"Standing Right" and "Kicking right" seems to be a conflict or mistake in titles..

[BobMartin1222]

Thanks for the comment. Whether to call something "right" or "left" can be confusing. I have labeled the moves "right" and "left" from from the perspective of the performer (Ms. Gao Jiamin), not from the perspective of the observer, and with reference to the motion that is most significant to the form. Thus, when she is "standing right," she is standing on her right leg; when she is "kicking right" she is kicking with her right leg.

I have looked for a way to find a DVD of this tai chi 10 form that you have posted without any luck. Is there one out there and where can I find it ? thank you.... very very well done.... love to watch her.

[BobMartin1222]

I don't know about DVDs. I would think this video, together with the books credited at the end of the video, would teach you about as well as you can be taught without a teacher.
