Bliss Qigong

This is an outstanding DVD.

John Du Cane is a great teacher; I had never practiced Qigong, Tai Chi (or any martial art for that matter) but learning the different movements was extremely easy.

Mr. Du Cane provides very clear instructions with a calm and relaxed voice.

This form is truly about cultivating Qi and highlights the most fundamental principles of Qigong; a raw beginner will benefit greatly simply by following the instructions while trying to integrate the more advanced concepts, which can be done very gradually.

With a strong focus on meditation, it is very soothing. You will probably see results from the very first practice and, over time, this practice can be made as "intense" as you want it to be, as short or as long as you want it to be (the actual form is rather short and easy to memorize - I like to practice it in a GTG fashion, daily).

I have already noticed significant changes in body composition using this DVD along with the Power and Serenity DVDs from The Five Animal Frolics series. This was somewhat unexpected.

These DVDs will certainly keep me busy for many years as I keep studying and practicing this art.

Thank you.

Initially I did the movements for 30 minutes didn't feel nothing, and thought what a fraud. As I came out of position I felt like a wave of relaxation had hit me if that makes sense. I was freaked out. I do chi gong on weekdays prior to work, helps me refrain from stress. It's simple and straightforward, buy it now!

I owned this originally as a vhs. When my vcr died, I vowed not to replace it (the vcr that is...outdated technology and all )and thus I began lending this vhs out to my patients (I practice Traditional Chinese medicine). It never came back...and that's ok. It gave me an excuse to get the dvd.

I never would have made it through my graduate program without practicing qigong with John. I've tried to work and go to school before, and I always got stressed and sick. I believe qigong helped balance me, in a completely unbalanced lifestyle, enough so that I was able to finish my graduate program in tact!

The video is transporting that feeling of beeing well and "let go" very good. Excellent and easy to follow demonstration. You can unpack the video and get right in front of the monitor and it feels probably as if you are standing in the second row of a Qigong class were you understand everything beside you can not ask anything. I love the concept of split it in parts and than putting it all together on the end. I have a basic knolledge of Qigong, but after this video and in the same way the 5 frolics video from John, you have the foundation to go on or to expand what you allready know.

i'm a novice in the world of tai chi. been taking wu tai chi for a month. to tell you the truth i'm pretty skeptical about the whole mystical aspect of the internal martial arts-but have since changed my mind the day i received this bliss dvd. i went straight into john's instruction of the 21 movement-i followed him very closely and learned the form. i then proceeded to take my daily walk and felt an extreme peace inside of me and also sensed that i had a protective shield around my body. wow-all after my first day with the dvd. imagine what one would gain after just one year. my skepticism about ima is gone. i look forward to one day to meet mr.john du cane and personally thank him for making this "secret yang qigong" available to us all.

I saw John Ducane on you tube teaching a fitness coach qigong, and his deliberate and thorough explanation of each move persuaded me to purchase his video, "Bliss Qigong." He was credible enough to me that I continued the exercises. Then, one day, I actually felt resistance when I pushed my hands together at about two inches from each other. It kind of freaked me out. This stuff is real. Excellent instructor. Excellent video.
