Amazon.com Qigong is Chinese meditation in motion, an ancient healing art using posture, exercise, breathing, and concentration. This video shows you how to harness the power of qi--the energy of the universe--to heal body and mind. Qigong uses dynamic, gentle movements and meditative postures. The video starts with a warm-up of whole-body breathing. Then master instructor Ken Cohen teaches a selection of exercise sets to cleanse the body, recharge it with fresh qi, circulate qi where it is needed, and disperse stagnant areas. He also teaches a series of healing sounds and techniques of standing meditation and walking meditation, along with posture and self-massage. This is a fine introduction to qigong, with many months of learning in this one 90-minute video. The setting is outdoors and seems Asian, with rocks, greenery, and a wooden bridge. Informational booklet included. --Joan Price

well worth the spending August 17, 2006 David Lenkovitzki (AR USA) A very clear, and comprehensive tool for self sevelopment. Post standing and walking are included as well.
I recommend it highly.
qi gong by ken cohen video February 1, 2005 Sam Johansen (USA) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
A wonderful way to learn the essence of healthy breathing. Ken takes his time to give the ultimate details to optimize posture and benefits from the practice. I have viewed the video over 50 times in the past few years and I still learn from viewing it again.
Good instruction July 19, 2004 Massimo Maddaloni (Bozeman, MT United States) 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
This is a good video. It teaches some mild ChiGung. The real novelty here is the instruction about the healing sounds coupled to the exercises. I respectfully disagree with another reviewer that this video is too wordy. One can learn from the video and then going "inside" and doing the real training. The video "the five animal frolics" by the same author is by far the best instructional tool he made public. It's a shame that the author didn't re-record the "frolics" with the same high quality as this one.
Less than wonderful April 4, 2003 margaret taylor (brackendale, British Columbia Canada) 5 out of 12 found this review helpful
This video was less than wonderful. It had too much chatting, and not enough exercises. Then the exercises it did have were the ordinary run of the mill kind.Definately not worth the money I paid for it
Easy-to-follow instruction January 13, 2002 Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) 21 out of 23 found this review helpful
In Qigong: Traditional Chinese Exercises For Healing Body, Mind, And Spirit, Ken Cohen takes the viewers through a 90 minute, full color, video presentation of the Ancient Chinese system of gentle movements and breathing techniques designed to access and harness the basic energy of the university abiding in the human body and called "qi". Easy-to-follow instruction and dozens of demonstrations hallmark a four-part Qigong workout that is simple to learn and perform. Qigong is strongly recommended viewing for students of applied eastern philosophies, as well as ordinary men and women in search of a peaceful spirit and healthy body.
