Very welcome! Cheers Kevin

Regardless of how many times I do this, I still learn on refining my technique. Practice, practice and more practice.

Hi Kevin, I started Taoist Tai Chi a month ago here in Richmond, BC. Though the instructor gently suggested that we can not learn from a video, I am finding your tutorials and these review videos are a huge help to me. I can see the moves from so many angles and your verbal cues are terrific as I practice along with you. I think these videos are a tremendous resource and I thank you and Shelley for all the time and effort you offer in order for us to learn this helpful art.

Hi Erin, Congrats on starting your Tai Chi Journey! I would have to admit that back when I first started instructing, I would have said pretty much the same. Over the years however, after having so many people ask if there was some sort of resource or tools to help them practice, and seeing how many people are improving and learning from our videos, I would now have to say I was wrong. You can learn from a video but ideally, in addition to learning from an instructor and/or attending regular classes. I have found that not everybody has the opportunity of those added benefits and yet are still able to learn and further their Tai Chi because of our videos. We do these videos to help both students and instructors and this is my way of honouring Mr. Moy's request to help others and to make the learning of his Tai Chi available to everyone. Practice diligently! Cheers

AWESOME workout! Am always learning to correct myself on some fine points. Would like to read up on meditation, so I was wondering if there is a book to assist me that you would recommend? Xie xie

I can't thank you enough for doing this. Oh how I miss tai chi !!

as a beginner and one who is often away from the centre, I find it very helpful to practice when I'm away. thanks Kevin. Richard from Perth WA

Thank you so much Kevin. I’m so confused in class, but you make the moves clear and easy to follow. I’m going back to class with more confidence.

Kevin, thanks for the video. You're doing a great public service by giving these tutorials for free. Although I knew the set after 15 years of practice here in Calgary, I had forgotten almost the entire set due to a 2-year pause caused by the covid restrictions, even having forgotten that we bow in the beginning. I started watching you doing the entire set almost daily and frequently did it with you. It's great to hear the cues that you give while I practice, and sometimes I turn off the sound to force me to do it by myself. I go to a community centre, where we also do foundation exercises and the Taoist Tai Chi set, and some members know of your video. By the way, we're all seniors and I plan to tell more members in our practice class of what you present on KZread. Please keep up your efforts to preserve the gifts of Taoist Tai Chi that Master Moy gave us.

This video is such a gift being housebound with this pandemic. Thank you.

Going through is slowly and speakimg clearly with clear views of what youre doing is fabulous! Thanks again!

I am using this set to practice regularly. I appreciate both the visual and auditory cues. Thank you for making this available.

Thank you so much for your videos. I especially like the commentary on the "behind the scenes" video. You certainly help Mr Moy's wish to make tai chi available to all. Like some other beginners I have problems with sequence. This helps enormously and helps with transitioning from one move to the next. Again, Thank You!

I usually tell new beginners to give themselves at least a year before they start to critique themselves because it takes about that long ( on average) to get comfortable with the sequence and remembering the moves. The more you practice, the easier it gets! Cheers

Hi Linella, Sorry I missed this comment. All I can say is glad that you are going to class and practicing. Understanding the Tai Chi is a long process and learning isn't always easy. I would suggest trying to stay open to correction because someone might have an objective viewpoint that could help as long as they can explain what they are seeing and what you need to work on. Also if they can clearly demonstrate what they want you to do. Mr. Moy used to say that first you need to learn it, then you need to be able to demonstrate it. As an instructor you need to be able to help someone else do it but more importantly, communicate what they are doing to promote a better understanding of what the student is working on. Cheers

I am doing the ones I know plus the next one, rewinding and doing it again until I have memorized it, and then go to the next move, rewind and so on. It has made a major difference for me.

Thank you Kevin. Ive found your Tai Chi moves most helpful. Having been a member of the Daoist Tai Chi Society for 12 year, since lockdown I've been practicing at home. It's good to have a review to follow to correct any bad habits that have developed. I am very disappointed with the Daoist Tai Chi society as they have taken our subscriptions for the last 9 months and offered no support at all. I will now cancel my direct debit for the coming year. Sadly I would have expected better from a society which professes good moral ethics. Anyway, thank you so much.

Hi Kevin. Thank you very much for sharing these videos. The 108 moves video has really helped me learn the moves between my weekly classes in the last four months. Now I can (mostly) remember the moves, I will move onto the Classroom Classics to fine tune the individual moves. Currently I go to a beginner class at my gym (in West London, UK,) which is less than ideal, as the teacher just repeats the moves for the regular new joiners. Can you suggest resources to help me find a teacher that will progress my Tai Chi?

I totally agree. ❤

Hi Kevin, Thank you very much for sharing this video. I think your video is the best one in all of teaching Taichi videos. Everything is perfect except for one thing I noticed was, it’s not easy to figure out which leg you are moving. Left or right? I know we can listen to your direction but while practicing it's easier for us to copy with our eyes as well, along with our ears. So I wish you could make a new video which has a white color on your left or right leg. So when you perform we can follow and learn your wonderful technique perfectly. Thanks again and hoping we could practice with your new video soon. Merry Christmas and stay safe. Sincerely

Hi Hanh, So glad the videos are helping! Thanks for the feedback too. I am looking for some new Tai Chi video clothes so I will keep that in mind. If you want to try our Live Stream classes, we are doing our classes for the month of December for free as an early Christmas present to all our viewers/subscribers. Just send an email to theawarenesswebsite@gmail.com and ask to be added to the class list. Cheers

Thank you Kevin. It is a pleasure to watch you. I notice that recently the move after “warding off monkeys” has changed. Are u thinking of updating this move?

Hi Linella, Glad you are enjoying our videos. I understand that the FLK has been making changes to a number of moves in the set but so far I have not been able to find out exactly what the purpose or benefit of these changes are. It seems anybody that I have talked to with the FLK or TTCS can't really explain the changes nor can they really demonstrate the moves/changes clearly. Personally, I never saw Mr. Moy nor any of his closest students do any of these moves in the manner now being presented ( and I have seen a lot of unique demonstrations and variations of moves) so again, not sure of the reasons. I am sharing what has been taught to me and what I have learned over the years and don't plan on changing anything unless it can be demonstrated that there is reasonable benefit to be gained. Mr. Moy laid it all out for us right from the beginning and stated that he taught different things to different people and that it was up to us to get together to share and learn from each other and to continue to make the Tai Chi available to everyone, so that's what I am doing. If there is something I am missing or something else Mr. Moy taught and someone is willing to share and explain the benefits, I am all ears. Practice lots and pay attention to the foundations as they are the key. The moves just give you something to apply the foundations to. Keep it simple. Cheers

Very helpful to me, a beginner

Hi Anne, So glad it's helping! This is probably one of the most popular videos for practicing with and the easiest to follow according to lots of our viewers. Practice lots! Cheers

Best video for practising at home. Would love a new version with you in front of a mirror to see your arms and hands better.

Hi Donna, Thanks for watching our videos and very glad this one is helping! We get lots of suggestions for the use of mirrors but we have found it is more difficult and confusing for the viewers to follow. Also, it is hard to have mirrors doing outdoors videos like this one LOL. I talk about this a bit on our latest video on Whip to One Side so be sure to watch that one. Cheers

Hi Francine, You are very welcome! Cheers

Brilliant videos which are really me helping to understand Tai Chi. I have asked several people and not really got an answer - what is the "parry" bit of chop with fist, deflect, PARRY and punch?

Hi Kevin, I forgot to mention the Black, dark pants you wore in the video. So when you moved, I was confused sometimes, I couldn't practice automatically, keeping the same speed as you. Thanks again Kevin

@@kevinwerre2700 Hi Kevin, Thank you for replying so quickly. It would be great if you could add one White stripe on one side of your dark pants ( I think it would be okay, no need to have new pants unless you want perfect ) . I practice with your video every day, 24/7. Would you please let me know the schedule of the Live stream in December. Happy Holidays

Hi Kevin, Thank you for the time and effort you put in these videos. Do you have a CD of the full 108 set? A friend of mine does not own a computer and would dearly love to practice her Tai Chi.

I live in a very small condo. I need to keep re positioning myself in order to see and hear this video. Is there a way to get an audio only version that I could play on an MP3 player as I do the set? Your curs are very good, and I think an audio only would work for me. Thanks

Hi Jeanne We have tried a few different audio only recordings but haven't got it quite right yet. Maybe in the near future. I think a lot of people do what Linda Cummins has suggested below and just record it onto an MP3. That's seems to work and you are welcome to do that. Keep practicing! Cheers

Thank you so much Kevin. I have improved my practice from watching your videos! You are an excellent teacher. Do you have any videos or a blog that addresses the up and down part of the movements? Thank you.

Hi Leslie, Thanks and you are welcome! Glad the videos are helping! From time to time I talk about it in various videos for some of the moves but nothing specifically on that topic to date. We are planning a series just for that purpose so stay tuned. In the meantime, if you are wondering about a specific move, maybe check out the Continuing Classroom Classics series on our You Tube channel and there might be some details that could help. Or just ask and I can try to answer your questions. Cheers
