Very Uninspiring

"Both the beginer and intermediate level DVDs are very uninspiring. When watching taichi demonstration by great masters (performers) I feel inspired and very motivated to practice hard. When watching Claire Hooton's performing Tai Chi I don't even have the feeling that I'm watching taichi. I doubt that advanced tai chi practicioners would get something from these DVDs. As for beginers and intermediate practicioners, they need to see clean, large movements because this is what they understand. The underlying principles become clear only after years of practice. But one cannot practice unless they understand at least the kinetics behind tai chi. This kinetics is not clear at all in these DVD presentations."
