This is FANTASTIC. I haven't done Tai Chi for 2 years and I had practically forgotten this form. This video was just what I needed to get it back. Thank you!

Thank you for adding the titles to this video. It is helpful review.

Thank you for posting this video, I take a Senior Tai chi class and it was recommended to see the flow. We adjust for our "experience" and "mature" level. Thanks again

Of all Tai Chi clips, this is my favourite, and most valuable to me, it will anable me to now practice at home the form that I was taught. This lady is a pleasure to watch and the music well chosen, thankyou Bob Martin.

Thank you for putting this video up with English titles. What a beautiful art form and a great exercise. She performs it beautifully.

thanks for providing the subtitles in such an artful way; the rhythm of the fadeouts allows continuous viewing of these graceful movements. I find I'm learning the flow and retaining the sequence much quicker than before. Please receive my deep gratitude for your efforts.

Great! This is the music that I am doing for the tai chi class in the cruise ship. Thank you!

Excellent rendition of this beautiful art-I'm a beginning student & this helps me see the movements & pause when necessary

Thanks for the comment. I made it to help myself learn.

I appreciate you giving us the English Titles...:)

Nicely done! We learned Martin Lee's Becoming One With Nature form and are beginning this one. It helps to have good videos like this. Lee's book is excellent, but the video adds far more info. And we get to see a completely amazingly graceful expert! (I have hope for my elder years;)

This is a beautiful video. Thanks for posting it.

SUPERB examples of form, naming and Music

Thank you for the English titles.

I look through many Taichi 24 performance. This lady is the best. She combine the spirit and movements successfully. Though she seems not move too much but you can feel the powerful of being still. Thanks for telling the name. Hope I can find some other her videos.

I see!....no problem when approaching it from the player's perspective! Thanks for sharing your efforts.

Thank you very much for the information. I'll post it with videos.

Video is very well taken and the exercise beautifully and gracefully executed. Music is perfect. Just fantastic movements. I enjoy it very much,

Just started Yang last week although I have prior Kung Fu experience. This is a great reference. Thanks!

Her name is Gao Jiamin. According to Kungfu Magazine (July 2000 issue) she was born in Fuzhou City, Fujian Province, China June 26, 1966. At the time of the article she had "won 32 gold medals, a record that has never been achieved by any other competitor". Currently a chief instructor at "US Wushu Center" in Portland, OR.

Thank you for the effort of the English titles. It helps me a helluva' lot; so what if they were `superimposed'. I used the pause click to write them down anyway. Besides, this same person/form is posted on other KZreads doing the same form regular and slow. Now I have all three..

I Love the titles as we watch

Best I've seen for learning this.

Holding the Ball is the position before Parting the horse's Mane, you hold the "globe" in front of your chest, than you move your two hands below the horse mane, you must see the form's metaphors my friend!!!

This really helps to learn the title with the movements. Thanks

THANK YOU AND THANK YOU !

The perfect and correct music to accompany Tai Chi 24Yang style

Thanks for commenting. Yes, she is good. I'll have to see if I can do transparent titles. The opaque titles are not actually concealing much, just a little bit during the fades in and out--I spliced the video around the titles, so she is not actually moving when the titles are opaque.

very fluid and graceful. thumbs up

The music is "Simplified Tai Chi Chuan (24 Form)" from the CD "Tai Chi Melody" by the Shanghai Chinese Traditional Orchestra.

ah it is not on Amazon mp3 store anymore, and not on the USA or Hong Kong iTunes store... only in the Taiwan iTunes store, except without a Taiwan credit card, it cannot be purchased. Any way that it can be bought?

+ac2leung I couldn't find it but I suggested to the company that publish the music to sell it on iTunes, and they added it to iTunes in a week or so (they already sell other music on iTunes)

Cool :)

Absolutely correct. However, the forms are called "42 form", "24 form", "8 form", etc., because each form consists of a number of conceptually distinct (and countable) movements. The purpose of this video is to help beginners distinguish the movements.

Great. Thank You

Beautiful!

excelent THANK U!

9/10/08. KZread recently changed the way this video appears in searches. The best way to find it now is to search "Titles Tai Chi"

Awesome, simple awesome =)

Lightfoot, this is actually a TaiJi competition song and should be easy to find? Wat a great 24 form demonstration! but it would have been much nicer if the "titles" were superimposed over the tai chi player (instead of cutting away from her to display them.) I mean, tai chi is all about movement of Qi, and these titles interrupt the flow (4 me anywayz)

does anybody know the name of the song of the music, or where one would go to look it up?

Gao Jiamin is also the performer in Li Deyin's instructional DVD "42 Forms Tai Chi Quan" (ISBN: 7883068040). The 42 Form was created in 1989 by grandmaster Li De Yin (aka "Li Deyin") for the Chinese Sports Committee and was one of her instructors. I believe she is also a demonstrator of correct form in a 2003 International Wushu Federation (IWUF) rules video.

nice she to good at what she dose ;p i would love to go there

Music is from Alan Watts :-)

The names used on the video are taken from the sources cited at the end of the video. The names are not particularly important, except to distinguish and help conceptualize the movements.

The names and forms are all correct and beautifully done. My suggestion is that the names should be standarised in chinese spelling to difuse complication, just like latin on scientific names. For example:- 1) Qishi, 2) Yema Fenzong, 3) Baihe Liangchi, etc. Thank you for the post.

Well, I am a very suntanned ghost.

Good catch. I focused on the hand pushing the shuttle, with respect to which the "Left" and "Right" labels are correct. You focused on the direction of the step, with respect to which my labels are backwards. Your way probably would have been better. I'd fix it if I could without reloading the video and restarting the count.

good one

I like thid Tai Chi....However how could I learn the Tai Chi movements??? Could somebody teach me...

@DJGahann AS my Sifu told me, do it so that it is comfortable for you. If you can't get that low, then you can't get that low. If you want, just try getting a bit lower ever week or so, instead of trying to do it all in one big try. The phrase "no pain, no gain" is wrong.

Low inpack on body the art gets better as we age

I don't know who she is but she's a Goddess!!!

Do you know here name and where she is from? It would be nice to give her credit on this video.

Bagus benget gerakan Tai Chi ini....Siapakah yang bisa mengajariku????

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

The English is a great help! [just curious...are the left and right labels on Jade Lady reversed???]

Funny. I'm an Oregonian living in China where I have studied taijiquan. Now, I see that Gao Jiamin is teaching in my hometown. Nice video. Do you have one for Yang Style Taiji Jian (sword) 32 form?

@AmazinglyEpicMegas pat the high horse is a different movement.

@AmazinglyEpicMegas To speak correctly. it is Part the wild horses mane and for #4 - Brush knee twist step. #5 is strum the lute. and EpicMegas. Fair maiden works the shuttles is what it is. High pad on horse is the move prior to the kick After the roosters on one leg, goes into Fair Maiden works theshuttles. =] I'm typign this while I'm watching this.. A lot of the name on this one are incorrect.. but as Bob says.. it's not particularly imporant and #13 is Box the ears

Posting so I can keep reviewing. MWF with Elizabeth Irvine.

Thanks for the video, I used it to learn tai chi and still use it now

The form needs to be connected into a flow to be meaningful.

this is 24 form NOT 42 form.....,i am sure was created 1950's by Chinese Sports Committee, not in year 1989, it's a very good form so.

@clampolo And I can tell you, that move is hard!!! LOL

johan khokhay

Good but too fast for beginner, be back later
