  • Tai Chi Ball Strength Training in Sun Style

    Dr. Jesse Tsao's instructor training new curriculum

    Not enough reviews to rate.

    Weighted-ball Strength Training in Sun Style Tai Chi, created by Dr. Jesse Tsao of Tai Chi Healthways, is one of the most effective ways to enhance your energy circulation and improve your balance, endurance, bone density, and core strength. Moving the ball around your torso massages your inner organs and reflects the inner dan-tian rotation. The weight helps develop your rooting and leg strength. Momentarily extending the ball away from the torso will improve your arm strength It can help build and maintain muscle mass and strength. Strong muscles lead to strong bones, and strong bones can help minimize the risk of fracture due to osteoporosis. It can also protect vitality, make everyday tasks more manageable, and help you maintain a healthy weight. Harvard Health Publications remarks that “a combination of age-related changes, inactivity, and inadequate nutrition conspire to gradually steal bone mass, at the rate of 1% per year after age 40.” As bones grow more fragile and susceptible to fracture, they are more likely to break after a minor fall or even a simple everyday activity such as bending over to tie a shoelace. Six out of 10 people who break a hip never fully regain their former level of independence. Even walking across a room without help may become impossible. Numerous studies have shown that strength training can play a role in slowing bone loss, and several studies show it can even build bone, offsetting age-related declines in bone mass. Practicing tai chi with a weighted ball puts healthy stress on the bones and can promote the activity of bone-forming cells. The result is stronger and denser bones. This video compliments Dr. Jesse Tsao and Jason Weil’s book Practical Tai Chi Training: A 9-Stage Method for Mastery, published 2021, the #1 Best Seller on Amazon new books on Tai Chi and martial arts.

    Tai Chi Ball Strength Training in Wu Style

    Weighted-ball training in tai chi forms is one of the most effective ways to improve your balance, endurance, bone density and core strength. Dr. Jesse Tsao created this practice for Tai Chi Healthways's instructor curriculum. It can help build and maintain muscle mass and strength. Strong muscles lead to strong bones, and strong bones can help minimize the risk of fracture due to osteoporosis. It can also protect vitality, make everyday tasks more manageable, and help you maintain a healthy weight. Harvard Health Publications remarks that “a combination of age-related changes, inactivity, and inadequate nutrition conspire to gradually steal bone mass, at the rate of 1% per year after age 40.” As bones grow more fragile and susceptible to fracture, they are more likely to break after even a minor fall or far less obvious stress, such as bending over to tie a shoelace. Six out of 10 people who break a hip never fully regain their former level of independence. Even walking across a room without help may become impossible. Numerous studies have shown that strength training can play a role in slowing bone loss, and several show it can even build bone. This is tremendously useful to help offset age-related declines in bone mass. Practicing tai chi with a weighted ball puts healthy stress (tugging and pushing) on bones and can nudge bone-forming cells into action. The result is stronger and denser bones.

  • Tai Chi Cane in Simplified Form 24

    tai chi cane, simplified form 24, jesse tsao

    Not enough reviews to rate.

    Tai Chi Cane in Simplified Form 24 Template is a specialized practice that incorporates the use of a cane within the context of the Simplified Tai Chi Form 24. This practice serves both self-defense purposes and facilitates the training of body energy extension through the cane. Following the publication of my book, "Mastering Tai Chi Cane for Health & Self-defense," I have received numerous requests from readers, particularly beginners and instructors, for a simpler Tai Chi cane form.

    My inspiration for this simplified cane form came from the traditional Tai Chi Eight Immortals Cane I & II, rooted in my hometown's practices. While these routines are excellent, they can be quite challenging for newcomers. In contrast, the Simplified Tai Chi Form 24, originally created by Li Tianji and popularized by my teacher, Professor Li Deyin, is widely acknowledged for its gentle and graceful movements, making it an ideal introduction to tai chi for beginners.

    In creating this cane routine, I have adapted the Form 24 template to cater to beginners, aiming to honor and carry forward the teachings of Professor Li Deyin while making tai chi with a cane accessible to a broader audience.
