Tai Chi For Health And Vitality (Robert Parry)

Tai Chi For Health And Vitality (Robert Parry)

Tai chi is good for everyone, of any age or fitness level. An experienced tai chi teacher presents one of the most popular styles–the Short Yang form–and shows complete beginners how they too can enjoy its many health benefits. These richly illustrated and information-filled pages make it amazingly easy to follow every move. Generously sized photographs with numbered, comprehensive instructions show all the positions in every sequence. Inset close-ups focus in on details. There’s also guidance on shifting body weight and notations on when to inhale and exhale. Begin with a warm-up, and then try narrow stances, diagonal steps, steps that go backwards and sideways, rotations and turns, and closing movements. For easy reference, a summary of movements features 160 mini-photos.
