Ki Breathing VHS Tape by Henry Smith (Preowned)

Rare out of print video by the late Henry Smith, chief instructor of Aikikai Philadelphia.

Master Proper Breathing Techniques To Connect And Harmonize With The Universe And Tap Into Its Power.

At one time, the words "breath" and "spirit" were synonymous. Breath embodies vital life spirit and the quality of our breathing determines the quality of our lives. We breathe differently when we are angry than when we are at rest. We hold our breath when shocked. We restrain it under tension. Changing our breathing can change our lives, increasing athletic performance, decreasing stress, and enhancing personal power and effectiveness. Breath is a vital elixir.

KI BREATHING introduces you to a new, more focused way to breathe. This 60-minute program explains the basic technique and then applies that technique through three movement series:

•Counting The Breath (11:50 min.) - focusing the breath in the center of the body, while emphasizing proper ki technique:

• Internal Series (17:03 & 22:52 min.) - warming the total system by locating and moving breath and ki energy throughout the body;

• External Series (30:40 min) - projecting ki energy our of the body using vigorous rotational exercises which revitalize mind and body.

60 min.
