A Kung-Fu/Wushu Master introduces beginners to Tai Chi. The 24-minute video begins with a seven-minute warmup to prepare joints for movement. It ends with a three-minute cool down. The practice requires balance, with several movements that require standing on one leg.
The master incorporates Mandarin names for positions and encourages mindfulness to assist with balance. The exercise is a form of movement meditation.
The instructor prepares viewers for the movements that include the bow stance, horse stance and empty stance. No equipment is required. Note the instructor is wearing loose clothing and shoes.
