Jeff Chambers –
Enjoyable now that Mr Yang is talking – but the intro seemed to be repeated in the second part with different images. Half way through – just the right pace and the application is very interesting. Enjoying it!
Françoise Del Socorro –
From far, one of the best online Tai Chi teachers to remember and understand the movements of Yang style.
Ace –
Great explanations and multiple angles make it easy to follow.

I had read Dr.Yang’s books and his works are always very detailed. I enjoyed reading his works and then decided to take this course. His explanations are crystal clear. The forms of Tai Chi are depicted very well with detailed understanding of the why’s and how’s of every form. I would highly recommend this course to all beginning Tai Chi aspirants.
Best Regards,
Vidyashankar

Very interesting. I practiced TaiChi few years ago, then the Covid forced me to stop and I wanted to continue. I admire the work and the books of this Master, and I’m happy to learn from him, also if only on video.
Konstantina Ioannidou –
Dr. Yang is a great teacher with in-depth knowledge of the arts he practices and teaches. The explanation not only of the movements but also of their meaning and the underlying principles that apply to the martial qi gong of tai chi and any form of qi gong practice in general is exceptional. Any tai chi practitioner will gain from his teachings and this course is great for building a strong foundation in tai chi practice.

Dr. Yang provides a great overview of Tai Chi Chuan forms and while it takes time to work through all of the form, most everything you need to know is in the video – I watched it over and over to get the finer points. Great stuff!
