i know im asking randomly but does any of you know a way to get back into an Instagram account..? I somehow forgot my password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!
I feel also proud of my Dad, who accidentally" intruded" into our formal video making scene. He is always a hard working man! He never knows he also becomes world famous!
For someone not an active participant in Tai Chi, thank you for an introduction. Most people do not realize how out of harmony their body is. I once met a Tai Chi master and I asked him what is the everyday application for this besides medication and body movement. He told me to grab him like in a fight. Needless to say, he manipulated my body like it was a ragdoll. I then realized how out of focus I was in my movements as well as in my mind. It was a real awakening for me.
First of all my gratitude to great and lovely George, Xiaoyaozi as I call him. On his departure, he presents us such a video. With all the videos he has made, I feel him always beside me! An amazing combination of two persons from the east and west tip of Eurasia spreading positive content for the mankind!
@@disneytails nope, if you look at his channel, he uploaded like 2 months ago tops. Perhaps you mistook the context of Master Gu's comment, it is rather because George is no longer in China.
This is great George! I'm glad you left his dad in there. "A good balance of something formal and informal". It's refreshing to see something "real" on social media when so much content is overly-edited and strives for perfection.
I think a lot of human illnesses has to do with lifestyle, diet and environment. Not just genetics. I had a grandmother who lived in a Chinese village her whole life, without indoor plumbing, with barely enough electricity to power a few light bulbs. She lived into her 90's, and Grandfather passed a few years before her. My dad who lived half his life in the USA, recently passed away at age 85. Living simply, eating simply, getting enough sleep, all very important.
@@_Wai_Wai_ In "The Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine" an ancient chinesse book that has a lot of taoist influence belief to be written between 470bc and 220ce, there is a conversation between the so called yellow emperor and one of his court physicians, in one part he talks about the man and woman that lived in connection with "the earth and the sky", and those man could live their "full time" in life which he told was about 100 years, while the man that wasn't connected with that developed sickness and couldn't live all the life time they were given. He was talking about the connection with the transcendent (the sky realm), which therapeutic, spiritual and inner energy practices connects us with, and modern life kinda disconnect us from if we get lost on the turmoil of it, so yeah, your pretty much on spot, modern medicine doesn't understand that (yet) so it's not common knowledge.
I'm a kickboxing guy n I think the philosophy of this and other martial arts are the basis for a strong connection between mind and body, a strong moral compass and much more. Balance is essential
I don’t know what possessed me to look into this I remembered hearing about it only once yet suddenly the other day I was so overwhelmed and agitated then this popped into my mind and I looked up a quick 5 min routine. Wow I’ve never fet more at ease. I feel so happy and so relaxed and grateful while practicing. These body movements quiet my anxiety so much I’ve never felt such peace 😭😭
Literally finished my first routine tonight and wow I am so amazed at what it has done for me. I am truly thankful and never thought it would put a halt to my anxiety. I'm doing this shit for life idc
I love the guy with the rake, told to go away by 'the master' but getting on with real life, getting plenty of exercise, keeping fit as God intended, doing something useful and productive, not worried about the internet, l follow the wisdom of the rake man! :-).
Watched this this morning after doing a little tai chi over the past week for the first time. Very informative video and RAKE MAN, legend. I particularly appreciate the idea of balance and how well it is explained here. Thank you.
Hello - I am also a persistent / assiduous practitioner of Taijiquan for about 17yrs...I too have found unusual benefits -- Healing from a broken back in 2005 (taking a year and a half to walk again) - no doctors...I am now instructing and pass it on as best as I can.
Bravo on the recognition that 17 years is just a start. It took me more than 20 before I really started to get it, and 30 before I could "keep the feeling" day to day. Now, in my 50's, I'm stronger and healthier than ever. My push hands has finally started to get good as well!
@@itinerantpoet1341 That is wonderful...After ill health and regaining wholeness and energy integrity- it seems to me It appears I am healthier than most I have met - I am 59 and will move to the mountains at the earliest opportunity - Thank you for your reply ... In Living Kindness ~ april
The episode tell you immediately one of the firm first rules of journey in China:- you are never alone, always some one is nearby you to see what you are doing. Master Gu was very polite. And thanks for this wonderful lesson
I love how this looks like it can help me channel my angry energy into something good that can help me lose weight and be more mindful, I found some beginner stuff and hope to make this a habit
Thank you for this introductory lecture. It's been such a blessing to the art that these Taoist masters have emerged in recent decades to teach the public! 🙏
Love the video. Taiji is the vectoring universal force that originates from stillness and creates polarity. A martial art was designed to mimic this force. It’s like jumping down a rabbit hole with this concept, you’ll start seeing it EVERYWHERE.
George Thompson You to as well I say this because without you George... Master Gu’s words,energy,presence would still be hidden from us as it was from you at one time. 😌☯️
Dude with the rake seemed fully enlightened in his work and the master teaching Tai Chi principles to help others did not mind the interruption, patience is a virtue after all.
Thank you for the valuable introduction. I am on a new journey re-discovering myself as I hated my body for being called fat while I was a sexual symbol for many kidnappers and rapists and I struggle with anxiety. I am currently learning about different martial arts and tai chi chuan has taken the cup for me because it will help me in many more ways than I can count. I need a relaxed mind, I need a body that will be in harmony with my mind before I can learn to defend myself. If there are any books you can recommend, I would love to educate myself. Tai chi is a necessary life skill and that is what I will value it as. Thank you 🙏🏽
I am blessed by receiving your message in understanding. Thank you for that. I have been in a spirtual battle with addiction for quite a few years now and learning to overcome this by taking charge of the mind through the art of meditation i have much more to learn to overcome the external traps that enslave me but i become closer to nirvana with each lesson i receive in understanding. I want to travel to China or Japan to enrich my inner world by learning to live woo way from a master that lived it and is willing to help me along my spirtual journey that is life. Idk how to go about seeking a master willing to help me. I have seen your videos and believe you would fit the bill perfectly if you are willing. Thanks and God bless.
I'm going to take a look at the course. The closest place to take Tai Chi in person is over an hour drive from me. Thank you for putting that together.
How long have you been practicing master GU's classes/practicing tai chi? And what has it done for you? *this is the first video I have ever watched on tai chi, and I'm really interested in learning what it has done for you!
@@MrGrinch1225 Hi!!!!!!! This is the first video I found on Master Gu teaching Tai Chi. I discovered Master Gu thru George Thompson. Find his videos they are so amazing on an incredible Tai Chi Journey.. There you will learn of Master Gu and his wisdom and teachings. I find him very smart, sweet and genuine. He is very relatable and has a beautiful free strong spirit, I love to see him and George do Tai Chi together and I am saving all the videos I find to put them in an order for me to follow. I did discover TAIFLOW she is in a Leah Cohen and she has a video for beginners which has 4 modules to follow. I been doing that for 2 weeks. Not every day as I wish I could. But once I mastered that I will beginning to see which video I can keep up with Master Gu. Let me know what works for you as well. I started this because I will be 54 and I need to find balance and peace and relax and I think this is something I can master and truly enjoy, Let me know how it goes for you and how you find George to be. I think you will really like Master Gu and George. Good Luck, lots of blessings and be safe!
@@mastergutaichi Thank you so much for your note! I truly appreciate it. I have really enjoyed watching George, Master Gu and everyone in the Tai Chi Family! I send you all love and well wishes and keep doing what you do.

My zodiac sign is cancer ♋️ so I looked up what the best exercise is for me. I like swimming but pools are closed because of the pandemic and winter is coming so I looked up what it recommended based off my sign and the article said tai chi. I’ve always wanted to get into a form of martial arts but I’m intimidated and don’t have much energy.... this looks like it would be my kind of activity so I’m goi got give it a try. Wish me luck!
Hi iam Margie Sanchez just read your story doing the form of tai chi it's a wonderful thing happy practicing the form iam too have the exact same zodiac as you do i didn't know that doing the form of tai chi was a moon child exercise thanks for the important information about that so now I really have to be very happy and grateful for my first tai chi teacher Robert morning star he taught me the form not for that reason but because I had tmj tension in my jaws and now I am ok and I hardly ever get attacks of asthma because of the form of tai chi of course i now go to the white dragon school in California San Diego thanks for sharing your story with me miss Margie Sanchez have a great life and journey with your tai chi form! Iam so happy for you so much happy and excited about it! Margie Sanchez
I just bought the meditation course yesterday ❤ and was looking online for a Tai Chi instructor ... so this is wonderful 😊 Thank you for sharing Master Gu 🙏 and for all of your hard work George 👍
its not authentic, and you are going to get no where with it even if you practiced it for 1000 years. The only two true forms is kings and Jung. if it is not of southern china, then it is fake!
Water bending is actually based upon T'ai chi ch'üan, so... 🤷🏽♂️ And Air bending is based upon Ba Gua Zhang (eight trigram palm) of the Wudang Earth bending is based upon Hung Ga of the southern Shaolin and finally, Fire bending is based upon the Northern Shaolin Boxing School. 😉

See my picture right, this is the hill near my home in Yorkshire, England. I do Qi Gong here, near these lovely cows!!! I like also watching your show and thank you George and also Shifu Gu!!! Thank You!!!
@@Way827 Born in Huddersfield, but lived in Texas for the last 40 years, and now planning to return, next Summer, to live in Yorkshire again! Am a yoga instructor now delving onto learning to teach tai chi. ;)

If you can't get to China, there's a place in the mountains of New Hampshire where you can go to train full time in the summer with a true taoist wudang master.
Thanks for an introduction to Tai Chi. I'm going for my 4th Dan Grade in WTF TaeKwonDo in 2021 so I've been searching for another martial art to learn. Thanks again.
master Gu is the first Chinese master of sacred martial art i have know who interpreted chinese knowledge in english in science way, along with Mantak Chia. thank you!
Greetings. Having both practised Ba-Gua Zhang as well as studied Geoff's Doorman videos, I immediately went to Udemy to get this, but found it was $155 (cdn)! Hopefully it will be on sale soon.

This was great, I've been looking for "learning powerful methods to build your Chi energy" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Fellmeroni Rudimentary Chi - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my mate got great success with it.
Just wonderful, been searching for "learning powerful methods to build your Chi energy" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Fellmeroni Rudimentary Chi - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my neighbour got excellent results with it.
The universal principle. This science I've studied for years and I've just scratched the surface of this art. This art and the other branches of the tree , where tai chi is the foundation as well as qigong the internal principles are the expression of the balance of not just the elements, but a balance of spirit and matter , Present in the moment in its execution and power tai chi As the hub of the wheel where many systems met as a martial art with and without weapons , is also a system of forms for health and the repetitive conditioning of the body mind and spirit. When combined with Chinese medicine it is a very beneficial lifestyle . Its gifts lay in its repetition and how it becomes 2nd nature. I have learned much from the traditional world of these systems.
Just bought the course! I need tai chi in my life because I have had a severe muscle imbalance in my body that led me to pain and inability to do what I love most. Playing bass. I got a back pain program to help with that, and now I need the stretch and peace. Thank you for this course!
I hope that you learned from your mistake and now make multiple backups. I have 2 separate hard drives on my laptop and use a large capacity thumb drive and I always upload to a cloud server. Dropbox, Google and Microsoft have cloud backup services and there are other reliable ones. I guess you know the huge advantage of the cloud because it is available from anywhere and you can send large files to people very easily. Looking forward to seeing the videos. I am very Interested in taiji quan and it's benefits. I am 71 years old and have always been open to new things.
¡Hola! ¿Qué tal? Es la primera vez que te escribo y que comento por aquí, pero lo he creído necesario porque parece que no te has dado cuenta. La mayoría de los enlaces que pones bajo este vídeo, en la cajita de comentarios, NO funcionan. A veces ocurre esto en esta plataforma y hay que renovarlos, actualizarlos. Por si te sirve de ayuda. Gracias por/tu vuestro trabajo. 🙏
The interruption makes the lesson all the better...a reflection of life. Thank you.
It is all balance then the one behind cam interrupts it
Indeed.
It means to keep going no matter what
i know im asking randomly but does any of you know a way to get back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow forgot my password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Giovanni Ryder instablaster ;)
The rake guy is my new icon
how fucking brilliant is he ay
Trump must have been inspired by the rake guy.
Noop noop
I feel also proud of my Dad, who accidentally" intruded" into our formal video making scene. He is always a hard working man! He never knows he also becomes world famous!
A rake guy is a person who upon entering the garden brings in the Tao.
My fave part of the video starts at 1:55
"The Great Entrance of Rake Master "
Im happy my father becomes Rake Master and a rare Master!
this Is advantage Level...
Yes indeed love it

Wish I could meet Master Gu for once. It's hard to not appreciate Taoist Wisdom and Masters :)
Great video George! Love from india!
If you can't get to China, there's a place in the mountains of New Hampshire where you can go to train full time in the summer with a true taoist wudang master.
Thanks for an introduction to Tai Chi.
I'm going for my 4th Dan Grade in WTF TaeKwonDo in 2021 so I've been searching for another martial art to learn.
Thanks again.

Silence hung in the mountains-
A waft carried chants from a monastery,
a flock of birds joined.
nice haiku
Very nice video my friend !
Spontaneously natural way to learn about tai chi
I could listen to Master Gu all day. Thank you for this great video. ☯️✨🫶🏼
Really nicely done Master Gu and George. The guy with the rake was great for some comic relief. I'm sharing this to my local Tai Chi group. Thanks!

Rake man troll level: GOD
Greetings. Having both practised Ba-Gua Zhang as well as studied Geoff's Doorman videos, I immediately went to Udemy to get this, but found it was $155 (cdn)! Hopefully it will be on sale soon.
I love the guy with the rake, so wholesome
I want a master like him! His more than just a teacher.
Im more than just a teacher: because im also a student in the journey of Taoist cultivation!

Hey thanks for opening up this comment!
I’d like to tell you more about the story of the Taoist Wellness Online, Master Gu’s Online Academy. How the Academy started is quite a funny story 🙈.
We could never have imagined that today we are now the biggest Tai Chi school IN THE WORLD!
It all began when I was 3 years into my journey living with Master Gu in his mountainous Tai Chi School.
Master Gu is fluent in English and has always seen it as his life mission to share the healing Taoist arts of Tai Chi, Qi Gong and Meditation with the world. He shared with me his vision to create not only online courses, but an online Academy.
I was excited by this vision and shared how I could use my filmmaking and inter-web skillz to make it happen.
We then had a cup of tea and Master Gu sang Chinese opera while playing the guitar… 🤠☯
We are really proud of what we have built. We now are a 16-person team from 7 countries and we are on a mission to create films, communities and transformative education to help people and planet live in balance.
The Online Academy is one of the best ways you can help us on our mission and you get so much learning!
If you become a student of the online Academy, you get:
- Access to 100+ hours of teaching with Master Gu, recorded with love from the heart of China.
- Learn with him in forests, caves and temples - all from the comfort of your own home.
- An awesome student community! With regular online meet-ups.
- Monthly livestreams with George and Master Gu

Hi George I am traveling to Wudang on Monday, I will like to Find MAster Gu
Thank you for sharing all this wisdom! The world needs more mens like you ☯🙏
This was great, I've been looking for "learning powerful methods to build your Chi energy" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Fellmeroni Rudimentary Chi - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my mate got great success with it.
Just wonderful, been searching for "learning powerful methods to build your Chi energy" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Fellmeroni Rudimentary Chi - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my neighbour got excellent results with it.
Woow amazing
The universal principle.
This science I've studied for years and I've just scratched the surface of this art. This art and the other branches of the tree , where tai chi is the foundation as well as qigong the internal principles are the expression of the balance of not just the elements, but a balance of spirit and matter ,
Present in the moment in its execution and power tai chi
As the hub of the wheel where many systems met as a martial art with and without weapons , is also a system of forms for health and the repetitive conditioning of the body mind and spirit. When combined with Chinese medicine it is a very beneficial lifestyle . Its gifts lay in its repetition and how it becomes 2nd nature. I have learned much from the traditional world of these systems.
It's very beneficial even when not combined with Chinese medicine. If you practice taiji a few hours every day, you won't need Chinese medicine!
😇
When he said that someone was looking at a magpie and snake fighting and made a new fighting style based on that I was awed.
Thank you, Master Gu! And thank you, George! Very awesome!
glad you enjoyed!
Just bought the course! I need tai chi in my life because I have had a severe muscle imbalance in my body that led me to pain and inability to do what I love most. Playing bass. I got a back pain program to help with that, and now I need the stretch and peace. Thank you for this course!
Bass player too here, my Brother, wish u all the best
Thank you for doing this.
Thai Chi is CONNECTED TO MOTHER NATURE.. SHE providers THE ENERGY.. AND SHE, S connected TO THE universe 🥰🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽☝️😇
Thank you Master Gu!

We love you. Thank you for this body of work. I’ve only just discovered Tai Chi...and I feel that this is my next step.
Boho Babie, welcome to brilliant world of Tai chi !
The rake guy is master Gu’s dad. That’s just perfect.
Another great video George, thank you for sharing! Good to hear about the 'Tai Chi' without the emphasizing on the 'Quan'.
indeed!
Did he really say "Dad"? Priceless!! Excellent video- very enjoyable and informative. Thank you very much for posting! 💚
Its just a chinese way to refer to an older more experienced person
taichi is very Healthy exercise!
I love T'ai Chi and Master Gu💓🌸
tai chi family 👊
I love Tai Chi and Master Gu -- hahaha sounds like a penetrating slogan!
I hope that you learned from your mistake and now make multiple backups. I have 2 separate hard drives on my laptop and use a large capacity thumb drive and I always upload to a cloud server. Dropbox, Google and Microsoft have cloud backup services and there are other reliable ones. I guess you know the huge advantage of the cloud because it is available from anywhere and you can send large files to people very easily. Looking forward to seeing the videos. I am very Interested in taiji quan and it's benefits. I am 71 years old and have always been open to new things.
At 2:00, it was really amazing.😄😄😄👍

¡Hola! ¿Qué tal? Es la primera vez que te escribo y que comento por aquí, pero lo he creído necesario porque parece que no te has dado cuenta. La mayoría de los enlaces que pones bajo este vídeo, en la cajita de comentarios, NO funcionan. A veces ocurre esto en esta plataforma y hay que renovarlos, actualizarlos. Por si te sirve de ayuda. Gracias por/tu vuestro trabajo. 🙏
