Unique Qigong for energy and agile steps for better balance
TAI CHI SUN STYLE 73 FORMS
Mr Sun Lu-tang (1861-1932) created this uniquely powerful tai chi style placing great emphasis on Qigong (practice to cultivate internal life energy). It is especially effective to enhance healing and relaxation. It is characterized by agile steps with smooth and flowing movements. Following an introduction to tai chi and the benefits, Dr Lam will teach warm-up exercises and the 73 Forms using proven teaching methods.
Dr Lam will guide you through each movement from different angles - with close-ups, repetitions and illustrations. Each form will be divided into small sections so you can follow him with ease. Throughout the lessons, Dr Lam will explain the tai chi principles and how to use them to improve your tai chi.
At the end of the DVD, Dr Lam demonstrates the entire set with both front and back-on views.

I never get tired of studying this DVD. What appeals the most is that the competition forms have been modified sufficiently to allow all students/participants to have a go at improving their own health and attain a sence of well being, no matter what age or fitness level. As a Tai Chi for Health Instructor/Leader, I have a broad range of students/participants with differing capabilities, health issues and skill levels. Without exception Dr. Paul lam has shown that all movements can be modified.

Following a few video classes years ago is still helping me learn skills to fix nasty scoliosis from sever whiplash.

[@drpaullamtaichiproductions]

Well done Ron, you illustrate the Tai Chi for Health vision so well! we aim to empower people to empower themselves for better health and quality of life!

[@mikeneidlinger8857]

I've been practicing Silat and Escrima since 1993 and Taiji, Bagua and Xingyi since 2008. I like practicing slow twisting and circling steps with blades. It nourishes my brain and I circulate my chi to stay healthy and massage my internal organs to stay soft and limber. The first thing I would teach someone is how to relax and root and circulate Qi. After relaxing, someone can learn basic Gong Fu!

[@MonacoBlast66]

I agree. Chi cultivation is the foundation for everything.

[@ChenStyleJohn]

Sharing your lovely videos online is really very generous. Thanks so much for making this world a better place! :o)

[@tales9master]

I have studied Tai Chi with Dr. Paul Lam and have found better health thru daily practice...I would recommend this to all. It is even great for kids as I have taught my studies to my students too!

[@TheBhannah]

Thank you for these insights … there is something very unique in this Sun style !

[@JE-western-rider]

Hello Dr. Lam. While I have your 73 DVD and am taking lessons from a Master Trainer, I still find myself using KZbin a great deal. The 73 Form is long enough that I still need prompts while performing it. Also my instructor is Master Trainer Mr. Link, and he is a staunch supporter of your Tai Chi for Rehabilitation program. In Dec 2018, I switched to his class for bi-weekly lessons and this has been an incredible journey. Many thanks to both of you.

[@kitsapcanine]

Love this video--so easy to follow!

[@andrewtanthengchye4741]

I enjoy this video as a practical exercise.,

What comes to mind is Isaiah 7:3 "Fullers Field" pertaining to "washing self with 73 finishing forms". Terrill TC!

Hi John Blue your comment was great, i Love China,China is a great Country I am a big fan of Sun Yat Sen the first president of China.

[@drpaullam784]

David this is a question that has a very complex answer, it really depends on many things. You know what it is like being a doctor, we are precise and since every individual is different - a simple answer is often not necesarily the right one. Perhaps a "yes, maybe"?

[@1cOr1e]

Set up your age using your Chi

[@davidalvarado5015]

I learned how to stop some pain with my finger when touching the right part of the body is that part of that chi??

[@drpaullamtaichiproductions]

Hello tai chi qigong, amazon has the latest version of all my dvds, although you can buy it from Australia, go to our website at taichiproductions dot com or google my name. We do have an agent in Singapore our office will connect you if you like.

[@trainertroyyoga]

I'm so excited to learn this form and your passion and detail are amazing. Hopefully for your next DVD you won't use that British voice over as it's so shocking and doesn't fit your energy. Maybe you'll use a voice over artist that actually does tai chi so they are in sync with your energy. Thank you.

[@decoolwise]

I agree entirely with your criticism. But it's an Australian voice, not a British one

[@lydiaolmo424]

I agree.

[@jennifermorgan8348]

It’s certainly better than an American accent

[@Tuberted]

I ordered DVD.

[@drpaullamtaichiproductions]

great enjoy

[@CherisodaFree]

I'm going to buy this doctor Paul xD

[@eanrig]

Dr Lam I have completed but not perfected the 24 forms. Should this be my next dvd "73 forms"? I would like to be able to do the most common tai chi that you see people practicing for health and well being. Also I want to tell you that I have loved starting to learn Tai chi with you. You make learning tai chi so easy for me in my living room.Thank you so much for your hard work for all of us.

[@beastbuilder]

Sifu Lam can one use Sun style Tai Chi for selfdefense or is it more for health and wellbeing

[@mnhlmnhl9175]

Hi Dr Paul, I follow your lesson for several days. This is the style which I am learning at the moment, can I receive your lessons for the Sun Style 73 forms, I can not found them on your website. Is their a possibility that I can stream them. Looking forward to hear from you, regards Marleen from Belgium

[@irenechai2731]

R. ,##$:!

[@sch924]

Beautiful form. Such a shame combat applications are not emphasized or explained. Sun Lu Tang invented this style by incorporating Baguazhang and Xingyiquan hence the back steps.

[@JoshuaTeas]

One of the reasons my dad was able to follow through with learning this exercise is because the people are older and larger. SeiKawaii is nothing but a troll.

[@mr31337]

Is this style for actual fighting or just a cultural dance?

[@drpaullam784]

Great video! Too bad there are no subtitles labeling each pose.

[@drpaullamtaichiproductions]

The full instructional DVD or online lessons have subtitles for all pose, also in this free first lessons too.

[@tonyrodriguez2524]

@@drpaullamtaichiproductions I have the DVD. The demonstration part doesn't.

[@drpaullamtaichiproductions]

@@tonyrodriguez2524 great to know you are reading this and working with my DVD. On teaching of each movement, the names are there at the beginning. We did not keep it there for too long, nor put it at demonstration to avoid cluster the screen. We worked extremely hard with our studio and participants to balance how much to put in and keeping the screen clean and easier to follow. There are so many ways to present an instructional DVD, trust me, that is why we spent around a year to construct a program and long time to edit the DVDs.

I bought the DVD Sun Style Tai Chi 73 Forms and I found it very disappointing. It does not follow the same style of teaching as in the introductory video where Dr Lam is wearing his blue teeshirt and talking though and explaining the moves. I had previously bought and worked through the arthritis video and I found this very well presented and enjoyable to use. The Sun Style video is quite different in presentation and for me, nowhere near as good. I would very much like to see the full form presented in the manner shown in the youtube introductory video. I feel it is a bit misleading that the DVD is so different is so different in style to that shown in the introductory video above.

[@Ondesdevie]

Thanks for your feedback, I will definitely get the arthritis video.

[@Ondesdevie]

Curious to see his reply. Nice of you to inquire. Peace

[@Mjolimer]

***** Hey yes that's the one I have.. I bought it through amazon about 3 or 4 weeks ago...I'm so pleased there is a different version in your new style and I will get that .. probably from your website to make sure it is the right one!..

[@Mjolimer]

John Colom-Moreno Just checked it out.. shipping to UK is $18 dollars! Is it not possible to get this via digital download?

[@Mjolimer]

John Colom-Moreno I just checked back and it was not Amazon that I got it from. it was from ebay.. www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1313&_nkw=paul+lam&_sacat=0&_from=R40 Clearly old stock and amazon don't have the new version which has Dr Lam in a slightly different pose on the front cover.. I think the new one is 2011.. I'm sure I will find it somehow. (hopefully without importing from Australia!) - all good for me.. best news is that it is there .. somewhere .. :)

[@SeiKawaii]

XD

[@julie-annevincent4024]

Chris Redfield I love Paul's style of tai chai as I am a learner! So calm and addictive! However on the DVDs there is an overview of americanised male voice that is loud and harsh and definitely puts me out of the mood immediately. He continually says...follow dr. Lum...as if I wasn't. For my sake please get rid of this voice and just leave it up to dr. Luk!

[@SeiKawaii]

LOOK OUT FOR DR LAM IN THE PARK.....HE LIKES THEM FAT....AS YOU CAN SEE
