Dear Ms.Chao, Just watching you move lowers my blood pressure and anxiety level. I am 71 years old (born in The Year Of The Water Dragon), and I had total hip and knee replacement surgery last year. After the hip I took my first Tai Chi class. It was wonderful. Afterwards I started riding my bicycle again after many years. Other than my joints, I am unusually healthy for my age. I even rode 100 miles in one day. In the late summer I had the knee replaced, and I have just registered for another Tai Chi class. I am studying Gigong and preparing for a very active spring and summer. Thank you so much for your videos. The backgrounds are breathtaking, and your grace and serenity are an inspiration! All the best to you. Be well and Prosper!

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

[@nannettejalal]

Thank youuuuu so much for sharing this movement, my favorite one. How beautiful. I'm learning from you. Please do more tai chi qi gong videos. Mostly for beginners, would you please sometimes put the instructions? Gratitude 🪷🪷🪷

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

Thank you for commenting! Crane Walk is one of my favorites too. I will certainly make more videos for beginners and with instructions 😊🙏

[@frederickg.6155]

Just beautiful Vivian. I have never seen White Crain Kung Fu movements done in Tai Chi form just hard style.

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

Certainly! The Soft White Crane Qigong is truly captivating! For a deeper understanding of both Soft White Crane and Hard White Crane, delve into the comprehensive books authored by my shifu, Dr. Yang Jwing-Ming. My own crane lineage traces back directly to his teachings, cultivated through dedicated training in the mountains, spanning an entire school year. All credit goes to him with deep gratitude.

Que harmonia corporal Movimentos perfeitos

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

Thank you 🙏

[@mariskavh8724]

It looks like magic, you're so graceful. I lie down for almost 20 years and really want to start, so looked up some video's because i don't know where to start. As a child i always did kung-fu with my father, but sadly he is gone now for over 30 years. All the dokters here in Europe say i have to lie down but i feel like i want to move again... it will be very hard in the beginnin...i broke all the tailbones, there are at a wrong place but i can still walk a bit, sometimes a few hours. So i hope to start with tai-chi. It was a lifelong dream to do with the swords. Blessings 🙏🪷

[@mariskavh8724]

Oh, i see qigong here...what is the difference between the two please 🙏

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

In your journey to recovery, remember that each step forward is a testament to your strength and resilience. Consider exploring the gentle practice of Qigong, which could aid in your recovery journey with its healing movements and calming energy. You've got this! Now, the difference between Tai Chi and Qigong lies primarily in their focus and approach. Tai Chi is a martial art form that involves a series of movements or postures, often practiced for self-defense, balance, and overall physical well-being. On the other hand, Qigong focuses on cultivating and balancing one's internal energy through slow, deliberate movements, meditation, and controlled breathing exercises. While both prioritize holistic well-being, Qigong places a particular emphasis on cultivating and harmonizing the body's energy flow for health and vitality.

[@mariskavh8724]

@VivienChaoTaichiQigong Thank you very much for your reply and teachings... i take it to heart and go for the qigong then firstly. I try doing some, and some days i can do it a bit for 2 or 3 days, and then the next few days my body wants to, but it is hard to get started.... maybe i need to listen to the body, and time will get better? Thank you so much to enlighten me. I wish you much success and blessings 🙏🌸

Congratulations master! Great Qigong Crane form! Now I'm your follower!

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

Thank you so much for your kind comments! It means so much from a fellow practitioner of this art form. 🙏😊

[@renzinobiotti3076]

L inizio dell esercizio è pazzesco , si vede chiaramente la respirazione inversa o taoista ! Non ho parole, meraviglia !

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

😊🙏! Trust your body's instincts to lead you. For a deeper exploration of Taoist versus Buddhist breathing techniques, consider delving into Dr. Yang, Jwing Ming's Qigong books-they offer invaluable insights and guidance.😊🙏

[@renzinobiotti3076]

Ok , sarà fatto !

[@aylabasriler7875]

[@giorgiopani4419]

Il vento era forte. Un tale vento avrebbe fatto desistete molti, esso influenza la respirazione la piccola e grande circolazione, con conseguente dispersione. Ma i tuoi movimenti Vivien, i tempi di esecuzione la fluidità dimostrano che sei riuscita ad addensare l aurea a protezione. Una tale densità energetica è solo x persone con grande estensione. Mi inchino con rispetto , grazie.

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

Thanks, and yes, the wind was too strong during most of the practice. However, I was able to experience the wind like a crane might.😊

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

I guess, just move? 😁👍🙏

[@rickjulius6712]

My God, are you beautiful! I would love to know the names of these movements. A few I like to name for myself. It is no wonder your health in China is superior to ours with this kind of graceful, energizing mediational workout. I could see so clearly your energy, balance and peace of mind. O! How we long for that in America.

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

Thank you! By living simply and prioritizing well-being, you invest in a healthier and brighter tomorrow. Remember to nourish your body with good food, move regularly, and get enough sleep. Additionally, prioritize activities that bring you peace and avoid those that drain your energy. These are all excellent habits to cultivate!

[@malgosiaarcher]

Hello amazing Vivian. Is it possible to get a written instruction to follow the movements? Some shortcuts to help memorize the flow?

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

It was a spontaneous flow so there is no specific sequence to follow. 😊 I am glad you like it though! Isn’t it freeing when memorization is not required? 😄👏

[@paulosimoes4462]

Vivian, could you post more videos with White Crane Soft Qi Gong?

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

The order is taken, the universe will deliver. 😆

[@JoeBanjo88]

Very beautiful, Sifu Chao! Are you directing the Qi flow or do the movements take care of that? May I ask what part of the world you reside? Love Qi to you..............

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

Thank you! 1. The movements will guide the Qi flow. 2. North America 3. Sending good Qi your way too

[@MarileneSevero-rc4vs]

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

[@rickjulius6712]

I must ask you Viven, besides this building up a great amount of Qi. Does it not also develop Jing?

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

The concept of Jing in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is generally understood as our innate life essence, inherited from our parents and determined at conception. It's considered a finite resource that naturally depletes over time, contributing to the aging process. Therefore, unlike Qi, which can be cultivated and replenished through various practices like Qigong or acupressure, Jing cannot be directly increased.

[@angyeewong6776]

請教師傅:這套功法名稱是什麼？謝謝!

[@VivienChaoTaichiQigong]

沒有名字，我的老師師承白鶴一派，這些是平時我們的築基練習，我將動作串連在一起，方便自己可以一氣呵成的練習而已。😊🙏
