Taiji Ball Qigong, Courses 3 & 4, DVD
Taiji Ball training can strengthen the torso, condition the muscles, and teach the practitioner to use the mind to lead the Qi. In Taijiquan, Taiji Ball training was once a major training tool to enhance Pushing Hands ability, but it is rarely taught in modern times. This multi-language DVD by Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming contains two complete video courses, and builds upon the foundation taught in the Taiji Ball Qigong Courses 1 & 2 DVD.
In Course 3, Dr Yang teaches 16 patterns of Taiji Ball Wrap-Coiling, including vertical and horizontal.
Course 4 focuses on solo and partner applications, which improve coiling and neutralizing taiji skills, and develop listening jing", or sensitivity. Dr. Yang offers detailed instruction as you follow along with the demonstration.
