Simple stretches you can do anywhere-at your desk, on your couch, or even in your car!

Visit any public park in America in the morning and you'll see them-groups of people of all ages practicing the ancient and beneficial martial art called tai chi. Tai chi has been proven to lower blood pressure, improve fitness, and provide overall relaxation and well-being. Now, it's even easier!

Originally designed for the elderly, these adaptations of traditional tai chi exercises are simple and straightforward while retaining all of the important health benefits of the original movements. You can get fit without exhausting sweaty workouts. And all you need is a chair-no props, no special clothing, no VCR!

- Includes one complete routine and five 15-minute mini-routines. - Special bonus chapter on acupressure points. - Illustrated throughout with line drawings.

This book will appeal to the millions of people who want to start exercising but can't find the time, or who are intimidated by the thought of joining a gym.

- These exercises can be done in the privacy of your home. - Appeals to busy executives as well as homemakers and retired people. - First book of its kind!

Summary: tai chi chair VIDEO/DVD
Comment: there is another tai chi chair, which is
video... both VHS and DVD on AMAZON by cindy MASON,
but its hard to find for
some reason. it is ASIN B0002TJHBW (DVD)
and ASIN B0002TSJHC6 (VHS)... it is being
used at stanford health library, mass general,
and several companies have now gotten it for
their employees... its just been released.
and that may be why amazon doesn't have a lot
of links yet, although it is in their stock...
i think this book
is good in that it helps fill in knowledge,
but if you are visual like i am, you might
want to add the video by Mason.
