My wife had Bowen treatment for her back pain. They made her lie on a hard bed for a long time with occasional visits to touch her to do their mumbo jumbo "magic". Afterwards she could not move as the pain was ten times worse. There was a student physiotherapist there who just came ...

What's the reason for all this? Filmed in a mirror, Japanese Buddhist chanting, and wrongly calling it the 73 routine, (the routine she is reported to have hated).

She is in fact, as always, demonstrating the 97 routine of her father and not the 73 competition routine composed much later by a co...

Hi sunshealth-John. This is a simple Idea of yours for people who have problems with the spins.

I do not have problems with the spins myself but I know of people who have had problems who will find this idea a help

@vvanesse59 I agree the original Sun Style is not allways done slower. However competition usually appeals to the younger and faster person who can easily perform for instance the jumping double kick introduced as part of the modifications for competition. The reason I now use the VETCH sequ...

Some experts propose that the identification of the internal martial arts with the Taoism indigenous to China and of the “external martial” arts with the foreign Buddhism of Shaolin

In 1928, Pre communist National Party generals Li Jing Lin, Zhang Zi Jiang, and Fung Zu Ziang organized a nationa...

The more you stress your bones the stronger they get. Chen Style then could be very good for osteoporosis but not good for arthritis?

How is this gentle Dr Lam sequence then better for osteoporosis than say the also gentle TCA sequence? Can anyone explain why another gentle sequence needs to be l...

I found Paul Lam's TCA Sun Style routine for arthritis exercise takes more room to do and I cannot do it in my living room at home.

These five routines take less room to do and I am now using them for exercise in my living room. Love the routine variations possible with this system.

Thanks suns...

Does this mean that Dr Lam's "Tai Chi for Arthritis" etc. is now no good for older people? ?

Surely an expert can replace all these Tai Chi for this and that, with one Tai Chi for Health? People would only have to buy one DVD then.

Many older people suffer from many ailments and it does not see...

Love your enthusiasm.

Sun Lutang's 97 step routine movements are all good for arthritis. But a short routine is suitable for those more interested in quickly learning enough for arthritis exercise, rather than having an interest in Sun Style as such, and devoting the time and effort needed to l...

Perhaps it is, but it must then be a different Sun family and not Sun Lutang's family.

Those who know it show it.

This looks like a good routine for arthritis sufferers beginning to do Tai Chi.

Teachers of Dr Paul Lam's short TCA sequences are required to attend one of his workshops every two years to maintain a license to be allowed to teach his chosen short sequence.

Are there similar restrictons placed ...

The 73 competition version was designed by a Wu Shu committee for the first Asian games and has for example a double jump kick.

If you want to see the Sun Lutang 97 version then watch Sun Jianyun, Sun Peng or Sun Surong on you tube who as members of his family all peserved the original sequence o...

There are two Sun Styles. The original Sun 97 sequence devised by Sun Lutang and a 73 sequence devised by a Wu Shu committee for competition in the first Asian games.

The latter is more athletic and standardised to suit those that want to compete for medals, and the f...

For the benefit of the uninformed this is the expertly performed more athletic competition version of Sun Style Tai Chi and is not the original Sun Style sequence of Sun Lutang.

The traditional original Sun Lutang style is more suitable for the elderly to learn.

See Sun Peng on Youtube.

Expertly done, but surely did not Sun Jian Yun walk out on the committee members devising the 73 competition style when they introduced the double jump kick, saying her father always insisted that in his style one foot should be on the ground at all times?.
