Tai Chi Yang Style 24 Short Form 

Ive been looking for a beginner instrutctional video wher the teacher is facing a mirror because l think it would be easier ro learn instead if trying to learn it in opposite direction. Thamkyou

i really love the names of the moves. my favorite is "return the tiger to the mountain". I'm a naturalist, and i agree, we must return the tiger to the mountain.

I love Tai chi for what it can do in terms of balance stability relaxation QiFlow and all the other therapeutic uses of the art form. But realistically when people start referring to it as an art of combat I kind of have to shake my head. I can’t realistically see it going up against Muaythai full contact karate boxing or any other aggressive type of fighting. Just because the art has a few techniques which are blocks and strikes doesn’t mean that you’re going to be awesome if you apply the techniques in a fight. Fighting is a whole different animal requiring a specific hardSet of skills and exercises to make one proficient to defend oneself. If you’re looking for an art to help you in self-defense tai chi in my opinion isn’t the one for you

Good, slow, video to see the movements. But I noticed the parting of the wild horses manes "ball" looked under formed and sloppy. I would compare videos with Dr. Yang to this lady and would probably use this one to learn 24 style. I have Dr. Yangs dvd and that's 3 hours of him telling you about each pose from one camera angle. With the mirror here I see more. Thanks.

I had double knee replacement and have a torn rotator cuff. This is the best exercise. Thank you Rochester Tai Chi Academy for such a great experience.❤

I find women more comfortable to learn from because they have a very calming and soothing influence on me. 🙏

I do tai chi chuan since 1990 not the whole form, only in brackets!❤ From Germany

Recently I loss my faith in yang short form tai chi 60 movements but a day ago n yesterday I've began to see the light n would u be kind enough send more videos n wisdom

Check this out at lower speeds! Great way to learn at your own pace.

A female yeah!!!!

Thank you so much for giving a demonstration with the names, especially with the mirror...🙏

Seeing the actions reflected in the mirror is very useful. Unfortunately the all black clothing looses detail and makes some movements difficult to replicate. I can see the hands but not the precise arm movements.

🙌🌟🙌🌟🙌🌟 Omg! Thank you. I’ve been searching for this form for a decade!!!! ❤ Back in the early nineties I attended the greatest school on earth 🙌 I.P. S.B. in Culver City LA. We began each day with this form as it is the foundation of our bodywork practice. I’ve missed doing it and now I have been reunited ❤❤❤❤❤❤ Thank you 🙏🏻 Whatta treasure! 🐸

I am using 2x speed to play this video and it is still very slow. I think if I play 8x, I can see the real Kung Fu behind it. And I am serious. There is real meaning behind each move for offense and defense. It is all about speed and balance when it comes to fights. If you add speed to it, you can use it for fighting.

wonderful execution. what style! calm and clear. I hope there are more.

Beautiful form

Great video

How long have you trained?

It might help to practice the form with the 'martial' application in mind - literally. The first move where the young lady raises her hand's is a block to an incoming punch, in 'reality' you would raise just one hand - right or left depending on the direction of the incoming punch (and you would not have your arms down by your side - that would not be good in a conflict situation, you want your hands raised some, palms facing chest in a non threatening, yet 'ready to move with minimal distance to get to the block' position). Without the martial application in mind it is said that you are just dancing!

Finally a video that completes the 24 step that I missed out on during Rec center tai chi program with Mr. Han. Thank you for posting!!!

Possibly the most elegant sequence of movements I've ever seen.

I’m new to this and I think you’re going to teach me the tai chi I will follow for the rest of my life. 🥰

Can you please do this form similar to the series you have done for 8 form tai chi for 30 days. I loved this and found it a great way to start to learn the basics of tai chi. Thank you 🙏

Outstanding. Great idea to do the presentation in front of a mirror so we can see two perspectives.

Thank you 🙏🏼 form is easier to follow than many videos that I’ve seen In Gassho 📿

Excellent thanks
