Time graph for Tai Chi for Health Yang Long Form

With 108 Tai Chi positions, it’s the most comprehensive Tai Chi program ever (a previously discontinued video classic, it’s just been re-released). You’ll begin with a 31-minute “warm-up” that prepares your body as it teaches the basic Tai Chi movements. Then, it’s 61 minutes of ultra-detailed instruction on each of the 108 traditional “long form” Tai Chi moves. Terry Dunn, a low-key, very experienced instructor, is exceptionally detailed (e.g. “keep a 45-degree angle…” “be careful not to …”). He teaches one-on-one and often incorporates corner-of-the-screen insets to present the position from two angles. Finally, you’ll use all these moves in the flowing, 17-minute follow-along “workout” (no distracting narration, just quiet music by Vangelis). ©1988. DVD has: Chapter menus.

Reading a Time Graph

Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.

Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.
