Tai Cheng! All yours for only $19.95!!!

Postby grzegorz on Sun May 20, 2018 2:41 pm

Flipping through the channels, I saw this.

I suppose it shows that there are a lot of people out there who still want to learn taiji.

Hopefully after making their purchase will seek out an actual instructor.

This is the 1st clip that I have seen "leg cross" warm up is used. It's a such important warm up that most of the Taiji teaching clips just don't have it.

Hello, I'd like to maintain a 'cool post count' of 108 posts. This particular post has gone beyond that number and has therefore expired.

I'm sorry if you were looking for some old information but I'll do my best to answer you if you send me a DM with a question in it.

Either that or looking for another way to keep eating tons of crap while doing as little as possible to get the "beach body". Bad news for the latter..

No surprise, it's an element of Shuaijiao not Taijiquan. Why should those aforementioned clips have it?

I agree that it is obvious that the instructor has studied a lot of Chinese martial arts.

Like our politicians who say vote for me and you will win so much you will get tired of winning. The idea behind good marketing is the same; buy this, everything else in your life will be so much better and you won't even have to do much of anything.

I caught it on a hotel tv when I was traveling. Dick Van Dyke was hosting the infomercial hawking it. I've checked out some pirated bits, it seems like some sound information.

Funny thing is that all the permutation as Tai Cheng, Naked Tai Chi, Tai CHi for Colds, etc seems to be the norm. The other "realer tai chi seems to be on the fringes ???
At least, I found out that Dick van Dyke is alive..........
