This exercise was concisely designed by David Chen, Ph.D. in Exercise Science.
Dr. Chen received his bachelor and master degrees in physical education from Beijing
Institute of Physical Education, and his doctorate degree from the University of North
Carolina at Greensboro. Dr. Chen has been studying and working on teaching and teacher
education in Eastern and Western exercise and fitness fields for over 20 years. Thousands
of students have benefited from his instructions. Dr. Chen fully understands the difficulties and frustrations that
Western students have had in learning Eastern exercise styles like Tai Chi and Qigong systerms.
To help more Western people who are interested in Chinese style exercises fully enjoy the beauty
and benefits of Tai Chi and Qigong practice IMMEDIATELY, Dr. Chen has been developing viewer-friendly, easy, safe, enjoyable and
effective exercise routines for various populations. All of these exercise routines were carefully
designed by following safety rules, professional teaching guidelines, human learning characteristics,
and principles in traditional Chinese medicine and modern exercise science. These exercises also reflect
the harmony of the combination of Eastern and Western exercise philosophies and techniques.
This video is the Forth level “wheelchair” version of Dr. Chen’s Tai Chi Qigong
workout routines. Dr. Chen will lead you through the safe, easy and
effective warm-up and stretching, and seventeen easy, beautiful, and moderately challenging Tai Chi
and Qigong forms (most were in 002 and 003) in a new sequence and repeated with the whole set of the 17 forms rather than the individual forms. Breathing has been fully integrated into the moves, and breathing cues are provided. With a fully balanced, mirrored demonstration, you will never get lost.
