There is a gazillion of Tai Chi videos on YouTube. And I truly love the diversity of them. There are some “dead serious” form videos with all kinds of styles. Some videos show helpful healthy Tai Chi exercises or explanations on specific moves. You can learn a lot from then. And then there are videos I am not so sure, in which category to put them. I just call them fun Tai Chi videos. Have a look at them and decide for yourself:
See what could happen if you film Chinese doing Tai Chi:
Or did you ever lie in bed and thought: “I don’t want to get up and start my Tai Chi routine.” On-Back Tai Chi might be just the right thing for you:
In case you wonder where all the Qi stored in the lower Dantian might go to…
And after watching this video I know how I most likely look like when I try to follow a Tai Chi form I am not familiar with:
In this fun Tai Chi video you can see what it is like to show up for Tai Chi too angry:
Or what happens if Etta Mae Mumphries shows up for a Tai Chi class!
And for those of us who cannot stand well, Jean Claude Van Damme shows us how to do Tai Chi in the splits:
In this video you see the solution to the old problem: how do I get my sword to training without being arrested for carrying a sword?
Or do you prefer Batman?
But now let’s have a look at a little bit of Tai Chi fighting:
Ok, that was pretty intense, so I got some cat centent for you to calm down:
Well, on to another important topic on the internet: weight loss!
Now you made it to the final three fun Tai Chi videos, these are definitely my favorites:
I really want to try this!
THIS is a truly wonderful combination of music & moves:
Now enjoy some more music with a fighting form:
Happy Qi!

Sifu David a.k.a. “The Mind and Body Mentor”, is one of the most influential and respected teachers in the personal success and development space.
David has always had a fighting spirit even at a young age and comes from a family with a deep martial arts heritage. As a physically smaller kid he was often bullied by the larger kids in his school. Fortunately, he would fight back which eventually caused the bullies to leave him alone.
Later in his life however, he was severely assaulted which led him to take martial arts training more seriously. It didn’t take long for him to gain the techniques and confidence needed to defend himself effectively.
In additional to being a 3rd generation Bruce Lee student and also 3rd Generation Ip Man Student, he has studied with masters from around the world, from various martial arts styles from wing chun, jeet kune do, tai chi, chinese kung fu to jiu jitsu and military combatives.
It is his passion and life goal to continually stretch his limits to attain knowledge, wisdom, success and new abilities while helping others in the process who are searching for their path.
His training style is unique as it transforms not just the body, but also the mind and spirit. He takes transformation to a whole new level with insight on meditation, body-electrics (chi), and spiritual technology.
He is truly one of the extremely rare teachers who successfully blends ancient martial arts principles into modern day life, spirituality and personal success.
