    Tai Chi originates from ancient China based on nature and harmony. The flowing movements contain much inner strength for health and healing. There are many styles and forms of Tai Chi all with different features. Yang is the most popular style characterized by gentle, graceful and expansive movements.
    The 40 Forms set is more compact than the traditional Yang 108 Forms and contains all features, techniques and internal energy of the style.
    Dr Lam starts his Tai Chi journey with Yang style more than 40 years ago; nowadays he practice Yang style with this set because it is very well composed. You can learn all techniques in less time.

      I had a hip replacement three months ago. I know there are limitations to what I can do being that I am in Physical Therapy right now. This looks like it will help me in strengthening my quads and arms. I am 67 years old. I’m on my journey to walking again without the aid of a walker or a cane! It’s been 11 years since I’ve been able to do that. I’m determined! Ty for your videos! Can’t wait to start!

    I have answered this several times, making a dvd is a very expensive exercise, once made it is difficult to change let alone the immense cost. Our team did our best, we paid for a professional announcer - and did everything else as profesional and as good as we could. We produced our work with passion and the only objective to help empower people to improve health and wellness. No way we can please everyone or change everything. Thanks for all those who support and appreciate our work and benefited from it. Thanks for those who understand and appreciate how much work and expense we put in compare to vast majority of dvds, and that there is no perfection for every viewer. May I suggest coming to my workshop then you would just have my voice and no announcer.

I want to help people fight for better quality of life, fight for harmony and peace. I am a medical doctor who focuses on preventive medicine, my colleagues and I care about people and their health. I have been a family physician for over forty years, I involved in many medical research - my passion is at helping people.

I am so thankful I did this because it is truly helpful to keep it clean. I am grateful that recycling is possible we are saving ourselves each time.

    "It's better to learn fewer movements well, than rushing through many movements". Exactly how I feel about yoga! I'm excited to learn and incorporate Tai chi into my exercise regime. It's a recommended exercise for my blood type, according to Dr. D'Adamo's book, Eat Right 4 Your Type. I have 18 years of ballet and ballroom dancing, and love yoga, so I'm excited to learn this art of movement! Thank you for putting this for free on TH-cam!! Your passion for it must be immense to make it available in this way, and I thank you for being a bringer of light into this dark world!

    i am so grateful for this video being available - i was bedridden 3 years ago; and this got my up, i got my balance back - and eventually - this past year i was able to get a used bicycle and ride every day for an hour. I hadn't been able to do that in 16 years because of loss of balance in my inner ear - but doing the exercises - helped me get this back. Now - this winter I am doing this again. because i just put my bike in the basement because we are all ice and snow now; - but i'm getting back and headaches from lack of exercise - I just had my 57 birthday - i do not feel 57 in my mind -- -but my body has been though a lot. It is good to help my body. Thank you so much

With major osteoarthritis in my back and having already had two hip replacements, my recent prognosis is life in a wheelchair in 5-10 years.... at not quite 60 years old, I do not really look forward to old age. Yet, your program gives me hope. I've looked at other T'ai Chi videos and classes but nothing seems to take the time to explain the process the way you do. I've ordered both the beginners DVD and the T'ai chi for Arthritis after following you here and walking through the beginning program. Thank you so much. I have hope!

      You are a sweet person Dr. Lam - i'm so happy i found your videos - I have health problems that the doctors are ignoring - well; actually there is one doctor who is helping me - and he is SO OVERWORKED! I have a very odd type of vertigo, and also a head injury, spinal injury and whiplash and concussion syndrome - no one is helping me with this - and I used to be a very active person; was a dancer and would walk and sing all night - I was also a musician and performer - I slowly became house bound and bedridden because doctors would not treat me and i refuse to take narcotic medicines. My friend suggested I try Tai Chi - because i am unable to leave my house -and i don't think anyone teaches it in my town - I looked up and found your videos. I have been doing the exercises and the breathing (which is very much the same as what i was taught for yoga and Reiki) - and now - I am able to lay down flat and sleep -which i haven't been able to do for 5 months; and I go out in my garden and do the exercises and then some gardening - I love this- I am an anxious person -so this is also good for me because it is calming. My pain specialst doctor who is wonderful and does acupuncture for me thinks that the Tai Chi is a perfect thing for me to be doing for my condition. I hope that i will be able to buy a good full DVD of yours once i get the small basic moves learned and I would like to learn more! Blessings to you! Eriana.

    Sir, thank you for your videos. My mother had always wanted to learn Tai Chi. In her last days she was confined to a wheelchair after diabetic amputation, but she could move her arms and upper legs. Not too long after practicing Tai Chi she was declared nondiabetic (she had had it since the mid 80s) and able to come off insulin forever. Unfortunately the damage to her body had been done and she passed shortly thereafter.
    I believe many assisted living and nursing home residents could benefit from Tai Chi here in the US. I will recommend you to them.

    This appears to be the help I've been looking for. I live in a senior community and several have expressed interest in an exercise program. I thought tai chi would help us all with balance, and mindfulness as well as being more in tune with our bodies. Thank you for making this iTunes video as we are all on low fixed income. We are always looking for activities that help us be more healthy and well socialized.

    "Do not grasp for magical effects and exotic foreign seeming teachers,
    keep grounded and meditate just on everyday consciousness, you may
    experience some things that are unique and ever extraordinary, however
    the proper approach is to try not to be attached to miraculous
    effects, because they are not the greatest gift, what is is the slow
    joy you that begins to awaken and live in every moment regardless of
    whether 'magic' is happening to your or not or whether the world seems
    to benefit you or not at that time."

    Just a day or two ago I saw on NPR a study that said folks that did Tai Chi had a more significant reduction of blood pressure when they were at per-hypertension levels than people that did more cardio focused exercise.
    I'm gonna give it a go and see how well that works for me. Plus I could always use better flexibility and balance.
    Thanks so much for making these videos and the series. They've been a great place to start.

If you ever decide to do another, look me up. I still have all the equipment.
