Relax and Recharge Your Mind, Body, and Spirit.

Cool down after a long day! Master-teacher Ramel Rones gently guides you through a series of powerful mind/body exercises that will help you calm down, recuperate from the stress of the day, and use the energy of the setting sun to release tension.

The simplified, short Sunset Tai Chi sequence is practiced to both the left and right to help you develop symmetry and balance. Sunset Tai Chi was created as a comprehensive introduction to authentic Tai Chi for beginners. It includes suggestions for intermediate and advanced students, to help you grow and improve over time. A full mind/body workout is presented, which can be done sitting or standing, using restoring poses from yoga, and purifying movements and meditations from qigong and tai chi, followed by the tai chi stances, drills, and form.

Sunset Tai Chi will help you to loosen and build your muscles, tendons and ligaments, improving your circulation of blood and Qi energy. The program also teaches you to find balance between strength and flexibility, counteract the effects of stress and fatigue, and regain conscious control over your health and vitality.

This DVD compliments the bestselling Sunrise Tai Chi program, and together they present a complete mind/body regimen. Using detailed animations of the body's energy, the secrets of the ancient internal arts are taught for the first time in an easy-to-understand format.

A great video
I really like the feature of this DVD in that it allows you to choose the kind of workout you want, and you can choose how much time you have available. It's great to be able to customize the workout.
I learned a lot from all of the technical information and the examples to explain the various ideas of Tai Chi.
It is a very helpful, informative and enjoyable instructional DVD.

sunset tai chi = perfect
I've used this program 5x week for 1 month now.
here are the changes i have noticed in my life.
1.my ability to let go and relax (was always a problem for me) has improved hugely.
2.i am sleeping much better, falling asleep faster.
3.confidence has increased for sure..i feel more comfortable in all situations.
4.i have more energy throughout the day.
5.my balance has noticeably improved.
HERE ARE THE NEGATIVES I'VE NOTICED AFTER USING THIS PROGRAM
1.NOTHING
BUY IT YOU WON'T REGRET IT!!!!!!!

Great for beginners
This is a great video for a beginner without regular access to a teacher and might offer some insights to the experienced practitioner. I have personally seen a marked improvement in the relaxing of my shoulders.

What I really think is a plus is the wide selection of workout choices. Mr. Rones has taken into account how much time you have available and your personal level of comfort with each technique.

You'll also find that the animation used can improve visualization in your meditation. For a beginner this is very important because the direction of focus can radically improve chances of success.

Consider getting this in conjunction with the Sunrise Tai Chi DVD for an even more well rounded practice.

A great way to end the day
This DVD is a great addition to my collection. The forms and exercises presented have given me a wonderful routine to follow as I wind down from the stresses of the day. The companion disc, Sunrise Tai Chi, provides the perfect bookend to my routine.

I found the disc easy to follow and the routine flows. It is easy to remember which is key to being able to keep it up after you've played the disc a couple of times. I like this quite a bit and would recommend it to others.

Good DVD
Sunset Tai Chi includes a set of simple chi gung exercises and a short form tai chi that even a beginner such as me can learn and enjoy. I found the tai chi set calms my nerves after a stressful day. The instructions for the simple chi gung exercises were effective in instructing a person in performing them in a correct manner. Although any martial art or chi gung practice is best learned with the help of a competent instructor, this is a valuable supplement to such training. If you are in an area where such instructors are not available, this DVD will get you started on exploring your internal energy.
