Thank You for sharing
Gracias maestro impresionante las enseñanzas se tai chi y Kun fu y ahora tomo sus enseñanzas 🙏🇦🇷⛩🥋👍🌎
Estaba con un ataque de ansiedad hice la rutina y colmo mi mente totalmente...mr suscribo y comparto! Es maravilloso!❤
I had gotten bells palsy due to extreme stress (though it felt more like a mini stroke) back in 2018 that also affected the entirety of the left side of my body with aches and pains and feeling stiff compared to the right side of my body. The first time I follow along to this (quite terribly actually but I did my best) after resting I could tell that my left jaw is not tense anymore, like WHAT, including the rest of my left side too! My arm, waist, leg, feet, I feel so loose and free, I am stunned and definitely doing this again to release the tension, Hella crazy and I'm loving it, I feel so thankful for this right now, my fingers feel it too, it's amazing!
hehe, good health is not pumping iron and running 20km every morning. Its simple and peaceful and yet makes u sweat bucket lots.

The Kung Fu soft forms are friggin magical. I love ‘am all. This is actually the first time I’ve heard of the Luohan Postures… pretty awesome.
I have had asthma since I was a kid and very bad allergies, resulting in a weak body and mind. Master Shi Heng Yi literally saved me from a very negative mindset, I am so grateful that the universe connected me with such a beautiful human being that has a very loving heart and shares so much with us. I am still early in my journey of healing the mind and body but now i have hope and guidence from him and his wonderful community ❤️. I wish that someday I will meet Master Shi and pay my respects to him and his community. Thank you for your unconditional love and teachings, much love and appreciation from Romania❤️
The Form and Master Shi's demonstration of it for me is the most exceptional resource offered by such a teacher anywhere online. Even in absence of any prior martial arts training or internal arts such as tai chi, I urge anyone viewing this clip to give this practice a try. Its entirety may appear complex, however as its title defines its merely 13 individual postures merged by a repeated circular transition from left to right. Simply practice the repetition of one posture at a time, committing this and the circular transition left and right to memory before attaining full recall and moving to next posture. Movement of breath along with muscular and skeletal flow in union with the internal energy of the body are centrally important aspects to the health benefit of these arts. However forms such as this one devised to merge all these aspects through the natural dynamics and expression of flow intrinsic to the human body. I have practised many forms in the past, all oriented to achieving the same health benefits. There's just something about this form that makes it the complete article and so uplifting to practice and work with. For many years such forms as these were confined to even small regions of homeland China. Its a huge blessing for one such as Master Shi to share this in such a detailed and honourable way with all who wish to watch and learn. I extend my most grateful respects for this and all other contributions he's made here on-line.🙏
Спасибо🙏💕
Wing Chun practioner here. At our school, we've learned the 13 Luohan Chi Gung as best we can and have been practicing for around three years (?). I can't over state how powerful I've found this. Thank you.
謝謝大師我是台灣人，二年多來一直跟著大師綀十三式氣功，很喜歡，更高興出了這個新視頻，更簡潔有力好喜歡，阿彌陀佛！
Master Shi has the most gentle, sophisticated and concentrated motions! 💚
真好看，太震撼了，师父的动作那么优美、流畅、干净、感染人心
I've found this video about 6 months ago.. It took some time to learn movements.. The routine for me is like a multitask medicine - in physical as well as in mental sense. Thank you!
At the age of 73, after having begun many, many times with different types of training, I have listened to you, Shifu, and now am working to introduce structure into my life FIRST, before I get very serious about training. It's a challenge, but grows easier with time and repetition. Thank you for good advice.
Excellent,thank you for this instruction.
I really appreciate your soul !!!
@@hasimlokmanhekim7555 Thank you!
That's sounds great. Stay on track!!
@@Iris-qd9cs I'm trying, but so many distractions! Doctor and dentist visits, car problems, family obligations. It's very hard to get up in the morning and stay on track for several hours when so many things pull us in other directions. But if you can't be consistent, then be persistent! Sometimes I can only do part of my morning routine, but the habits are gradually forming.
Im facing a hard illness, now.. preparing my body and mind for a difficult surgery. During the training i don't feel any pain, and forget all about it. I feel like flying and can see the light again. Thank you Shi fu. I'll be ready and strong for hard times. 🙏🏼
Are you okay,how was it , hope you are in good condition, don't give up to this illness, practicing even one or two forms on regular basis will be beneficial to your health ,wish you the best!
Thats great glad to hear that you are getting over the illness, i know how hard it is. So good on you👍
I did this for the first time today after Ba Duan Jin. It's challenging, but thats fine. Thank you Shi Heng Yi for your time and sharing your knowledge with us. Even in the saddest of times I can still motivate myself to follow the practises, the Shaloin Temple and your teachings are a gift. I hope you are well after your retreat and found the answers you were looking for. 🙏
Gosh it's so good to see you again master Shi Heng Yi... I hope you are well... You have such Elegance in your movements... It's still amazing to watch no matter how many times I see it... 🙏🏻☮️🙏🏻
Just some word's came to my mind. Shifu you redefine the Martial Arts, with harmony and form with interpreting movements, continuity of energy "Shi or Ki" in the right spot, lightness of mind and empty mind. It's an honor to be able to watch your training and always learn something new. Thank you a lot 🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is a lot more dynamic than the older one with 3 repetitions for each move. Good to have guided instructions for each move. Thank you Master Shi. 🙏
My soul and my entire body feels so grateful to practice under your guidance. Thank you very much Sifu Shi Heng Yi and to all your masters.
I follow your all moves and getting lot of benefit in pains and mind is much more calm and happy now .
Love it! Grace and power, harmony in every single movement. I can't take my eyes off the performance, with music it's really a masterpiece, he is dancing, doing qigong and meditating at the same time!
At 72 years, sometimes I’m fine then other times feel very I’ll; feel all energies leaving my body. Always Mr. Yi cures some blockages.
Your explanation of the practice reminds me SO much of my past as a professional ballet dancer. Everyday class was truly internal and external. I miss it so which is why I love my practice of qigong 🙏❤
I have always loved the 13 Luohan Postures since the Shaolin Temple Europe premiered their epic performance three years ago. ❤️ Thank you Shi Heng Yi - such a beautiful way of saying "hello" again to your community as you return from your well-deserved retreat. We missed you! I feel a sense of newness and an even more masterful way you have of sharing your expertise with us. Looking forward to working with this beautiful piece of art! 🙏
Poetry and power in motion. When I watch your videos, I can't take my eyes off of you. Mesmerizing! Thank you so much for producing them. Many blessings!

I have always loved 13 Luohan postures and the way you do it. Very grateful for this, can't wait to practice it this afternoon.
Ich liebe das, was Du tust, gibst, schenkst, Shifu🙏. Ich danke Dir, für Deine Zeit, Deine Hingabe und Dein grosses Herz, was Du in Dir trägst. Das Du Dein Wissen weitergibst aber nicht vergisst, das es Deine Erfahrungen sind und jeder seine eigenen Wege gehen sollte - das Du kein Maßstab bist - für irgendwen -. Du bleibst Dir selber treu und lässt jeden sein, wie er ist. Davor habe ich Hochachtung - Du bist Leben und Wachsen in Reinform, fokussiert auf Deine Weiterentwicklung, Deinen Weg. 🙏 Ich muss nicht sagen, pass auf Dich auf, denn das tust Du jede Sekunde, Minute, Stunde.🙏 ❤ JJ🌊

Allied to good acupuncture, I am happy to be on a path of optimism and good physical and mental health. Greetings from Brazil! Deise Lemos
