One of the principles of tai chi is the planting of the lower body to the floor, allowing the upper body to flow smoothly. The Yang Long Form is a complex series of 108 movements which promote balance, relaxation, circulation, and the energizing the chi, or life force. In this 120 minute video, instructor Terence Dunn breaks down the workout into a brief introduction of the philosophy and health benefits of tai chi: a 10-minute warm-up, a 20-minute demonstration of the basic postures, an hour of step-by-step instruction of all the postures, and finally, the video, with a 15-minute Yang Long Form exhibition. ~ Heather M.
