This book gives you all the information you need to undertake a safe, health-improving exercise regimen. These ancient Chinese exercises are fun and low impact and help to alleviate the pains of arthritis, fibromyalgia, carpal tunnel syndrome, and many other "senior" diseases. The book presents an overview of the practice of t'ai chi-from the principles of the movements to the history of the art itself. It discusses various positions and helps you understand what you can hope to accomplish. Plus, methods outlined in this guide can be performed standing or seated with no previous experience necessary, and taking into consideration limited range of movement. All exercises are presented in an easy-to-learn style, with true stories illustrating the benefits that other mature adults have gained from these practices.

 This is a book - you need a Tai Chi DVD October 17, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book is boring. Its illustrations were done on an old black and white copier. It is pretty much a waste of time and definitely a waste of money. I was looking at Tai Chi DVDs and somehow I bought this. Wonderless.
I did however, buy Sunrise Tai Chi and Sunset Tai Chi and these are great. They each have an hour long demonstration section which I am still working on which are done slowly enough so I can see what is happening and follow along. These are 5 star products.
 A must have for seniors October 8, 2007
