That has cheered me up and encourage me to accept my past and to move forward with it. A wonderful, joyous man, and marvellous video, that I will watch and watch again. Thank you.

Thank You for Posting. AND Thanks to the Lecturer for HELPING US OPEN. OH-MA-HA. WOW

I see many analogies between this and yoga. The ancient people really knew something about energies we forgot nowadays.

Absolute goodness. Immense gratitude for this

Bless you amazing man. My son gave me a Ying Yang stone a few years ago after a holiday with my sister. He had many challenges on this Earth and people treating him unkindly all walks, ages, Oscar was just 16 years old an older soul he took his own life 2 months ago, my daughter and I did not realise how ill he was and he did survive 3 days gave us a chance to cuddle and touch him I know he is free and at peace now. We are going forward as much as we can and I now see him much more deeply than I ever did even though I made many changes in his life after bullying, lack of support etc. Thank you 🙏 I will be looking at this to help me going forward we are Empath’s 🙏❤️🙏

The most amazing explanation ever, thank you for that. So glad I've found it online🙏

I saw this ten years ago, STILL a favorite !

Wow! This has changed my life

One of the best TED videos of all time.

The first time I saw the tai-chi yin-yang symbol, I thought it was two whales chasing one another in a circle. I now and just now only, am starting to see it all. Thank you for this, take your mind to new places, philosophy...

It's great to see the audience engaged!

He just made my day,he is filled with so much positivity and love❤

wow. He put in a lot of profound Chinese philosophy + taichi training and packaged it as a fun exercise.

First time seeing this video. Embrace Tiger, Return to Mountain was the first Tai Chi book I ever bought. After almost 50 years of practice it is still my favorite, a beautiful presentation of its "essence". As a teacher through the 80's, I recommended his book and referred to Tai Chi as "The Dance of Life".

that was simply AMAZING!! in 30 minutes I could understand by feeling it the Tao. Thank you so much and may all humankind growh in Peace and reach Love within

i can't explain how beautiful this feels like, to do the movements of thai and taiji

Joyful.Engaging.Gifted Educator. Pure Love.

Appreciation cannot just described by words 😇. I highly respect this Master. Master of All Masters 💙💙💙

A sweet good energy human being. Thanks for kindness with a smile. If he has a Grand Master Chi blast I would love to feel it because it would be pure joy.

What an inspiring master teacher!

wow! such a great experience watching this vid. God bless the Lecturer.

This is the best video i saw this week and 30 minutes just slipped in a flow

Thank You so much for this video I have found "by accident". This is so good for people that are interested in short time to learn the ESSENCE of TaiJi. Respect to the Master.

Rinchen, Same here, looking for something to do during quarantine. It is what I need, I've been looking for it. Thanks

I have been doing Yoga, Qi Gong and Tao Chi, with a Korean teacher, but unfortunately, his English is very limited. This wonderful video carries a lot of the "meanings and explanations of the hands, body, and even facial expressions". Wonderful! Will save this video and show it with fellow classmates at the session. Thanks for posting. ^~^

Such a wonderful teacher. Thanks

I like the clarification that they don’t use yin AND yang. This makes it easier to realize that things aren’t either good or bad it’s all just one big ball that we gotta roll with

Wonderful. Life force acting and communicating. Thank you

Truly infectious joy! Thank you 🥰👍

Absolutely SPECTACULAR! BRAVO!!!! ❤️

This man is AMAZING!!!

Espectacular maestro Al.

Thank you, I have learnt an important point via his teaching.

Amazing, good, vibrant energy! Yay wow!

Thank you so much sense, please put more about him

Always worth listening to, always with a refreshing perspective.

me encanta. muchas gracias, maestro.

A most excellent explanation and lesson.

Very meaningful and joyful presentation...

Love this! Thank you! xo

Just realized this is filmed in Arkansas! WOO and thank you for the video!

I love this video. Please keep this video in KZread forever. It is a keeper. Thanks.

Wow! I cried and laughed throughout this. Thank you! I feel so at peace now.

Outstanding visual description. Definitely helped me deepen my understanding and practice significantly. Saved to re-watch again (and again....)

He has an ASMR voice😴. I could listen to him for hours

Thank you so much! This video is very useful

OMG! OMG! OMG! OH MY MERCIFUL GOD! When I am a child they teach us these words: 'Your cure is within you, if only you can see And your sickness is from you, if only you can feel You might think that you are a small body, but in fact the great world is hidden inside of you' The person who said these words was the greatest human being ever walked in this planet! He is Imam ali who was living on this earth before approximately 1400 years ago. This person unbelievable incredible the awesomeness and holiness soul in holiness body. I wish I see him to kiss his feet 💙

Saruman the White was too focused on the Intellectual/Cosmic energy. He ignored the people, the Earth. Thus he became Imbalanced. Gandalf the Gray connects with the people of Middle Earth, yet he also had a connection to the Cosmic energy. Gandalf draws his energy from all sources.

There was also an element of one must fall so the other could take his place. As Saruman succumbed to the ancient magics and dark technologies of Mordor, Gandalf plunged into the abyss fighting and vanquishing his own ancient foe from an earlier age and emerging again into the world as Gandalf The White to help shepherd the world from the Third Age to the Fourth and then pass on to Valinor with the Ring Bearers.

Fantastic Teacher!Reminds me of JackienChan!

Fantastic.

My favourite moment was when he said "don't run too fast or your future may not catch up with you". Until we got to "Omaha". Can someone tell me if the strong preference he expresses for leaving the circle open is traditional, cos I've only ever seen it closed.... I like his thinking!

@alexhall6943

... just watched this clip (5 years after you posted your question). I believe he's using 'Zen Circles'. I don't know if these originated in Japan or China but they are an important icon of the Zen (Chan) Buddhism that China spread in Japan. Zen Buddhism is a mixture of Daoism and Buddhism. I'm not clear on precisely how much the Zen circle technically represents the Daoist concept of TaiJi and or how much it represents Daoism's Wuji. I think that on a basic level it represents Wuji but don't quote me on it (the distinctions are apparently oppositional but not solid in certain senses anyway). In any case you can say that Taiji is within Wuji, so probably you can also say that the two classic Taiji fish are usually swimming in a Wuji circle symbol. Here the opened circle is probably inspired or informed by the Zen Circle version. The Yinyang symbol has many variations that have come in and out of fashion over the centuries, having an open circle aspect is pretty cool to me

So great ! Taiji and Qigong are no joke.. if you don't have the right mind you can be calling all kind of energies.. so careful !! That is why he says to do the moves and hopefully your God will be there ... to take care of you! People don't or never reflect on the real meaning of things...

This was filmed at the Hendrix College student center, were I was attending when this was happening. I had just graduated, actually. It disappoints me greatly that I missed such a great demonstration, as I am very much into eastern philosophy, namely the ideas of Taoism and the pursuit of Tao.

I love beautiful energy people 😊

tai chi is amazing. I wish I could learn it

Elegant education

Oscar also desired to do Tai Chi but we couldn’t find a class for children and he didn’t feel comfortable going in with adults. 🙏

Even if you don't close the circles nature's force of gravity will close em for you as can be seen thru the end :)
