Yang Style Tai Chi 34 Movement Short Form, Part 1 of 7

Michael Gilman shares this simplified version of the Yang Style of Tai Chi Chuan. It contains all the essential energies of the Long Form, but leaves out the repeats and the foot kick section. Excellent form for beginners, or those with balance issues, or with less time for practice. Takes about 6 minutes to complete.
This first part shows the form from the rear for practice. It is then shown from the front, with some detail, from the rear again, then shown with correct breathing, and finally with a close look at the function of the Kua (hips).
Please visit www.gilmanstudio.com., click on online lessons, short form for all the details including the martial applications, and much more. At Gilman Studio, DVDs always ship free. Also check out Michael's other You Tube offerings.

I like the background, better than plain black. Quality of video and instruction great as always.

Thanks for the feedback. I wasn't sure if I liked the background or not. You are the first to comment on it.

Best regards,

Michael Gilman

Mr Gilman. Teaching my wife this form. Also still working on Long form (getting better at it). Feburary will be allocated for San Shou Form practice. No training partners left that have continued practice. but the form alone is of great help and slots into my TSE Eskrima techniques. In fact my Tacosa Eskrima instructor, Guro Richie Li has commented on how my recent Tai Chi practice has helped my Eskrima form since returning to Eskrma study!
