Introduction to Qi gong Exercise for Beginners with Lee Holden DVD (YMAA) Perfect Qigong DVD for Beginner

I like that Lee HOlden takes his time to show you how to do each and every move. You can just move along with him exactly. It is slow and more meaningful. The background scenery of the ocean is calming and adds nice mood to exercise as well as flute in the beginning. My husband and I do 2 segments each time and now we are doing the 30 day challenge for the fifth (5) time. We love it! If you are looking for a Qi Gong dvd to get you started and keep you doing it, this is the ONE. You won't be disappointed.

This is a great DVD for those who want to try something new and to counter weightlifting or other traditional exercise routines. Qigong will increase energy and improve circulation. After doing a few of the different Holden Qigong DVD s- I didnt realize how much of a sweat you get after awhile. The moves are easy to do ..and are less stressful on joints than yoga. Focusing on the breath is very imprtant and all moves are done with intent and purpose. The heart and lungs exercises ...improves my asthma greatly and I felt a difference from the beginning. I have bought a variety of the Holden series and love them all so far. He has a calming voice ...easy to follow instruction and the scenery is amazing. It puts you in the right mind set from the get go. Qigong works!!

If you've seen Qigong and you think you won't get the workout you need, think again! The exercises might be slow in movement most of the time, but it stretches and flexes every muscle in your body at one point or another! I bought this as my two hip replacements have made me not as balanced and not able to do exercises that bounce from mat to standing and other fast movements. So I looked for exercise videos that have controlled movements so that I didn't injure myself. Lee Holden is very good at teaching the names of the moves and talks about the muscles used and why you do the sequences that are done. Believe me by the time you are finished you will feel refreshed your "Chi" or life energy will be moving in the right direction and you will know that you have exercised.I reccommend it for any age.

Very well done video. My first experience with oriental exercises and found this a great introduction. Have only used it a few times, but each time I feel better. Highly recommended.

Love how Lee explains the purpose and benefits of each movement. His energy is positive and encouraging. I teach yoga to seniors and now begin each class with his 10 min Qi Gong warm-up. The outdoor settings lend themselves to practicing in nature, adding another dimension to Shinrin-Yoku, Forest Bathing. Simply perfect..accessible to virtually all skill levels...deeply soothing and refreshing to the body, heart, and soul.

If you have little energy but want to move your body, this is a great video. The instructor explains each move, how to perform the move and why it’s important. Each session is about 15-20 mins.

I have tension pretty much everywhere in my body, but this dvd is so relaxing that even a non-exercising person like me can do it and enjoy it! Even when I only spend a few minutes doing qigong I feel better. The narrator’s voice is soothing,too.

SAVE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON THIS ONE! THE DVD IS A COMPLETE RIPOFF! WHY THIS IS EVEN MARKETED AS A VIEWABLE DVD IS BEYOND ME. VERY HURT AND DISAPPOINTED! EXPECTED MUCH BETTER CONSIDERING WHAT IS BEING PROMOTED IS A HOLISTIC PRODUCT THAT HAS BECOME TAINTED AND FUELED BY TOXIC GREED! THIS ONE IS A RIP! WILL DEMANDING A REFUND!
