Known in China as the Ba Duan Jin (健身八段錦), The Eight Pieces of Brocade has been practiced for over 1,000 years. Also included are the 'secret words' - poems that have preserved each exercise, which contain the key to each of these ancient medical qigong movements After you practice along with the easy-to-follow movements, you'll enjoy a fascinating qigong lecture by Master Yang.
The videos are organized into three main sections: 1. "Analysis" - A short demonstration of each qigong exercise with instructional voiceover to introduce each exercise 2. "Demonstration" - A follow-along continuous demonstration section in which Dr. Yang performs each piece with multiple repetitions 3. "Lecture" - A one-on-one class in which Dr. Yang instructs each exercise with more detail and qigong theory
Once you have learned the qigong exercises from the "Analysis and "Lecture" sections, you may simply follow along with Dr. Yang using the the continuous "Demonstration" video.
The standing eight brocades qigong set includes exercises to calm the mind, stretch your body, strengthen the teeth, improve digestion, heal the internal organs, boost your immunity and much more.
Each piece of the Brocades should be practiced by beginners 6 - 8 times to start. When you begin, only perform each exercise for the number of repetitions that feels comfortable. As your health improves, you may increase the number of repetitions up to 12, 24 or even 32 times. Don't skip any of the exercises or practice out of order.
This is a convenient training tool you can bring anywhere, to access this amazingly powerful exercise whenever it fits best into your day.
Whether you are a beginner or a qigong master already, these amazing exercises offer the perfect combination of relaxation and full-body stretching exercise. You'll enjoy reduced stress, a stronger immune system and a deeper awareness of your mind, body and spirit. You will develop important skills for immediate stress-relief to relieve anxiety and/or post-traumatic stress disorder or just relax, rejuvenate and maintain a healthy baseline of a calm and balanced mind and nervous system.
Qi-Gong means "energy-work". Qigong (chi kung) is the ancient art of building the body's Qi (energy) to a higher level and circulating it throughout the body for rejuvenation and health. Some Qigong is practiced sitting or standing still, while other Qigong can be a kind of moving meditation. This gentle stretching Qigong exercise is a highly effective way to enhance healing, raise up your spirit and generally improve your quality of life.

★★★★★
Finally! Very clear and easy qigong instruction. The best qigong app. I love how this has a short overview of each exercise, then a continuous demonstration of the whole series. I was able to learn them quickly, and then follow-along with the Master. After that, he talks in more depth about how and why each exercise improves your health and details for correct practice. He seems really nice. Awesome to have easy access to this Master teacher's authentic qigong.
★★☆☆☆
A more fitting name for the app would be, A Couple of Brocades. Once you open the app you see that only a small portion of it is free. I didn't even check the price but, after looking at other reviews, it seems to be about 10 bucks. You could buy a qigong DVD for around the same price. I saw that there were in app purchases available but assumed that meant that after the Eight Brocades there were other apps or additional content you could download into this app. No, this app only advertises itself as free to get you to download it. Then it requires you to pay a nice chunk of money to unlock the majority of the apps content. Without paying, the app is of zero use and should not advertise itself as free. Too bad, if it had a decent price and didn't try to mislead people by saying it was free, it might have been worth purchasing.
★★☆☆☆
No picture on video... I have no picture for the video. Tried streaming and download, both the same, sound but no video... 2 stars for that as not much use, disliked it isn't the correct description. Would like to be able to use the app as the reviews are great. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, still no video just sound.
