Thank you Sifu..Best Demonstration of 8 Brocade Qigong I have seen yet! I feel clear & invigorated afterwards..only thing I would recommend, "I practiced at bedtime one night & was awake with a surge of energy for the night! Best in the day to practice, for me anyhow..Thanks again Sifu🥰💛🙏

Just like the way you make it so exciting

[@fabior2493]

Dear Sifu, I love your version of Ba Dua Jin, you have a perfect rhythm and state of mind. I practice Taiji and Qigong in Italy since 2011 but I never found someone that teaches me this way. Thank you!!!!

[@bkreed27]

I have been doing this series of movements for 2 weeks. Previously I was struggling to get 6 hours of sleep every night. Currently I am sleeping soundly for a bit more than 7 hours and waking feeling refreshed. The only thing I can credit this change to is Ba Duan Jin since nothing else has changed in my daily routine. I'm very impressed with this result! Thank you Sifu!

[@Ed-bj5eq]

I was looking for some physical activity to do at home, now that gyms are closed, and came across your fabulous channel. You are a great master, thank you so much.

[@SenseiEmmett]

This is so convienant to follow along too after online course, anyone thats doing the course on the website with shifu, i recommend saving this video as a reference to follow later, as its straight through and course is broken down and has a lot of explanation and detail. just a suggestion

[@piyushsoni9620]

I was searching from where to start qi gong. The course seems pretty interesting...thank you for sharing. Keep learning 😃

[@SenseiEmmett]

@@piyushsoni9620 keep at it my friend, Shifu is an amazing instructor, and after 7 or 8 months of practising Ba Duan Jin daily, ive found the health improvements are amazing.

[@a.p.5429]

The breath is so important to all we do and has an effect on your mental state. This is a wonderful video for the beginner, which I am. It has really helped me feel better daily.

[@Petruschkahjajah]

I have been doing your 10 minute basic warm up routine and the 8 brocades for 3 weeks every morning and this now, is how I start every day, the world can wait. My daughter practices Kung Fu and gave me this link. My body is responding with energy and focus and joy. Thank you for teaching me Master Shifu.

One year later and I am still joining you every morning Master Shifu. Thank you

[@christinewilliams6286]

Even though Kung Fu is not one of the martial arts I practice. I've come across these breathing technique and movement videos and I love them!! It's so much more fun than yoga. I find the movements you do will help in my martial arts training. Thank you Sir for sharing these 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@KennethBatchelor]

I started practicing Qi Gong, specifically the Eight Brocades, about half a year ago, and I've followed a lot of different videos, but it took me a while to find yours. It has become my daily morning standard. Love the specifics on breathing and tension/release. Thank you!

The happiest man in the world. I love this channel!

[@catherineiliff1985]

Thank you! Most grateful. Have been a student of the eight brocades for decades...doing different routines by different teachers. You have taken the 8 to a new level for me...

[@catherineiliff1985]

Could questions... I tend to close my eyes is this ok... also I try to go slower and if can hear myself breathing, maybe I am breathing to much effort?

[@KUNGFULIFE-shifuyanxin]

Good question. I would suggest to keep you eyes open, otherwise your focus will move to how to balance your body. Going slower is perfectly fine, the key is to have your Qi (speed of breathing) to match the speed of your movement. It is good to hear your self breathing, it meaning you are consciously working on the strength of your breath (Qi). Hope this helps. Keep up with the good work.

[@wendyrual7179]

I am a 67yr old woman and am no where near as fit as you!😂😂. But this is another video which I am going to do daily, after your meditation! Thank you for all the explanations at the end, regarding the breathing & concentration....it really does help! Great camera work Lila! I smile, thinking your cat looks like she/he will be taking the next class! 😘

Thank you so much for this channel. Doing Qigong every morning. Trying to understand the breathing technique to help internally. When breathing in and out, do you hold tight your inside to help energize the organs? Want to understand it fully. See you tomorrow morning, 730. Sharp. Peace and blessing.

[@KUNGFULIFE-shifuyanxin]

Hello Kenya :) regarding the breath, in Ba Duan Jin for my personal opinon most breaths inhale & exhale are Deep Relax and Expand the movement to maximume, excepet the movement on number 7 "Angry Eyes" we need tight up our body muscls. hope this helps :)

[@QiGong-bd9tf]

Thank you for this video. I used to practise martial arts before i started studying and working, its a pity that qi gong was unfortunately not known in my area those days it would have surely helped me ans many others dealing with stress.
