which is recommended.....breathing out from your mouth or from your nose?:) nice vid...tai chi forever....!!!! tnx for posting

[taichimatt]

dear cryonicwrrior7

ideally: in and out through the nose, with the tongue on the roof of the mouth. however if the body gets too hot, you can breathe out through the mouth. many thanks for you comment, glad you like the video.

David Carradine says always in through nose and out through mouth on his Tai Chi Workout for Beginners CD which also has good Chi Kung on it. This video is terrific for visuals.

Thanks for your comment. There are differences of opinion on this, but most Qigong teachers say to breathe in and out through the nose. I hope to get a version with sound uploaded soon. Best wishes.

Thankyou for replying, i hope i didn't sound rude. It is easier to breathe through the nose. I have another question: how far apart should feet be when simply walking? Thank you for your time, actually i love the silence of this video, but will be happy to find another one from you.

[taichimatt]

hi there,

You didn't sound rude at all. RE: feet -about shoulder width for most of these exercises. For tai chi walking about the same- but important not to over-reach when you step and place the foot empty on the ground.

What a great video - Thank you so much

[olavarria73]

My tai chi teacher has tought me the third form, the second (which is the most diff) and the first one, corresponding to three elements in nature but none of the is like the ones seen on this video, Why? Which form is this one on the video?

[masterremix]

When is did the exercieses i got a high pressure in my core of my hands :)

the pressure comes on every exercise i do :)

very cool and nice

thanks for da vid!

[Mtbfanro]

@taichimatt should i still apply breathing in and out through the nose if i have a septum deviation and breathing is a bit hard through one of the nostrils?

[changobilly22]

[mziluus]

thank you. so simple. the best.

no sales,no theory, no stealing of our time

[mziluus]

so simple. thank you so much. he is not stealing peoples time like other teachers

[EarthDaoist]

shogun: these exercises are found in the Qigong Shibashi set.

[Raduldo]

Youre right, it's not Ki Qong it's Qi Gong!!!

[papasaun01]

Don't listen to marcogiando, those movements with correct breathing is absolutely Qi Gong

[shogundidier69]

from whitch school came this exercices ??? I understand some people who don't find Qi Gong

exercicces but We must thinking that there're a lot off differents exercices from different schools in china Then I'm thinking that it's a kind off Qi or Chi Gong. Thanks for your video.
