About this title

Review:

"One of the best books on the subject. . . . Practical throughout and stripped of mysticism."-- New York Times

"A tranquil, graceful way of keeping fit."-- Harper's Bazaar

"You will have to consult Mr. Maisel's book. . . . Tai Chi could become that all-important exercise factor that stands between you and health problems."-- Prevention

"It is Chinese, old, comfortable, deeply pleasurable. It helps the figure and skin and tranquilizes. It is done in a small space in ordinary clothes without music. It is good for the young, for the old."-- Vogue

Synopsis:

Tai chi employs slow and graceful movements that have been shown to reduce stress, tone muscles, improve balance and circulation and combat fatigue. This manual illustrates and explains each movement, offering a simple tai chi workout that can be performed in ordinary clothes, at any time or place.
