This is an excellent video. It contains no vocals except a description of each move. Each movement is repeated slowly, from another angle enabling one to clearly see both hand and feet moves. Thus, move by move you can learn and gain confidence in what you are doing. I enjoy this style of learning very much.
Thank you to those who have presented this video.

HAVE HAD ONLY 2 LESSONS AND I FIND THAT THE ABOVE MOVES CONFUSE ME. IS THE TUTOR DOING THE MOVES FROM DIFFERENT ANGLES/ I CAN'T QUITE FIGURE THIS OUT.

I have tried some tai Chi moves. I think it is relaxing. I like to do it when I do it.

I taught taoist Tai Chi Beginners Classes for many years and went to many Mr. Moy workshops as well as Orangeville a lot - watch the diving the knee should be perpendicular to the floor this is preventing you from from providing a clear example to students who would then exagerate the movement and might cause harm - square the hips - relax and watch the lines

You are not using proper tai chi principles to maintain your balance and grounding. You are over-extending your movements, locking your elbows and not starting the movements from your waist.  You might want to try the Chen, Wu or Yang style tai chi.

thank you, your instructions and movements are easy to follow-I like your voice too :) xo

It is good you do tai chi, but you chin/nose way too far forward, chin in nape of neck straight, you also seem to float up and over the floor, tai chi players usual sink down into the floor, 'sung chan' grounding sinking the chi, relax and sink! good luck

You should learn some basics before teaching :(
Plant a seed, and get pupils when they can train in the shade of the tree.
