  1. 32 Sword Forms

    Posted by Bill on 11th May 2012

    The 32 sword forms are Yang-derived Tai Chi forms for the Jian, or Straightsword. The series is aestetically very beautiful. In terms of difficulty, you definitely should have an empty-hand set first, but the athletic demands are not too great. There are a couple of postures which may need modification for some practitioners; in particular, one form involves crouching in a legs-crossed position. One of the strengths of this video is that various individuals demonstrate different sections, and it is possible to compare differences between how Dr. Lam performs the forms and a younger student executes the posture.

    As always, the production standards are high, with good sound and image quality, and clear, well-paced instructions.
