Mr. Jake Mace, you might never read this, but I just wanted to share with you that I have been using this video in my classroom every Friday for the past 5 years. The kids love their "Tai Chi Friday" and look forward to it the whole week. It became a tradition in my classes. We kept the tradition even now during our online learning. Kids tell me, sometimes this is the only time they get out of the computer and move.
love this
Well done brother!
Awesome !
“You might never read this” only people who read this will read this🤦♂️
@@TheTruth-13 meant for the creator, and why are you attempting to flame a teacher that responded to a tai chi video 9 months ago?
I have been fighting cancer for eighteen years and this is helping me to get some of my energy and balance back.
GOD BLESS YOU !
Are you still learning from em? If so stop for your health sake
Why should he stop with sth that gives him energy and strength?!
i hope you get better!
Good luck with the battle, you are a beautifull spirit, never forget. :)

Wosp Did you get lost buddy?
thank you!! so muchh!
Thank you 😌
@Wosp 🤔 fight???
@Wosp this is for relaxation and body movement training also for lessening stress and depression no one ever said this was going to help you beat someone up 😈🔫😂
I started Tai Chi about a month ago as I had become very clumsy. My balance is already improved and I am thirsty to learn more. I will be 74 in July and I plan on being better balanced by then than I was ten years ago.
bravo complimenti ! io ho 73 anni e voglio cominciare adesso
That's awesome. I'm introducing Tai Chi to my parents.
Turns out he never made it to 74
@@Kevo7979 yes there a lot benefits and the good thing about Tai chi is that anyone can do it. www.fromtheguts.com/wellness/4-things-you-need-to-know-about-tai-chi/
Well done! 💪🏻
I'm a diabetic with a multitude of health problems, including balance/vertigo, severe obesity, back spasms and swollen, inflamed knees. These beginners exercises are just enough to keep me fit, without exacerbating my preexisting conditions. So glad I found this video. Thanks!
I love this. Beautiful music, calming water and the Instructor just gets into it. No annoying intros or exaggerated movements.
I’ve watched this video for five years and it’s the only exercise that really helps my neck and upper back pain. Thank you so much!❤
Hi Jake, I just wanted to thank you for this fantastic video and instructions! Me and my colleague are practicing this Tai Chi movements during our break at work. Every time I practice them I feel unstressed and happy. Thank you again for making it possible. You make a difference!
Thank you so much for these beautifully presented lessons. The way you "dance" the postures and movements--just kind of catches me up into them very naturally and simply. I feel wonderful after doing just a few. I see how your whole body moves through them, as though every part of the body is aware, all moving as one.
How you have conveyed that in a video is lovely--uncluttered, beautiful background; good lighting; appropriate music that does not distract but blends simply; your clothing does not obscure the movements; your concentration and centeredness comes through. You teach much, in a little. No unnecessary anything in the picture. Looks like I will be dancing with you for some time to come. I will check out your other videos, as well. Thank you for this gift. --Leila
Thank you sir!
You inspired me to do Tai Chi every morning.
You feel awake, strong, healthy and ready to start the day! :)
This is great! I am introducing my seniors to the postures. The breathing and meditation are wonderful. I have had nothing but positive feedback and they are begging for more. Thank you for sharing this.
I love this. This is perfect for breathing and meditation. This really helps me calm down from stress and helps with depression. I appreciate all of your videos. And I enjoy watching them
Dear Jake Mace, thank you for your generosity by sharing this video with us for free. As I am currently unwell, these exercises can help me warm up in the mornings and wind down in the evenings.
I appreciate your kindness. Have a great day.
Arthur Tan I hope you are feeling better
why are you unwell? I hope you feel better man. Wish you the best!
I've probably watched this video 40 times. I have a morning tai chi habit now. I've actually gotten to a point where I look forward to my tai chi in the mornings after my workouts, where at first it was a challenge to be consistent. Super grateful for this video!
This was wonderful! Excited to try this daily, thank you!
I've been using it with my primary school classess for a few years now. All the children feel better afterwards and this year we're performing it on stage as part of our Christmas performance. Thank you!
First time I tried totally enjoyed found myself laughing and there throughout you make it look so easy🤗😆
Thanks so much for this video Jake. I have now been doing these moves for around a month & feel far more relaxed & better in my self.
This is so calm, peaceful, and relaxing. I love it!
Hey Jake! I started doing tai chi more than 2 years ago ... this is the first video I used. And I've checked out a lot more of your videos. I'm still doing it. It's good for my body ... and my mind ... especially these days ... I go out early and do 20 minutes every day outside (away away from everybody). Thanks!
I've done this just once with my mother via dvd, and am now researching and looking into trying it regularly. With lower back problems, what attracts me is the regular slow, controlled movement and gracefulness. I used to ballroom dance and loved it. The smoother the dance the more I liked it and music can make or break my day, so I appreciated the music choice in this video. Well done video. Thank you for posting.
Это не ТАЙЧИ,а наверно,марлезонский балет.Но главно,что вам это нравится.
I loved all of them this 8s my first time and all the posters are really calming
I love the fluidity and intimate feel of these movements and postures. It’s been many years since I’ve done them. Watching you brought the movements rights back to me... thank you for your instruction and inspiration
Lovely, but as a beginner, I would love verbal instructions, but I understand the benefit of not having sound. Jake moves so beautifully, and I can feel the energy moving around as I watch him
Seems helpfull for people with stress and anxiety (y) :)
I am so grateful for this wonderful tai chi for beginners. I can't get to a lot of the clases at my Y and I feel so lucky to be able to do this at home with Jake. Thank you so much, Jake!

Taichi Master Thanks Taichi Master!
+Taichi Master grasshopper???
+Taichi Master and you refer to yourself as a master? One of the first tenants of Taoism is to be free of ego, apparently you missed that one? Many styles of Tai Chi? Actually there are not that many, what there are though are many people like this fake selling stuff to people that IS NOT Taiji Chuan. If you ever get to Maryland look me up and you can come to my school and I will teach you what REAL Tai Chi looks like.
+Taichi Master you still have no clue to the history of Tai Chi do you Mr. Master. There were five original styles, Yang & Chen being the most dominant, with Wu, Sun & Woo following. So if you can count the 5 ORIGINAL styles then all of these other styles that posers like you support are not Taiji Chuan are they? These other forms that you seem to be confused about are actually Qigong. Nice try but for a so called Master I would have expected more.
What does number 7 for?
Thank you Jake. I feel calm and energetic without jumping around!
I'm a beginner and found your training videos a good place to start. Thanks
thank you so much for this i have arthiritus and all this has helped me emensely no fancy moves just simple easy to follow and again thank you so much for puting this on
There are 3 Songs in this Tai Chi Lesson! Which one do you like the most #1, #2, or #3? Let me know below! :)
#2 is softer. easier to focus on movements and breathing.
Akeshia Singleton I agree! I loved the 2nd song best!
The 2nd song is nice for calmness, but I connect the most with the 3rd song and look forward to when it begins, I mentally perk up a bit.
I really like all 3. who are they by?
love how you demonstrated MULTIPLE times before demonstrating the next movement. makes learning easier
Thank you Jake, for taking the time to make these videos. They really help.
After decades of Taekwondo I have recently started studying Tai Chi low impact and mental meditation thanks for the awesome videos.....
I am a Senior with arthritis. This video has helped me become so much more flexible, thus in so much less pain. Thank you!
Me too

You have 2 believe in the art and yourself. Without that u well be defeated. I twisted my leg in 2016 to the point 2 wear i could not feel my knee for a couple days of it wasn't for this video i commented to im sure I would of been in worse shape.
Trying to get my girlfriend to start doing some of this because it's so amazingly relaxing and has improved my life so much since coming home....Thanks for the solid video! This is perfect for beginners. I'm not a beginner, but im not an expert, this is great for even me. Just to be able to watch someone who knows what they're doing and has the physicality to pull it off. Subb'd, liked, etc.
Thanks Joe!
Joe Cannabyte b be
"has the physicality to pull it off"
This is not gymnastics. You don't need "physicality" to do taichi. Anyone can do it, if done properly.
I saw your previous video on tai chi chuan and did it before school and felt soo energetic and relaxed
Using this as inspiration for our XXL Christmas Zen Special tomorrow, thank you!
i have been longing to start thai chi for so long, but unable to attend classes, thank you for this video, def going to give it a try

Kung Fu & Tai Chi Center w/ Jake Mace you suck
HenryVlogs gandster - You know, if you practiced Tai Chi, you might find enough inner peace not to feel it necessary to spew needless, unproductive negativity.
yes, ma'm. someone gets it
I like how focused yet calm you look! Tai Chi is good when your have a busy 'overloaded' mind and find it hard to switch off. The movements require your full attention, otherwise you get it wrong yet it so gentle and flowing that you forget about everything else. My favourites are Zen Walking and 24 forms Yang style.
Thank you so much for your lesson. I am recovering from an arm injury where I am not supposed to weight bear but I should move it. This is lovely for peace of mind and fluidity of movement again in my life.
This is great, I am a complete novice, only vaguely attempted before but I'm trying to make it a part of my daily routine now do it when I wake up and when I go to sleep it's really relaxing.
Are you still doing it ?
These are beautiful postures; and great for someone who has had neck and back injuries; I will keep practicing them. Thank you so much for sharing. Namaste.

+TriggAndSides go to a monk and ask him to teach you, if you want to learn it learn it from someone who can do it
Thanks Jake. I’m in virus lock down and figured a good time to refresh my failing memory on all the moves I once knew. You do it with tremendous grace and excellence.. Ill be watching you often. I’m Roly just only 72..
this is so awesome . I just started doing this after my jog/workout and instead of feeling tired and out of breath I feel calm and relaxed.
Thank you so much for your wonderful tutorial! I am a 24-year-old man who unfortunately has lower back problems and pain and I tremendously needed this! Keep up the good work, much health, many blessings, and peace and harmony along with your close/dear ones! Namaste! :)
Thank you for this. I suffered a severe concussion when hit by a car while cycling in January. This video helped me focus every day even when I could barely recall anything other than "breathe in, breathe out". With deepest gratitude.

Which Posture or Move is your Favorite?
+Kung Fu & Tai Chi Center w/ Jake Mace They're all great and I seem to find a connection with mental and emotional health with all of them but number 9 brings the feeling of going back into the flow of the Universe, if that makes sense?
I'm rocking with the last "reel the silk" makes me feel like I'm in motion with the world
Nice!
Jesse-Jane Watch my channel for Jesse-Jane
i like all the moves for the beginners.i it makes me more relax and mentally alert. i think i subsequently loosing my weight.
I've been scouring around various you tube clips for the last 2 hours. A lot to see and I was starting to feel this might be too complicated after all. Most of the video clips were hard to follow and stay focused but Jake's movement in these 10 posture was so easy to follow, it was crisp and clean. I'm motivated again to pursue this.
I was recently diagnosed with a partially paralyzed diaphragm.
Then I found your channel Jake- and it is getting me through it.
Gentle, focused movement - deep breathing.
Great stuff. Thanks- I watch and practice along side 2x a day. Ready to move to the next level!
This is so great! Thank you for sharing! I like that you don't use words (much). I've seen other vids where you do. I like it!
thank you.. i'm new at learning tai chi...i need something to clear up my mind and this one is very good for some alone/peace time.. thank.you.!! :)

Awesome! I been thinking of starting Tai Chi for some time now. When I searched for it just now, your video popped up. Getting relaxed just by watching and listening to the music. It’s beautiful! I’m going to start tomorrow. Thank you so much for sharing this video!🙏🏼✨🙏🏼
I'm very excited to get started with this!

Do not order... this guy is a scam.
***** I think he should stop doing videos.
sicksidemadness
+sicksidemadness Evidence please, or shut up.
theshaw2000 evidence is in the video itself. Just look at 1:15 when he pushes. The arched back is a clear lack of understanding of the art... closed mingmen as some would say. This would be just the first point to start with, he fails in a basic of the basics but proclaims himself as a teacher (if not master).
Oh, and on the other hand, learn to ask for evidences politely.
This is so beautiful to watch and perform. It is my first introduction to tai chi. I suffer from arthritis and This video has opened up a new window for my fitness and pain management regime. 🙏🙏🙏
I discovered this video as I started Tai chi chuan a few months ago. I like very much the calming effect on the mind as we keep practising. The beauty of the movements as a dance although it is a martial art. Very peaceful the garden in the back. Keep watching it often. The music is great too.
Thank you! You move beautifully :)
Hmmm i gues your eyes just watch 1 thing lol
I love this guy,he is so smooth
In his movements ,plus u can see
His breathing, would like to see him in shorts, so I can better understand his leg movements and
What muscles he working,all and
All the best to chi guy out there
*it's my first tai chi video ever and m gonna try this! It looks super calming as if you're throwing all the negative motions away....*
SO NICE...smooth, flowing - great energy. I feel it. Thanks.
you are the best guy i ever saw on youtube u helped me even too much i lovu u
I have been wanting to learn Tai Chi, but I blew it off: until I found this video. I think I might actually be doing this right since his video is slow and methodical, and I understand the movements. Thank you Mr . Mace!
I can follow along as a senior citizen. The moves are the exact pace for me. Thank you very much. .
Loved this video. Extremely clear and the movements shown by the instructor were easy to follow and quite beautiful in their fluidity.
When I do these movements, early in the day, I feel a difference.
which is...

That's great! Keep it up!
Anibal Jesus Delgadillo like gay 😂😂
It's a good introduction for beginners, although I have the following suggestions that hopefully might be of help:
In general, the width of stance doesn't need to be so wide, most Tai Chi teachers advocate a shoulder width stance (i.e. distance between the shoulder joints themselves). This encourages more "sinking of the weight" rather that tensing of thigh muscles.
Posture 3: the wave flow movement is good, but the rear leg knee alignment could result in knee damage over time. The hip, knee and ankle joints should be aligned to avoid knee joint twisting. The front leg knee is also bending too far, this again can put excessive strain on knee joint. The emphasis should be on sinking the weight through the hips to the feet, rather than flexing legs too much and overloading the knees.
Posture 6: bend of elbow is too sharp, the arms should keep a rounded feel and less angular. This softens the posture, allows deeper relaxation and therefore increased blood flow.
It's nice that you're introducing Tai Chi to your Kung Fu followers though, but having practised both for over 10 years of each I can say that at first coming from Kung Fu to Tai Chi there is a tendency for more extended postures, lower stances and more "shape". However, after several years of undoing/unlearning that tendency I started to soften and deepen the relaxation within the postures. The sooner you get away from too much external expression and move toward internal feeling and connecting with the ground the better. It takes a lot of daily practice over many years to begin releasing body tension, often deeper and more subtle than we first think. It's this internal work that characterises Tai Chi and gives it the tremendous health benefits to the practitioner. Obviously, excellent Kung Fu can also provide considerable health benefits to the practitioner who achieves good overall balance between the soft and hard nature of their particular style.
Omg you should make your own
Miriam Quintanilla hi Miriam, thank you for your comment. I think Jake makes very professional videos and he is obviously very passionate about martial arts and fitness. Videos can help with getting some basic ideas, and also make you aware of other approaches etc. However, in my opinion there is really no substitute for learning directly from a very experienced and knowledgeable Tai Chi teacher and developing the practice with other students as well as your own daily solo practice. There is a tremendous amount you can do on your own once you have a good grasp of the fundamental principles and the form postures and transitions are of a sufficiently acceptable level. it's not just learning a choreography or a different type of exercise. Tai Chi is a deeply transformative practice that you discover slowly over a long time, there is really no end to it. Of course, not everyone will want to go into it so much. Not everyone can dedicate the time to really discover the essence of this wonderful art. I only really scratch the surface, but it helps me tremendously. Occasionally, but rarely, I have experienced some of the true wonders of Tai Chi, and it is that experience that inspires me to continue practising and look to improve despite my failings.
My advice would always be to find a good teacher and invest some time and a bit of money in learning the principles and foundations of good Tai Chi form (solo practice) together with some two person energy, sensitivity exercises via gentle and respectful push hands practice. The trick is finding a good teacher and school that suits your particular needs. I have been lucky in my life to have had been taught for about 8 years by one exceptional Tai Chi teacher, although I did learn a bit from others it wasn't until I was introduced to a particular school in London in around 1988 that I really started to learn about the art.
A little over 30 years later I am still learning, although to my own detriment I haven't been consistent in my practice during all that time. So, I still consider myself a beginner and I once again find myself in need of a good teacher to help me progress and develop my Tai Chi to a higher level, which for me is primarily about health. In the meantime I read some classic Tai Chi books, practice daily and help show the basics to a couple of friends who want to learn or improve their Tai Chi but have less experience than me. Having said that, we are all learning together. I also learn from them.
I'm hoping to get together with a very experienced Tai Chi teacher in the UK, who I met at another Tai Chi school about 26 years ago, once the current travel restrictions are lifted etc. I currently live in Madrid and practise with different people and teachers in park groups. This has been good to try different styles and experience different methods of practice.
I hope my reply has been of some help and I wish you joy and success on your path towards discovering more about Tai Chi. Kind regards, Mark
Thanks so much Mark👍🙏
Mark Donovan What books would you recommend to a beginner?
@@aliciamalouff3486 hi Alicia, I think books can help with gaining some insights into Tai Chi, but not to start learning as a beginner. There are some good CZcams channels for beginners, which you could supplement with reading a little bit.
It depends on why you want to learn Tai Chi and whether you have any preferences of style.
That said, you could start to learn some basic principles and practise some fundamental exercises from a book called "The essential movements of Tai Chi" by John Kotsias. It's very good for beginners and improvers alike, but it doesn't teach you a Tai Chi form. However, it will give you a solid foundation to prepare to learn a form, ideally from a teacher, but possibly on CZcams.
My personal preference is the Cheng Man Ch'ing form, but that's only because it's the one I have most experience in practising. I think it's an excellent form to learn the principles. There are other forms and styles that can be equally beneficial.
If you would like to try and learn the Cheng Man Ching (sometimes written as Zheng Manqing, CMC or ZMQ), then there are some excellent beginners' videos on the channel Innercourttaiji.
For a more general introduction to Taiji, I can also recommend the level 1 workout video on the website sinclairinternalarts.com which you can also find here on CZcams.
(PS. I hope Jake doesn't mind me recommending these here)
So refreshing and energising. Must take these healing processes very seriously. Awesome.
Wow!! Thanks for sharing, this one definitely goes into favorites.
i used to get angry about all the negative comments about these vids from people who can't back up their accusations - so many fingers pointed from behind a veil of anonymity; then i realized these people only HELP, as there cannot BE positive energy withOUT negative energy.. ie: if it weren't for idiots, geniuses wouldn't have an advantage - and i'm pretty sure the genius has a kung fu school and business teaching Tai Chi... thanks for turning my frustration into a smile. Kudos, Jake.
Marc Heard ironically this comment has negative energy ;)
Marc Heard yes, it is infuriating to see those people, but the best thing to do (in my opinion and experience) is to leave it be, the leave when they don’t get attention
I know this comment is old but i really want to learn Kung fu but im not in a financial position to train with a Sifu; so are you saying this guy isnt reliable or he is? Cause ive been seeing a lottt of negative feedback.
Well said! Indeed.
@@leonardoalexander9335 sir I can tell you this; I most certainly would not fight him even though he would probably help you with the bleeding after.
cool thanks for keeping it consistent and skipping out blah blah blah and trying to overexplain... your cool
Ran across you on you tube. I've enjoyed your videos. I look forward to watching more of your videos, improving my Tia Chi. I like the meditative aspects of your videos and look forward to more of this as well. Thanks Jake.
Love your instruction. All over improvement in well being. Mt tired achy feet feel like they are cushioned in the best shoe ever and yet its the same old shoes. Best is my soul is more connected to positive energy. Thank you. I am going to keep on with your videos and share your work
I feel you need to put more description in for the beginners. Knowing when to breathe is great and all, but knowing where and how to properly position your body seems a bit more important. I prefer to watch a video and be able to do the movements along with them the first time around, not intensely watching it to make sure I'm not messing up my stance while trying to have a calming workout.
Loving your videos Jake and they definitely help. Xie Xie Sifu.

Thank for sharing this Vedic for free mr jake Mace sir it's a good execise for me to strengthen my body every morning, more power and god bless
I'm enjoying learning Tai Chi. Thanks for the videos, keeps me moving and interested in working out each day. Many Thanks Jake.
I am sure that my comment will be lost or overtrolled or I will not recieve an answer, but I try. Nice work, Jake! You are doing excellent job! It is very to see that You are advanced Master. Indeed Tai Chi is not only about the movements and breathing, but pure meditation in motion. Keep doing what You are doing. Haters are going to hate. Don't pay attention to them, they don't deserve it. Cheers!
Yevgen Levdansky here I will reply your welcome
Amazing
the Thing is that he has no clue about tai chi... that has nothing to do with hate... it's just shameful. he is doing all the mistakes you would learn to avoid in the your first year of practice. to anybody, Even a beginner of tai chi it very very very very clear that this man has no idea what he is doing. it doesn't give me a feelings of hate, but I simply feel sorry for everybody involved in this
Rums Bums Can you tell me what is it that he's doing wrong? I am interested in finding out.
Aamna Here honestly... the list is long... in the first movement he is bending his wrist to much, which causes a closing, or energetic blockage. it's a fundamental rule not to do that and it indicates stiffness and overall tension in the body... I'm not going to watch this again but, to give you some background information... withing preparatory exercises of any tai chi style you'll come across the term "song" embedded in evercises to release the unnecessary tension. if this is not given you are violating fundamental rules which have to followed in order for your tai chi to unfold the deeper aspects of it's beauty. This guy in the video obviously didn't get through basic training.
in other videos you'll see that he closes his "Ming men" , the so called gate of life, a habit which is supposed to be eradicated by standing practices for BEGINNERS, by arching his lower back. another thing is that a lot of the time his moment is internally not generated by the center, which again is something that a proper tai chi teacher would show you before you do fancy forms. there is also video where he demonstrates some qi gong moment in way that makes it obvious that he never received fundamental yang style tai chi training, and still, he selling dvd's on that. I could go on and on and that's the reason why people who are actually familiar with the art get upset.
of course he seems nice and all, physically fit, with a nice garden but the vareity of things he claims to be able to teach is simply ridiculous... just go through the comments and you'll see that even people who just picked up tai chi are wondering.Anyway...
have a lovely day!

Thank you dear Jake for your generosity and time. This video has assisted me to get going in making Thai Chi a daily practice,
Water bending anyone?
+Aimee Kneip Yes!
Waterbending was based on tai chi, yes. Fire bending was Shaolin, airbending was baguazhang, and Earthbending (except Toph, who used a mantis style) was hung gar.
+Josh Lake love that you know this
This comment thread made me happy, the exposure from the Avatar series on meditation and the different forms is what got me into meditation, tai chi, qigong, etc. Cool to see others are aware of it!
ah, now it all makes so much sense
Hey Jake, Lucy here when do you have a tai che class
