The acute poses are simple but surprisingly effective. I have had headaches for years, and I have learned a few new tricks.
All exercises are easy to follow, explained very clearly.
Great.
Couldn't find Pdf easily - had to search through questions and answers section, where someone had been helpful by posting where to find the Pdf.
There's a bit of a confusing part on Rainbow Stretch, where he mentions "as we've already done" but haven't already done these moves he mentions - also this occurs again when he refers to as practiced earlier in sit-ups (which are not part of this training).
Overall good value for the fee charged.
I never believed I would ever find a cure to my neck and back pain. This course is magic! I love this man.
Easy to understand
:-)
This is a good course for very stiff people with very limited mobility and no tai chi experience. It's not tai chi and it would be a big stretch to call it qi gong. The eight pieces cover this and more... If you practice any kind of tai chi, this course is not for you. I'm beyond bored.
OK, I skipped ahead and for the more patient than I folks it does get interesting in the advanced section. Still easy but at last we get to move.

I enjoyed the course and am doing many of the stretches and moving exercises. They are being helpful in regaining and maintaining flexibility of the upper body which is important when you are in your 80s. I have also included some of the moving exercises into the warmup portion of a Qigong class I lead at a local senior center. The participants have enjoyed them.
I plan to take more of R. Rones videos on Udemy.
I would have given 5 stars except for a few technicalities:
1) It appears some of the instruction and practice videos of another course were used as a model to create this course, perhaps the Lower Back course. There would be times when the video would be talking about the lower back and not the upper back, shoulders and neck.
2) The only downloaded materials I could retrieve were the resume and practice log sheets. Those referenced in the Introduction section were not available, even with the link mentioned in the Q&A.
3) The Closed Captions were pretty good compared to some of the Udemy courses, but there were a few places where it was difficult to decipher a phrase or so.
