this video is a genuine blessing ... beside its being an excellent video production, "bamboo mountain" offers us a simple, gentle and potent way to cultivate the three treasures (the three major power centers of the body) ... the excercises, like the instruction, are simple, yet potent ... the title says what truly needs to be said of the content ... bamboo is firm, yet yielding ... mountain is secure, yet reaching ... both are bridges between "this and "that" ... therefore, practicing "bamboo mountain" offers the wisdom of secure reaching and firm yielding ... bottom line: this video is for those who choose to cultivate "body wisdom" though quality exercise, instruction and videography ... "bamboo mountain" is defintinely for those who seek to experience "earth-heaven, simple-potency, body-wisdom, " ... ENJOY!!!

Bamboo Mountain Chi Kung is the best investment you can make. When I first discovered it I thought it was a bit spendy for a fitness video, but after doing it for awhile I relize that it is priceless. It truelly works! I have fought off colds by doing this video, I can feel the stress tingling away as I do it and I feel more......how do I put this...........in myself. I love it.

I took a alult education course with a woman who has studied under Betty Sun, and recommended the video. Many people do not believe the true benefits of this simple to do exercise. Relaxation, better health and mind are real rewards for this exercise. Its easy to do, whether you are fit or not, young or old you can do Chi Kung. I cant say enough about this video. I only wish it was on DVD as well!

I love the Chi Kung form...felt CHI with every move...very informative but poor DVD quality...looks like a copy of an old video.

I'm a student of Joi and Betty and have been for over 13 years and I do this form. Watching this form on film with the peaceful
settings, the beautiful grounds on which it was made and the soothing voice of the narrator- Joi- makes a person really want to learn this beautiful, yet easy to learn, form. The photographer- Perry - did a superior job of capturing the simple graceful movements and scenery. It's a job well done.

I wasn't expecting much when I ordered it but this was hands down one of the best chi kung videos I ever bought. It was beautiful the way they gave you the philosophy
while they were practicing chi kung. I got it on vhs but the quality was no problem. The music and surroundings were beautiful and the instruction was good.

The narration and demonstrator were uninteresting, the instruction was muddled and non-compelling, and seemed to assume too much about the viewer's previous knowledge of their method. We could barely make it through. Watched it once and now it's a dust collector.

We recommend Terence Dunn's meditations instead. (We are not affiliated with Terence Dunn, we just really enjoy the videos.)
