Possibly the most popular Qigong exercise in the world, the Eight Treasures (or Ba Duan Jin as it is known in China) has an ancient tradition which stretches back to the founder of Zen Buddhism; Bodhidharma. Seeing that his monks were tired from extensive meditation, Bodhidharma composed a set of exercises to give them energy and strengthen their bodies.

Hundreds of years later, a Shaolin monk took the eight most effective moves, and these are the exercises demonstrated on this DVD. They are also taught in Instant Health: The Shaolin Qigong Workout For Longevity book. 

Shifu Yan Lei  takes you step by step through this dynamic Qigong form, explaining each movement in detail. Once you have understood the moves, you can practice in real time with Shifu Yan Lei. The whole form is simple, easy to learn, and takes about twenty minutes.

By practicing this form on a daily basis, you can expect to see significant changes in health and vitality. Suitable for adults of all ages.
