Qigong Exercises For Health - The 8 Pieces of Brocade." He only does a few of them of those DVDs, but he speaks at a clipped pace & does them quick which is good for those who get bored easily.
This portion including a min intro of the workout is 19 min including using a few acupressure moves as well. There is some neck & head tapping, thymus thumping, teeth clicking, tongue rolling, face massage, abdominal massage, joint shaking, leg swinging for lymph, arm swinging for the heart, "the elephant raises his trunk" for the pituitary, etc.
Next is him demonstrating the Tai Chi w/two women, one who is 92. He does it 1x with all of them facing the camera & then again with him along with his back to the camera. There is no instruction for this part for 8 min.
From my limited Tai Chi knowledge of only Short Yang style, I recognized some of the moves like single Whip, press & release, repulse monkey. The foot movements seem to be modified a little with extra step to normal stance or eliminated any kicks to make it easier w/less balance & leg strength needed.
He then uses the last 20 min to teach it each move slowly with all the arm movements, what not to do, etc. He doesn't put much emphasis on telling weight distribution like in a real class or in Terrance Dunn's. He also teaches the whole 4 min. routine with the breathing & instruction.
It ends with "holding the big jug" or "micro cosmic orbit" is a simple standing with visualization of energy traveling up the spine, over the head, and down the front of the body w/deep breathing.
Mark Johnson has great knowledge & gives great information but tells you quick with good, relaxed speaking like to a friend, not a monotone lecture.
When doing the Qi Gong part, even though he sails through it at a quick rate, I felt more relaxed & calm after.
