DVD Reviews of Eight Simple Qigong Exercises For Health - The Eight (8) Pieces of Brocade (YMAA) DVD
DVD Review: Very Informative
Summary: 4 Stars
Comprehensive Qigong dvd. 15 min sitting qigong i feel is best for cool downs or when injured. 18 min standing qigong is good for warm-up or cool down or a waking up exercise. The explanation is complete and informative. The music during the exercise segments is very relaxing. Overall the production quality is high, but in the sitting segment there is a period of amaturish camara shake. Yang's english pronunciation is clear and subtitles are provided. Presented in lecture, demonstration,practice form. The practice sesions are with music soundtrack only, a cue soundtrack would be helpful.DVD Review: clear and descriptive!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have ordered many things from YMAA. Their DVD's are very descriptive and clear. In this DVD, there is a lecture and a demo of each individual movement and a demo of the complete form. You can't go wrong with this. Everything is individually chaptered so you can go right where you want. Thanks. YMAA, Brooksy DVD Review: Very Effective
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been doing this routine for about ten years. It's a great well-rounded routine that you can do a little or a lot.
I've done it so much it's part of me and I can almost do it in my sleep.
I usually do 5 to 10 minutes, but I've had a doctor take me off my blood pressure medicine completely after a few weeks of regular half-hour sessions.
The teacher is a martial artist. But middle-aged types (like me) can do this just fine.
DVD Review: Eight Simple Qigong Exercises For Health - The Eight (8) Pieces of Brocade (YMAA) DVD
Summary: 4 Stars
I've been doing Qiqonq for many years and have tried a number of books, DVD's and tapes. This one incorporates the key elements in a very easy to understand and follow program. I would recommend reading other books that go into more depth about the principles of Qiqonq than the book that comes with this DVD.DVD Review: Good exercise for health inside out.
Summary: 5 Stars
I started this exercise for 1.5 months and see some result,since I'm overweight,it's not a weight loss(for now) but my neck & back aches were gone and more energy. I started with the same repetitions as in DVD (6)then build up to 9 and now 12 will be 24 as Dr. Yang said soon. The exercise need quiet time to do.
