David-Dorian Ross guides the viewer through a meditative, easily understandable and do-able workout for releasing tension, re-connecting with positive energy, and giving some strength training to the body. This is a wonderful gift to own.

I had three of the six on VHS and wanted to get them on DVD.  Buying this item I got the three I wanted for less than buying them separately, so I bought this item.

I would highly recommend this video - it's very good to use after you've been doing Lilias' "beginner" tapes for awhile.  They're many of the same postures but much more strenuous, and at a quicker pace.  I find  the "downward dog series" is really improving my posture, which  is poor after 4 c-sections.
Prospective buyers should be aware that this  is a 2 cassette, 120 minute tape.  Also available and listed under the very  same name is a 1 cassette version, only 60 minutes.  I think it's just the  1st cassette, sold separately from the 2nd.

This is a very interesting video set. I remember watching it back in 1989.  I didn't know the VHS tapes were available-until now!  Thanka again!

I was looking to learn Tai Chi and this Beginners DVD is very nice. The instructor takes his time so you can learn the positions properly. I saw other reviewers stating they wished the instructor was faster with instructions. To me, the reason the instructor takes his time is so positions can be learned properly. As with all exercises (including stretching), if not done properly one can get hurt. I really like this DVD and use it whenever I want, any day, any time. I enjoy it.

This DVD is a great opportunity to practice with Hanh the monks and nuns of Plum Village. It is easy to follow and understand, a very simple and pleasant video.
I found myself very calm and relaxed (and a little tired!) after doing the excercises. It is a very interesting experience, and really gives tribute to Hanh's principle of engaged buddhism.

I have enjoyed 5 Mile Creek VHS in the past and was very happy to see it in DVD format--easier to store :).  Family oriented, teaching simple values that often are forgotten.

This is a Book/DVD combo that has a short demonstration, then a break down of the moves, the book will be needed to explain the intricate moves. The book also has a very good forward explaining the facets behind the Martial Art. This is a very nice opening for beginners, it is an exercise regiment that is about 15 minutes long, maybe a little longer. This is one of a four set series that demonstrates the basics of Qi Gong, Tai Ji Quan, Shaolin Quan, and Wushu "Chinese Kung Fu". It does not matter which Book/DVD you begin with, each is a stand alone, but is better when combined with the others.

The book is a good introduction but the video set of 7 DVDs is the way to go. The videos are worth the investment.

I want to keep some of my VHS decks alive so I can watch
home movies and slowly convert everything.  This book is
very short but to the point.

I must say the "White Ape Steals Peach" - DVD is VERY GOOD, with clear and precice instruction, that is easy to follow. I like the fact that they have included applications, different options to view the form, and detailed instructions on how to execute to moves.

Mantis is quite a tricky style to learn, and through DVD it is even more difficult, but having a background already in Mantis, I found this instruction DVD to be very easy to learn from.

This is excellent work!! Keep it up, and give us many  more DVD`s in the future.

I hope to see more weapons-DVD`s also (saber, stick, sword or other "exotic" weapons) from MartialSkill.

I will definitely check out the other videos from MartialSkill as well, looking forward to see the "Chain Styles DVD" soon. :)

I found this video extremely interesting. It gives basic flexibility exercises by teaching a few bellydancing and a few T'ai-chi movements.  The purpose seems to be to gain control over the fine muscles of the body to  learn to move gracefully.  This video is great for people who don't have  years to devote either to T'ai-chi or bellydancing but want to derive the  benefits with some simple exercises.  The tape is clear and well made.

GREAT DVD !  A LTTLE WORDY BUT IF YOU REALLY WANT TO GET INTO KUNG FU, THIS IS IT.  FROM BASIC TAI CHI MOVEMENT AND FORMS TO APPLICATIONS WITH FULL EXPANATIONS AND DEMONSTRATIONS OF EACH MOVEMENT .  IF YOU ARE NOT SERIOUS ABOUT THE FULL PHILOSPHICAL AND MENTAL PREPARATIONS FOR IN DEPTH PRACTICE OF THE ART, THIS IS NOT FOR YOU.  AFTER GOOD INSTRUCTION FROM A  QUALIFIED MASTER, THIS VIDEO WILL ENLIGHTEN YOU AND GIVE YOU A FULLER APPRECIATION OF THE MARTIAL ART OF KUNG FU.  LIKE ANYTHING WORTHWHILE IT TAKES A LOT OF PATIENCE AND REVIEW TO APPRECIATE THIS DVD.

Checked this out at the Library and liked it enough to own it! Scott Cole is exceptional at making the complex art of Tai Chi very simple for beginners....avoiding intimidation and intellectualizing. Watching this video makes you jump right up and start doing the moves! You are doing Tai Chi within 5 minutes and enjoying it :)
