- During the period of Coronavirus Pandemic time, more and more people have to stay home, I'd like to make all of my Tai Chi related videos available in public so that we can do Tai Chi exercise together without going out. At the mean time, I'll publish more videos and hope to make this period of time a little bit more interesting and beneficial. Here is the link of the complete All-In-One edition of all my Tai Chi 24 Form related videos.

So thankful for your "Beginner" teachings.
I'm disabled with a broken spine, but not chair bound due to wonders of modern, physical, surgical science.
Now I'm working on balance, strength & reducing bad nerve pain. I believe exercises and discipline such as this will help me much more, than pills & toxins.
Now I just need to practice, practice, practice.
Thank you again. ❤
This is just superb, been searching for "learning powerful methods to build your Chi energy" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Fellmeroni Rudimentary Chi - (just google it ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my buddy got excellent results with it.
I hope you have found this helpful. I also suffer from nerve pain and hip issues and that is how I found this video. I’ve found it really useful ☺️
Hi. Check out QiGong instructor Jeffrey Chand - ThinkVitality on CZcams. Also look into Dr. Lam's Tai Chi for Health series DVD's. He has a couple of seated Tai Chi programs also. There may be someone in your area teaching his Tai Chi for Arthritis course and its well worth looking into, because the forms are modified and much easier to perform and still benefit.
Exact same story here, Mandie. This kind of injury ruins your life, your dreams and leaves you isolated & unhappy.
I've been going through the excruciatingly-long process of weaning off a variety of drugs I was taking for years for the pain. All they did was help for a while, until I needed them just to maintain homeostasis, until they systematically destroyed so many aspects of my health.
Qigong & Yoga have been a huge help for teaching my brain & body to control it's own nervous system again - now I'm moving forward to Tai Chi. The most important thing we can do is keep our bodies moving, stretching, breathing, circulating and aligned with the movement of the mind.
Thank you for sharing this and reminding me that I'm not alone.

The first time I did Tai Chi it immediately helped my anxiety. This has been my meditation in motion, as they call it.
Wow same!
Seems to help my anxiety also
Watching this cause of anxiety as well. Didn't try yet but hoping it'll somewhat help since I'm not really good at doing the regular meditation.
just by doing those steps like shown in the video, will help our anxiety ? how is that even possible
Same!
I’ve been practicing the move at 4:37 but I think it’s a little more advanced than I can manage
😂😂😂
Normally that is only taught in advanced spear or sword form .
I don't think that I can master that one either.
😂
lol
Anyone else watching because they want to learn something new during Quarantine
Same
Yes :)
yea same😂😂
😂😂😂yes
If you use this in real fight yourw going to get beaten up. Your hands are so far away from your head and body you can't get power to the punches, at he same time you can't block punches because your hands are too far away from your face.
Try instead mma, boxing, frestling, but not this beacause this is bullshit.
Very clear and easy to follow, this is part of my new morning and afternoon routine and I am Xanax free after a 22 year doctor prescribed addiction.
Drs love dishing pills out. Good for you Richard, hope you are well
Wow thats incredible! Im suffering from severe anxiety.
@@beesilva9085Get into meditation, tai Chi is good for understanding your body on a deeper level, but meditation is useful for the mind.
If you get proficient enough in meditation you realize everything is meditation.
@@beesilva9085 research vagus nerve with a little search you can do alot yourself
Same here. Six days clean off like four mg klonopin daily with the occasional Xanax but I was not prescribed I was self medicating. Can I ask how you got off Xanax?
4:38 he has gone beyond tai chi
😂
Ultimate Freeze Technique 😂😂
Anyone else here because they spiritually identify with water bending and realise this is the perfect martial arts form for them?
mhm lol
Water bending is actually based on Tai Chi. So, yes. Also quarantine making me want to try something new. 😂
😂😂😂😂
@@bradleyhanson9262 Well yeah. Each of the bending forms is based off of a martial arts form.
I'm watching The Last Air Bender right now 😂😂😂
I’ll beat Katara at her own game.
we we we wa wa wa
LMAO
y u do dis sokka???
@@twilightmoon3782 Excuse me is that Yue? You know.... With that username XDXD
Pardon
Hey, whatever allows me to be calm and wear organic silkies all day -- ahah
😄
Hahaha...Silky...Keep Calm & Fuck Silky
I am most grateful for your clear and pleasant teaching, Peter Chen!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I needed this more than I realized in my tai chi learning as I begin to incorporate movement into my practice. Blessings to you!
I am here because I have osteoarthritis all through my back and was told that doing tai chi can help me from being in pain every single day. I hope it works.
did it help?
@@ashleysdairy I have to get back into it.
@@SpongeBobfan3646 No worries! get back to me if you see any differences I would love to hear your experience with it since i am also dealing with some pain.
Spirit brought me to Tai Chi. I’m thankful for you teachers! What a blessing to be able to learn from all over the world. ❤
Yes watching during quarantine. I need to improve my balance.
I had a stroke 2 yrs ago, they called me the miracle because I had a major stroke and had so much brain damage that the doctors told my family that when i wake up I might not walk talk or speak again but i do and tai chi helped me as my left side works only about 50 percent
How did you learn your tai chi, please?
Your voice and aura makes me feel calm!
Thank you Master Chen.
I will use my time to Lean Tai Chi.
Most for trying to finding myself and make peace with my spirit.
Thank you so much! I now have atrial fibrillation and heart failure and need to exercise without raising the heart rate. This is perfect!! :o)
After searching and compare to other, this video more easier to learn. Thank you Mr Chen for teaching us.
Very thankful for this video. It helped me realise movement. With tai chi I acquired the flow of my body and it opened up many different forms of martial arts for me. Tai chi is an incredible thing!
Thank you so much for these videos! You have given me hope for recovery. Like so many others, I need strength training as well as nerve pain relief. I believe the right kind of exercise is essential!
Thank you for the simple yet effective explanations of these movements and stances. I look forward to watching and learning more.
Thank you Peter chen, by discovering your videos you have opened a new door for me
I've been practicing QiGong for the past year and it's really helped improve my overall health, but I've always wanted to learn Tai Chi, and hope that my familiarity with QiGong will help to make learning Tai Chi a bit easier.
What is QiGong?
This is how the avatar learned waterbending in the 21st century.
Christopher Don Armstrong So the Avatar after Korra?
@@FreakAboutSims3 maybe 2 more avatars after korra.
so the avaters girlfriend knew Tai chi
Just started this after.lots of painkillers/alcohol/back surgery/knee... arthritis gone!!! 42 and never tried before...only weights/cardio some..really cool! Spiritual Warrior!!😁
Very clear instruction. Just enough words to describe the motion! Just like Tai Chi itself.
I struggle with anxiety and panic attacks . This tai chi is relaxing and I want to be able to my my inner peace
I have been doing a stretch similar to this naturally without instruction in order to try to heal a painful foot injury. I will try this way now
Thank you
Just so calming and relaxing to listen to him
Peter you're a wonderful teacher. Thank you
🙂🙏
Your video is extremely helpful for Tai Chi beginners.
Thanks for sharing!
Your posture...movement.....so graceful. Thank you.
Thank you for teaching, I am following your videos because I want to learn and do Tai chi at home by myself. It makes me feel my body better, be balanced and feel peace.
You are a really great teacher!! Thank you soon much for this video 🙂 My doctor wanted me to start doing Tai Chi because I was just diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. So I am starting to change my diet, more walking and starting Tai Chi. Of course drinking more water too.
You got this:)
@@artz50 Thank you 😊 It seems to be going very slow for me, but I am still learning to be very patient with the process and with myself.
Thank you so much for teaching Tai Chi, I’m very excited to finally learn.
This has helped me before I go to my first actual class. I will watch you on the days I don’t have class & do this every day.
Thank you for posting this... I'm new to Tai Chi, and I enjoyed this greatly... I'm 42, and have run six a miles a day since age 16, and performed H.I.I.T., Cardio, Aerobics and Tabata, but as I get older I'm looking to add less intense, and more meditative, teachings and practices to my routine... I'm hoping that Tai Chi will become an extensive part of that routine, and a constant in my life!
How you doing brother? Did you keep with it? Im new starting today!
Thank You for sharing this video. Your explanations are very clear!
You don't need a pandemic to understanding the life giving properties of breathing and balancing as a way to improve our lives. Such is Tai Chi now and forever!
I recently started learning Tai Chi, this video is really helpful. Thank you sir!
Mr. Chen. I have just started this video and I can already say I feel you are a true teacher. So clear and precise and slow (patient) for newbies! I think I will be able to learn this much easier than any other video or class even. Your calmness in delivery makes me feel calm, which offsets my natural impatience. Thank you!

যা হোক তুমি

This is a wonderful lesson. Thank you very much.
You are a great teacher.
Thank you for your generosity! Wishing you the best.
He’s an amazing instructor!!
leave your demons for your self M. much appreciated glad to meet energy in life full respect
Goodness comes your WAY... thanks again
This my first exposure to Tai Chi and also martial arts entirely, thank you for your lessons! 🙏 Going to use this stuff to try and combat potential balance issues from a concerning family history.
4:38..... what move is that? 😂
The gangsta step!
😂
Oh nooo brothers thats no beginner moves. When your opponent be using that you better run , that theres the *MATRIX GLITCH MOVE*
Maaan I am practicing this move for a weeks now! But I think that I am getting hold of this. Just grab electrical cord without any protection. You'll get feeling how to do the move!
He had a malfunction in his system.
Thanks for sharing! Have an awesome day!
I'm a big a white dude and I'm very interested in this. I see its purpose and I think it's important.
Dunno why why you said you were a big white dude but aight
@@tworealms3824 Incase you haven't noticed, this isn't exactly a trend of the white culture. Even the ones that eat healthy and exercise aren't exactly doing this as well. Being big means we tend to have issues with our joints and range of motion when we get older.
@@justinsane3909 I see I guess short Pepole are better
@@tworealms3824 Maybe at tying their shoes…
I am excited about this practice 🙏🏽 thank you
4:40 ultimate form
Thank you this is something that I would really love to learn and practice ❤❤
Great exemplification and details! Wonderful lesson! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this video with the world. This video was the REAL beginning of my life long journey as a Tai Chi Practicioner. I am forever grateful. Namaste
Cucumzebrillion NAMASTE?!?
Thank you so much for sharing with such excellent detail! I'll practice this to improve my balance especially and keep up my flexibility.
This video, calmed me...and I LOVE TAI CHI :D
Thanks so much for sharing. I've just started tai chi videos and find this inspiring. Thank you.
Thank you!!!!!! Your teaching style is sweet.
I was a competitive fighter in sanshou years ago, and of course I did wushu as well, but haven’t done martial arts in many years. Since then, I was hit by a car, became disabled, and then fat and weak. So I thought, I need to do Tai Chi. Of course there are far more bad teachers than good, so I was looking for traditional training, the way I learned Chinese martial arts in the beginning.
Within the first minute, I knew you were the right teacher. This is proper martial arts.
I always think about keeping my head level in any martial arts. If I’m bobbing up and down, I’m doing it wrong.
Thank you for explaining things so clearly. Very helpful video
explanations are so clear and simple !! no water ++++
💕💕💕🙏🏻I’m learning starting today. Thank you for your knowledge
Congratulations. Teacher your videos very well explained.
First time seen tai chi taught by instructor facing forward, Badly injured by accident and tthis is what I wanted. to learn
What happened at 4:48?? Whoever edited this decided to have a little fun with this, I suppose 😅
Oh, dang, I thought that was my computer messing up, LOL!
4:42 lol
@@cswalker21 we we we WA wa wa
I guess after years of practice you can do this.
Thank you for your lesson. Truly I plan to keep practicing and to keep following along with your other videos.
Thank you for these teachings!
This is perfect for learning! Appreciate it!!!
Very nice indeed! Finally a clearer video without making it complicated. If one learns the basics well then they can practice with success. Much appreciated video.
I love pursuing new knowledge and healthy activities alongside
Oh my goodness! Are you the only person that I xan follow these movements with??? I am 66. Thank you so much.
Thank you for my first lesson , 🙏🏽🙏🏽
I’m not very mobile because of a spine injury, but I’m so starting this and I’m going to try and try. 🙏🏻
I’ve been wanting to get back to my form… this looks good! Thank you,also subscribed!
I love tai chi!
In the process of learning and I am anxious to learn. Thank you so much man, means a lot. 👍🏼
Thank you, Mr. Chen! Sincretizing your teachings to my Taekwondo classes. Students are loving it!
I think you mean synchronizing
@@petite_cherie I did mispelled it but i meant *syncretize*, as in combining.
Heheheh
😢got jumped at the car show, now I want to learn how to defend myself😮
THANK YOU!! Very well done.
Lovely explanations for a beginner like me. Thanks.
How wonderful, thank you for sharing!
Thank you for sharing. You are doing a great public service to people, or everyone who not only need exercise, but also to keep people busy and relieve stress and anxiety during this great period of Covid 19 lockdowns and quarantines.
In all seriousness, your outfit looks so comfortable. I'm buying one to make my practice more serious and I have an excuse to wear something so luxurious. Sure I'm in my garage. But I am a silk goddess of grace. Not really I'm clumsy and fell over transitioning steps.
This is a cute comment, that is all.
I love Tai Chi. Very healthy.
thank you for sharing this gift with us. It's priceless.
Upright and relaxed. Thank you
Thank you so much for sharing! extremelly useful and easy to follow!
Thanks for the master work 👍 help me recover some remote memories 😊
This guy is clearly a master of the ornamental martial arts.
Thanks Peter, I start my first class tonight, I'm really looking forward to it. Great starter vid, subscribed 👍🏽
Did you stick with it?
Thank you so much for sharing! I’m starting my first class on the 30th, this was a perfect beginners video! 🥰👍🏽
I used to take Tai Chi in Canada sooo many years ago and I miss it. I regret not going for my black belt at that time
Awesome instruction. Thank you.
I have been watching various teachers teach beginning lessons. I like your method of teaching. I like how you explain and demonstrate. I subscribed.
So impressive. Simple but easy to start
Thanks for the tuition. Great way to relax.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge :-) Best wishes from France.
Good man 😊, these things are good to see in times bad, additionally I support feeling this light, try to posses and Express to others, many people want power but there is equality in it as well.
Thank you for this very clear and understandable video
