@@DavidDorianRoss My Tai Chi teacher gave me two DVDs: There's too much stopping and talking on them. Just show me! Your style in this video is the absolute best imho. I watch it and follow along at least once every day. Thank you.
Thank you for this. I just wrecked my knee from skiing and am not currently able to do my morning Tai Chi. This is helpful 'til I get back on my feet again.
Thanks for that video Dave. I decided to be on my feet for the ‘embrace the moon’ position and thought I may as well stay standing from then on. JeganK
That was great David. I am starting to realise that with ordinary Tai ji, more than 1/2 the work is done by your legs, that’s why, I can feel tired doing it. Thanks, Jegan f
It is great! I am 52. I broke my hip and had surgery . They fixed it, but I can't put any weight on my leg. I practice Gigong usually. I tried to find some seated practices and discovered your channel. I really enjoy your seated Tai Chi. Thanks.
i can't help but want to follow david's movements. they are hypnotic and beautiful. I am practicing the seated tai chi to volunteer with the residents at local care facility. they could watch on the big screen but enjoy a live person to make that connection. so far so good for me and them :) thanks for sharing!
I suffered a mild stroke 6 yaers ago. Over the last year I have slowed noticably and struggled with balance issues. Istrated with Seated Tai Chi and felt significantly better than I had in months. I tries working with some of your other videos and was glad that I did! My balance has come back so I can stahd and do the movements. Keep the videos coing and suggest what you consider to be most beneficial for my situation. Thank yo for doing this great service for people who can certainly benefit from movement especially since we have been isolated fro so long!
I love this particular practice. It makes me feel happy and contented when I finish. My day always goes better when I do this practice the first thing in the morning. I am moving forward with your standing tai chi, too.
Thanks for that last one sensei. I have been doing tai-chi now for a long time now, almost back immediately after my accident. I love your lessons man!
This is just beautiful. I have been so sad since a degenerating spinal condition meant I have had to give up my standing Chi Kung practice. But there is nothing lacking in this these lovely, flowing, seated movements. Thank you so much.
The acoustic guitar song is good for setting an atmosphere that’s perfect for tai chi btw Dave tai chi has become as much a part of my morning routine as having a shower or breakfast
I’m a beginner just diagnosed with AFIB, this was wonderful , the VERY BEST of the other teaching styles I have viewed. I’m going to do this every day and move on to your others, I’m sweating but my heart feels so happy! Thank you!,,,
thanks for the video. I have balance issues so I went looking for seated tai chi this morning and your video came up. I enjoyed it - the music was a great meditative benefit.
Thank you. I remember when I first found your am chi for beginners. Changed my life. I've been following you to some degree ever since. I got out of habit for a while and am so glad I found you again. My life feels better, having inspiration like you in it. Sharing this one with my mom and other loved ones who can really benefit from your guidance.
Thank you so, so much for this! My husband and I do your Tai Chi class on The Great Courses and I also love your Easy Tai Chi here! I love sending your seated Tai Chi to my mom, many miles away, so she can join in to our wonderful exploration. This is such a gift during the pandemic, and always. Thank you! ❤️
I have been using your DVD's and on-line videos for months now and really love them. This morning, I had a minor episode of vertigo that didn't last long, but felt a little unsure of how comfortable I would be doing my usual practice. So, I used this video and was amazed. Wonderful sense of grace and movement. In fact, I noticed so much more detail in the arm/hand movement that I will use this one as a tutorial for my regular practice. Thank you for all you do.,
Thank you David for all the videos you do! I utilize the seated videos in my 65+ mental health class to help them realize that at any age they can do something to enhance their mood and learn to relax. They all tell me how much they enjoy learning Tai Chi! Thank you again for your hard work and dedication to teaching others!
Hi DDR, I've recently sprained the ligaments in my knee when hiking and have been looking for TaijiFit seated workouts. This one is wonderful and I will enjoy following it in the weeks to come. Thanks ever so much for your generosity towards others. Linda D
Dave that was amazing, my good friend olly is always wanting me to try seated tai-chi Bcause U don’t realise how much I depend on my legs. I will recommend it to others now
Jegan - so glad you like it! Seated Tai Chi is so versatile and adds a whole new dimension to Tai Chi practice. In case you didn't see them, I have other seated videos on the channel. Hope you like them too. :-)
I'm so glad you stumbled onto the channel. There is a lot here to explore - please let me know if you have any questions or would like to see something in particular!
David, I love your seated tai chi videos, your warmth and your patience. I really appreciate when you write what the various movements are called, so I can practice. Do you have some seated tai chi that incorporates more of the lower body? Peace and love to you from Western Canada.
Thank you so for this practice. Me at 61 and my Mom at 82 have been doing your CDs for several months. Now I am rehabbing a hip surgery and this is saving my metal health and spirit. I love this music and wonder if its available download ?
Hey David, I'm new Brazilian viwer on the channel, just start to learn tai chi. I'm watching the 100 days and im in day 19 and enjoying very much. I really wanna thank you because I'm leaning so much and loving so much tai chi I'm really thankful to you. Sorry for my english, I learn alone so has a lot of mistakes, but I'm writing with love hahahahah.
Does anybody know the name of the music that plays thru the Brush Knee (6:29-9:38) portion of this practice? What is that stringed instrument? It really speaks to me--so much intention in that tune!
I LOVE this. although i do struggle to make the switch when the camera changes angles i get really confused which arm i'm on and which arm is doing what: Update. So i've been doing this video almost every night for a month now 1) this is the longest i've ever stuck at anything and it doesn't feel like a chore i have to get through each evening unlike every other routine i've ever tried - this is so relaxing. 2) I've been suffering from costochondritis and slipping rib for over a year on top of having an already very weak upper back and poor posture. I've been in pain 24/7 for over a year. When i started i couldn't even make it half way through the video before my back started to ache from sitting up straight. Tonight I made it the entire way through and it only started to ache when 'closing the door'. I never thought i would enjoy or do tai chi - i thought it was just a lot of waving your arms around slowly and didn't see the point or value in it (i'm just being honest here) - i certainly never thought it would make me stronger and feel better in mind and body. THANK YOU for this video and for proving me wrong!
You are such a wonderful teacher. I started studying Tai Chi in March with Tai Chi AM/PM, and continued with a few more of your programs. Following this video tonight was the first time I could really feel the energy in my palms, actually tingling as I passed it back and forth! I especially liked the part in this video where you hide your hand so I'm forced to watch just one hand at time. I feel like that one thing helped me understand so much about gaze and sightline and how to 'not think' while I'm learning and practicing. Thank you for everything!
I am in the UK and have been really enjoying your tai chi videos. I'd love to join in your live sessions sometimes but I have looked everywhere on your channel and website and youtube but have no idea how to access these live. Can you help?
I wish I could do tai chi sitting down but unfortunately I can't because I have to do yang short form 60 movements the one I practice but sadly um I loss my faith in my skill craft
Look at the entire video. Several times the camera changes angles so we can see what was previously hidden by the tree. Several times despite being partially hidden it's possible to determine his hand position. The upper hand is sometimes shown in a position as it comes from behind the tree that is obtained by simply rotating the hand gently. I hope this helps you decipher the hand movements.
I agree. His videos of many years ago had softer, a bit more ethereal, Asian or New Age type music. Many of the newer ones...just irritating. Like going into a Chinese restaurant and hearing hip hop in the background. Do like the moves in this one, but I had to turn off the volume.
I’ve been following your tai chi for the past year and consider this silent one with captions the best. Thank you. Keep up the good work.
This is your best video ever. I like the clear movements, their subtitles and accompanying music. No speaking, that's fresh.
Thank you so much for the feedback. I honestly didn't know if it would work for people with no instruction or voice over. Good to hear!

Thanks for that video Dave. I decided to be on my feet for the ‘embrace the moon’ position and thought I may as well stay standing from then on. JeganK
Fantastic...Excellent for a Senior Beginner. I live in a country setting which is a plus 😀👍🏽
Tha k you so much for this great video always you make me calm and your videos not complicated thank you for everything
That was great David. I am starting to realise that with ordinary Tai ji, more than 1/2 the work is done by your legs, that’s why, I can feel tired doing it. Thanks, Jegan f
Should say ‘JeganK’ at the end, sorry ,that’s a sure sign that I need breakfast
It is great! I am 52. I broke my hip and had surgery . They fixed it, but I can't put any weight on my leg. I practice Gigong usually. I tried to find some seated practices and discovered your channel. I really enjoy your seated Tai Chi. Thanks.

Dave I like the soft acoustic music at the end. U kno where you don’t need drums at all and you can switch off your mind

I hurt my back so I did this practice instead of one of your Tai Chi workouts on Great Courses. What a lovely practice this is! Many thanks xxx
Thanks for that last one sensei. I have been doing tai-chi now for a long time now, almost back immediately after my accident. I love your lessons man!
Jegan thank you! Great to hear that your recovering well. Sending Good Qi!
So beautiful ,so much love in the movements.Awesome.Nga mihi ki a koe David

Sensei that was quite possibly the best music for tai chi ever! I love how relaxed I feel in myself when doing tai chi

Thank you❤
I want to ask if in future you can prepering video about Tai Chi ball
I like music in this video. Where did you find the music?
Hey Dave, what happened with your other video when you said “I’ll talk to you after we’re done, and then you never did
I ❤ doing TaijiFit to music it’s cool
What is the first exercise called?
Great!!
Dave have you tried videotaping yourself from behind cause I got lost a couple of times there
I wish I could do tai chi sitting down but unfortunately I can't because I have to do yang short form 60 movements the one I practice but sadly um I loss my faith in my skill craft
David! I loved the soft guitar music at the beginning, you can easily lose yourself in
I like this. The only downside is that his hand continues to disappear behind a tree so you cant see what that hand is doing anytime he moves it up
Look at the entire video. Several times the camera changes angles so we can see what was previously hidden by the tree.
Several times despite being partially hidden it's possible to determine his hand position. The upper hand is sometimes shown in a position as it comes from behind the tree that is obtained by simply rotating the hand gently.
