Review Tai Chi for Arthritis - Mandarin Chinese Version:The beginning of Tai Chi for Arthritis introduces the arthritic senior-citizen members of Paul Lam's Australian tai chi class, who share their stories of increased range of motion and resulting enjoyment of life thanks to the positive effects of exercise. Lam, a Sydney physician and international tai chi champion, personally vouches for the ancient practice, which reversed the debilitating effects of his own arthritis. Then the class follows an hour-long program of warm-ups, stretches, and 12 movements that increase muscle tone and joint movement for the arthritic. These consist of six basic movements, six more advanced movements, and a separate demonstration by Lam without verbal instruction for those ready for a more fluid daily practice. Lam also introduces a set of qigong exercises for arthritis, explaining that the Chinese believe that the sluggish flow of Qi-the Chinese word for energy-is a major cause of arthritis. -Kimberly Heinrichs.

Review Tai Chi for Health - The 6 Forms Spanish Version:Tai Chi: 6 Forms, 6 Easy Lessons moves at a steady and fluid pace that is accessible to all levels of fitness. The instructor, Dr. Paul Lam, condenses this practice into six lessons, taught with meticulous explanation and repetition. The constant recap of each form aids in creating an approachable and easy-to-follow learning environment. Each routine is added piece by piece, which makes comprehending the overall continuity easy. Although effective in practice, video instruction may not be ideal in theory because Tai Chi lacks the same calming effects when performed in front of the television set. But this method offers such practical and basic instruction that all levels will soon be doing Tai Chi in the atmosphere of their choice. Each of the segments can be put together to form a cohesive and continuous workout or performed separately if participants want to zero in on specific forms. In addition to Tai Chi, the DVD includes a 3-in-1 Qi Gong workout. Qi (or vital life energy) Gong is based on traditional Chinese medicine and acts as a complementary addition to the overall experience. [+]This regimen is ideal for anyone who desires both a mentally and physically focused workout. Participants with compromised backs, joints, and muscles will find a safe and nonaggravating practice that can alleviate tension and increase flexibility and balance. Tai Chi: 6 Forms, 6 Easy Lessons extends a warm invitation to old and young alike with this safe and educational format. -Olivia Voigts.

Review Tai Chi Fighting Set - 88 Posture Advanced Taijiquan 2-Person Matching Set (YMAA) Dr.Yang, Jwing-Ming / YMAA Publication Center:The Tai Chi Fighting video comprehensively instructs and demonstrates the 88-Posture, 2-Person Fighting Matching Set for advanced Tai Chi Chuan (Taijiquan). This Fighting Set is a combination of techniques from pushing hands and the solo Tai Chi Chuan sequence, and it serves as a bridge connecting pushing hands with real fighting. Like pushing hands, it teaches you how to sense your opponent's actions and intentions, and it also teaches footwork and how to set up your strategy, making your fighting skill more realistic and alive. Anyone who is proficient at the solo sequence and pushing hands should be able to learn this fighting set easily, and make it part of their practice routine. In ancient times, this form was taught by a few masters to only a handful of trusted students as a part of the final training of Taijiquan as a sophisticated and extremely effective fighting art. No matter what style of Tai Chi you practice, the Tai Chi Fighting Set is an important part of the study of authentic Tai Chi Chuan for all martial artists.

Review Hercules The Legendary Journeys - Season One Video Set / MCA Television:Forget Steve Reeves and all those Italian strongmen who played stiff, humorless versions of the mythic demigod in 1960s Saturday matinee fodder. Hercules: The Legendary Journeys (a cluster of 1990s television films followed by a syndicated series) re-imagines and re-introduces Hercules-son of Olympian chief Zeus and an earthbound, mortal mother-as a laidback but focused hero of ordinary folks with extraordinary problems. Played with casual grace and ironic wit by Kevin Sorbo, the new Hercules wanders through an equally entertaining, revisionist view of ancient Greece as, well, charming and accessible-not exactly Homeric. There are gods and monsters aplenty, but if this was the cradle of civilization, well. This eight-disc volume includes five movie-length adventures, thirteen one-hour episodes, and numerous bonus features. Narratively, the unfolding story finds Herc doing good deeds wherever he's needed, though his backstory is more interesting, including a dubious relationship with his all-powerful dad (a sweet performance by Anthony Quinn)and a tendency to feel the wrath of Zeus's wife, Hera, simply because Hercules is the philandering old man's illegitimate offspring. The movie cycle ends with Herc in a state of domestic bliss; the subsequent, regular series darkens him considerably but then thrusts him repeatedly into adventures with redemptive possibilities. [+]Nifty special effects make one believe once again in centaurs, many-headed serpents, a Minotaur, a Cyclops, and several other fantastic species not included in standard references to Greek myths. The regular or recurring cast include Michael Hurst as Hercules's vain, comic-foil buddy, Iolaus; Tawny Kitaen as the hero's wife; and Lucy Lawless in a pre-Xena role (in Hercules and the Amazon Women) and then as the Warrior Princess herself for multiple episodes. All together, this is a show that turned out to be smarter and funnier than anyone might have expected in the mid-'90s, and which holds up very well today. -Tom Keogh.

Review War Zone - WWII Off North Carolina's Outer Banks, Part II - Let's Face the Music and Dance / Tapeworm:In April of 1942, a pivotal theatre of WWII was centered just ten miles off the coast of North Carolina at the tip of Diamond Shoals near Cape Hatteras. Ships were sunk by German U-boats at a rate of one per day. Lifeboats and wreckage ferrying forlorn victims floated out to sea and many vanished without a trace. On the Outer Banks, corpses washed up on the beaches along with millions of barrels of oil. There were whispered rumors of German sympathizers, spies and saboteurs. Thousands of servicemen appeared on the tiny, sparsely populated islands. Romance blossomed with Spring flowers while other newfound friendships went down with so many ships. War Zone Part Two portrays how life was altered when war was waged on Outer Bankers' doorsteps. Learn the truth behind decades old urban legends of German spies, sympathizers and saboteurs. Featured is an eyewitness account of the almost calamitous first engagement between a U-boat and a U. [+]S. Navy destroyer. Experience the surprising reactions of American servicemen toward enemy sailors when U-boats are finally sunk off the Outer Banks.
