"Firstly, while production values could have been a teeny bit higher, the picture quality is great and the instruction is easily some of the best in the world. The other reviewer posted here is in my opinion a moron for having trashed such a great DVD but that is my opinion. True you are not going to learn 24 step Tai Chi routine from this DVD but you will gain great strength, flexibility, and intimate familiarity with most of the very important Tai Chi moves or postures. Think of this DVD as a Tai Chi conditioning DVD especially made as a primer to further Tai Chi development for BEGINNERS. If you are already intermediate perhaps this will be too rudimentary. Instruction this easy, clear, and motivating is rare at any price. Pass it up at your peril. Sifu Chang is phenomenal and a Gold Medalist. His control and flexibility are truly inspirational as is his instruction. Bravo. 5 stars for effectiveness!"

"Sifu David Chang is one of the best teachers I have ever had the pleasure to learn from even if it is only by watching him on a DVD. He is a gifted teacher and truly masterful Tai Chi Chuan master. His flexibility and control are remarkable. Please give him a try. Even for intermediate to advanced practitioners may use this for a great workout of authentic Tai Chi postures and movement. The DVD would have ranked higher if it had had a little more history about Tai Chi and especially Sifu Chang's history and how he got started, his background. All in all a great DVD that keeps giving way past the dollar amount which is paltry compared to the $45.00 dvds I have seen some other teachers' DVD's selling for. Bravo Sifu Chang, Do jie, Do jie! Ho Gong Fu Tai Ji Quan!"
