Description:

Martial arts master Lawrence Tan combines elements of yoga, tai chi, and qi gong to form one exercise that can be used either to energize or relax, depending on how the movements are performed. He instructs viewers by first demonstrating the moves himself, then using models, and finally teaching a class on-screen. Each step is shown with care and deliberation, ensuring that the novice can keep up. Tan, a pony-tailed instructor with 30 years of martial arts experience, uses graphs to explain his principles and is fond of colorful expressions ("The mind is a drunken monkey"; "Float down through liquid Jell-O") to make his points. This 38-minute lesson should get viewers on the right track, whether the goal is "three minutes to power" or "three minutes to peace," or both. --Kimberly Heinrichs
