Very Useful February 20, 2001
I found this tape (actually there are two volumes in the series) very helpful for punching, kicking, grapping, sparring concepts and groundfighting. It is actually the kickboxing of Tai-chi-Chuan (The Grand Ultimate Martial Art) and is taped as classroom training. The two tape set is loaded with training techniques. It gives a unique glimpse into how internal martial artists train for full contact fighting. Each time I watch this video I learn new things. The first tape also includes a stretching routine which you can use to begin each session of practice.
Great Video! July 21, 2000
This is the first of a two tape set showing how students are trained in the self defense aspect of T'ai-chi. This aspect is rarely shown. The tapes include punching, kicking, grappling, groundfighting and the use of animal styles of T'ai-chi in the fighting. The tapes teach this in a classroom setting. Students are instructed and corrected. I love this tape because it shows how each T'ai-chi principle is involved in the fighting techniques. It is hard for some people to understand how a system so soft and yielding can be turned into a fast, powerful and devastating fighting style. You can practice the exercises from the tape, if you are an individual but it is even better if you have a partner. The use of relaxation, fluidity and of understanding the dynamics of your and the opponent's attention is very unique and I think very important to see in action. This is a unique tape.
From the Teacher April 15, 2000
This video (and volume 2) give the first two years of training of the martial arts aspect of T'ai-chi-Ch'uan (the "Grand Ultimate Martial Art"). Volume 1 includes punching techniques, one and two person punching exercises, "free sparring" with punches, the use of internal energy, ducking and other forms of evading. It also begins to teach types of kicks. Volume 2 teaches more kicking plus grappling and groundfighting and use of animal styles (within T'ai-chi). It shows more sparring, this time with punches and kicks. Volume 1 actually begins with a suggested stretching session to encourage you to stretch before practicing. There is a lot of material in these two videos. It is best to have a partner to practice with.
