I found this dvd to be very informative and with over 7 hours of material on two dvds contains a lot of information regarding Tai Chi. The dvds are also filmed live so the infomation is easily undertood with no voice overs.
Both Yang and Chen style Tai Chi are covered with a dvd specifically for each style and there is also a basic Qi Gong style covered.
On both of the dvds, there is a section for basic training which covers the basic hand and feet movements as well as basic footwork for that particular style of Tai Chi. There is then a section for all of the applications for the Tai Chi style which shows Master Wong demonstrating the techniques on a student wearing full body so that the techniques can be performed with proper force.
The dvd then has a section that shows the full form presented at full speed and the form is then split up into sections with step by step instruction for each section to make it easier to learn.
There is also a section on each dvd which takes each of the Tai Chi styles and talks about their use in combat. Master Wong goes through each technique many times to make sure that the information is understood and can easily be followed.
The bonus material on the two dvds contain interviews with a Chinese Master and shows this Master demonstrating several styles.
I found this dvd to be very easy for learning the forms and it contained a lot of information about Tai Chi. The two dvd's could have easily been sold as two separate products so it is good value to learn two Tai Chi forms and all of their applications.
This dvd would be good for a beginner wanting to learn a Tai Chi form or for an experienced practitioner who wants to learn about the applications and the use of the forms in a combat situation.
