Summary: Nice,
Comment: It would be nice to have a personal instructor in one's meditation space; but since that is not going to happen this dvd is quite nice.
This is not the first qi gong dvd that I've tried to follow. I've also had classes. This dvd is much better than anything that I have experienced before.
The moves are reasonably well explained. The purpose for the moves is also explained, which makes them meaningful.
If nothing else one feels relaxed. I felt improvement in my health condition immediately
Customer Rating: 
Summary: not for novices

Lee holden picture on front looked like him. I tried but had a hard time
following . Have returned this one.

Summary: A Good Introduction to Qigong
Comment: I bought this DVD because I wanted to try Qigong and decided I needed a beginner DVD since I knew nothing about it. I enjoyed the documentary about the many health benefits and was anxious to try it.
I found the exercises to be a little difficult to follow because of the mirror image problem. I actually stood with my back to the TV and looked over my shoulder so I could be in the same position as the instructors and then just listened after I got the hang of the movements. One nice thing about Qigong is that I think you could do a lot of it sitting down if you needed to (it is mostly arm movements). If you are in a wheelchair or have difficulty standing for some reason, you could still benefit from the breathing and arm movements. My arms got tired after awhile and I had to take some breaks during the hour session.
The health condition I wish to mostly address is anxiety/depression. Unfortunately, western medicine has caused me more harm than good in this regard, so I decided to look to the east for relief. The slow breathing and rhythmic moving is calming. I also get a lot of tension in my abdomen and I am hoping that this will help to release it!

Summary: My Personal View
Comment: This product is very informative and if you apply the instructions that are given, you can't miss. You can do these exercises at home on your own time and feel the results in a short time. This puts your health back in your own hands and you are in control. The bottom line is that it works and I hope more people buy this book and use it to their own advantage. I can't say enough about it. Ron

Summary: Qigong tape
Comment: This is a wonderful CD hosted by a man and his wife. The exercises are easy to follow and the background on the CD is beautiful. The exercises are very calming and easy to follow. The instructer goes slowly but does not spend a lot of time explaining the process. It is one of the best QiGong CDs I have purchased in the last 3 years.
