As a student learning Taiji, I'm giving a full "five stars" to Master Martin Kelly's instructional DVD, "Chen Taijiquan 48 Posture." 

I highly recommend this DVD to anyone wishing to learn, or improve their practice of Chen style Taiji. Martin's demonstration videos on this DVD clearly and slowly demonstrate how he performs this classic style, with emphasis not only on the various postures, but also on the flow of movement he uses to transition through the entire series.  

Videos are filmed from different perspectives and speeds to illustrate how each movement is accomplished, so that you can easily follow along. 

 Martin also provides a wealth of information along the way: what the names of these various postures and movements are; where physiological emphasis is placed; and how they relate to the overall practice and philosophy of Taijiquan. 

 This is a great DVD! Thanks very much, Martin, for presenting this rich Taiji tradition in an interesting and accessible format.
