Cosmic Tour Ba-Gua
(available in DVD and VHS format)
Newly Released
By Master Hua-Ching Ni
Cosmic Tour Ba-Gua has healing powers similar to Tai Chi, but the energy flow is quite different. Ba-Gua consists of a special kind of walking which corrects the imbalance and disorder of "having a head heavier than the rest of the body." Walking in a large circle over an open ground with the image of a flying bird or a swimming fish, Cosmic Tour reduces the congestion of our modern, intellectual lives and brings the energy down to the feet in order to improve circulation.
