AWAKEN, HEAL, AND STRENGTHEN YOUR BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT

Let the sun shine in! Master-teacher Ramel Rones gently guides you through the morning with a series of powerful mind/body exercises that awaken the senses, stimulate the mind, and fill your body and Spirit with abundant energy.

Captured in high-definition at the beautiful Harvard University Arboretum, this simplified, short Tai Chi sequence is practiced to both the left and right for balance. Sunrise Tai Chi was created as a comprehensive introduction to authentic Tai Chi, which will allow you to fine-tune your practice before moving on to more complex Tai Chi. It includes suggestions for intermediate and advanced students, to help you grow and improve over time.

Each day, millions of people worldwide practice Tai Chi Chuan (Taijiquan), which has been known for centuries to promote deep relaxation, excellent health, & to prevent injuries & illness. The movements in Sunrise Tai Chi will help you to loosen & build your muscles, tendons & ligaments, which will improve your circulation of blood & Qi energy. The program also teaches you to find balance between strength & flexibility, increase bone density, & massage the internal organs, improving your quality of life & daily physical performance.

relaxation delivered
I have never done T'ai Chi and got this hoping to acheive greater flexibility..which I acheived much faster than I would have imagined plus calm centered start to the day.The instructor seems slow until you realise that's the point.Then it is just right.Music bacgrounds keep me focused.Also I like the combo of sitting and standing exercises.Only reason for lack of 5 stars is I am not experienced with other instructors.

Great DVD
This DVD is extensive in the amount of material that it presents - it guides you thourgh porper demonstration/form, more detialed instruction and the workouts, which range in length of time.

The is alot of valuable information on this video and it is well worth the effort to try to watch it all - great care for the subject matter is obvious throughout the DVD.

This is a great addition to my exercises.

A Good Stretch
A simple guide to stretching.
It's easy to follow and so simple sometimes you don't realize until the next day how much you have accomplished.

Wow!!! I feel So much better!!!!!
This Tai Chi DVD is wonderful. I have only done the introductory part and it has helped my balance and legs already. I also bought Mr. Rones Sunset Tai Chi to do before I go to bed and that has helped relieve tension in my sholder and neck muscles.

The exercises in the beginning take over an hour to do but are done slowly enough so a novice can see how to do them. Some of are basic stretch exercises others zero in on specific muscle groups and all of them make me feel better. In spite of being introductory, I can only do them every other day. But my disposition is improving -- I am happier and have more energy and this after only a couple of weeks. It helps my arthritis too. I am more flexible.

I still havn't tried or looked at the rest of the dvd where actual T'ai Chi exercises are put together in a seamless flowing field of energy and movement. However, for the part I am working on, I do want to say, Thank you, Mr. Rones!!!

as good as it gets
this is a pretty good video on tai chi though learning the chi kung aspect of it I would leave in the hands of an experienced instructor .this is a good video to do along a true tai chi class
