You are definitely entitled to your opinion. However, insults are not really yogic. Ever heard of Ahimsa? Why such dogma? 

I have been practicing the 5 Tibetans for over 15 years and, some days, the movements and the breath are really slow, on others, it is much faster according to the energy and the needs of the moment.

BTW, I do find the story of Col Bradford rather bizare and Kelder's approach quite dogmatic!

I took my inspiration from Christopher Kilham's book that is more factual.

[DanLetts97]

Interesting. I was under the impression that they were meant to be timed with the breath. I didn't realize they were done this fast. Are you holding your breath while performing them??

[Flyogi]

@DanLetts97 ,

The breath is indeed coordinated with the movements.

The Five Tibetans are about energy (prana) and, in yoga, the breath is associated with prana.

A prerequisite to breathing while doing the exercices fast, is mastery of the breath.

This is achieved by practicing various breath control exercises (pranayama) so that the breath can flow freely.

That practice would include 3-part breath (Dirgha), Skull cleansing breath (Kapalabhati) and, eventually, Bellows breath (Bhastika).

@plaintruth17

Why be so adamant ?

No one HAS to buy this DVD or any of the books about the 5 Tibetans.

The DVD is offered as a teaching aid to help people build up their practice and modify the exercices as required so that they can perform them in a safe way.

May there be peace in your mind, peace in your heart, peace in your world and peace in THE wolrd.

Namasté,

Flyogi

I though this were supposed to be done slowly ,can't imagine a tibetian doing them that fast.

[Flyogi]

@xhen12

The external movements do not HAVE to be slow (or fast).

However, your mind needs to be in a meditative state (satvic).

Some days, the inner energy is very fast (rajasic) and you can choose to match it with fast exercises (and possibly blow off any excess febrility) or to slow it down voluntarily with slower exercises.

Other days, it is very slow (tamasic) and, again you can choose to speed it up by doing the exercises fast or match it and do them slowly.

Experiment !

Do you have to wear a Speedo in order for the exercises to work correctly?

[paulozullu]

It's wrong. You're doing too fast!

[stretavkaBB]

...not only this vid of 5Tibetan does not help, the way you are doing it in this video may be harmful to your body.

1. you are doing it way too fast - you should be tranquil and put emphasis on breathing while doing the rites

2. you do not explain the breathing technique

3. also you do not move the correct way

With all due respect It seems to me quite disgusting trying to make profit out of selling this via DVD to "not so well informed" public.

For us, the ordinary, 2~3 cycles a minute may be appropriate target in relaxed posture as 1 year achievement, 3~4 cycles while 5 rites movements.

[hopark754]

So, I am glad to see a lot talks on Breathing on this page.

The movements, motions in 5 rites are to help and promote "hypogastric breathing"

The 5 rites are one of the "hypogastric breathing" practice throughout in Orient.

The slower, deep, continuous, uniform breathing, more and more slower, eventually unconsciousness of breathing. That's the concept of the breathing, and originally to remove the obstacle(breathing) to meditation.

[hopark754]

I 'mso worry about all know the 5 rites as streching, muscle excercise like that...

I found few rightly teaching on youtub. Being rejuvenated by such a simple practice of 5 streching movements? How could you have such a thought that such simple secret should rejuvenate you?

No! Never! But, yes a little help.

Colonel Bradford didn't have any knowledge on deep breathing.

To understand 5 rites, You have to understand on the "hypogastric breathing" practice throughout in Orient.

this story is from the book and all re this tibetans is a crap!

[jude1606]

This is the best video, as no one in Tibet (That I have meet, Yet) has ever heard of "the five Tibetan rites" or the book ("The secret fountain of youth" its American) they can be done however suits you & your breathing. If you read the book these are the closest . PS Its a fantastic book....Have done the rites for 6 years cant live with out them, I do at this speed...invigorating or meditative just enjoy..

[aureliosantana08]

does anyone else get a real euphoric, "flushed" feeling when doing these??

i notice that my face tingles, mr cheeks go rosy, a vein (or something) just under my jaw seems to make my whole face flush and when i look in the mirror i look really rejuvinated?

[Arxentum]

you shouldn't do more than 21 times each exercise per day... its contraproductive for the body, i read it many times... i also saw it always very slow, but i might supose that it becomes faster and faster as soon as you get more use to it, you just soudn't forget the breathing...
