Innovative Self-Paced Video Series Teaches Tai Chi in 1 Week

LOS ANGELES - June 15, 2023 - PRLog -- The "Tai Chi Fundamentals For Beginners" video series is enhanced with dynamic graphics and animation to support many of the concepts and facilitate learning. The 10-lesson series is available for purchase online at www.TaiChiWellness.online

"I make the course more manageable by breaking down each component into smaller, more user-friendly parts," said Rubia Smolens, the creator of Tai Chi Wellness Online and producer of the series. Smolens is known to her students as Sifu Rubia. Sifu is a title given to a Tai Chi teacher by their Master Instructor.

"I also take the time to intentionally repeat the movements making it easier for students of Tai Chi to grasp the concepts,"​ Smolens said.​

Each beautifully produced video segment teaches the basic principles associated with the ancient art of Tai Chi. One highlight of this series is the emphasis on specific walking drills designed to improve balance, body awareness, and overall health. These drills also help the student develop a deeper understanding of the "wave-like" motion typical of Tai Chi.​

Participants are also shown more traditional movements such as "Grasping Sparrow's Tail" and "Ward Off," which introduce a mind-body-spirit connection promoting mental clarity. The lessons are carefully demonstrated utilizing ample repetition, with each lesson building upon the other. Within seven days students will have been exposed to a full Tai Chi sequence.​

"I love everything about this course: Sifu Rubia's gentle relaxing voice, the beautiful scenery…and even the choice of music," said Theresa Knorr, CEO of Tai Chi for Recovery. "The instructions are precise and clear, and the use of imagery and repetition is artful."

Tai Chi Wellness Online was created in 2022 by Sifu Rubia who has been a Tai Chi instructor for over a decade and a student of the art for more than 15 years. She has also produced "Qi Gong For Grounding," a video series that explores the principles of Qi Gong, and "Co-Creating With The Stars," (https://courses.weiwutaichi.online/courses/co-creating-wi...) a video and book series about the intersection of Qi Gong and Western astrology.​
