Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. You do not need good balance to begin. You do not even need to begin standing. Somewhere in the last year or two, something changed. You take the stairs more carefully now. You put a hand out in the hallway without quite deciding to. Nothing is wrong with you. You would simply like your confidence back. This is gentle tai chi for seniors that starts in a sturdy chair and meets you exactly where you are today. A ladder you climb at your own pace Every movement is taught at more than one level, so there is always a version that fits your body today: Rung 1, Seated. A complete seated tai chi practice, done in an ordinary dining chair.Rung 2, Seated and Active. The same movements, fuller and freer, still seated.Rung 3, Standing with Support. On your feet, with a heavy table or counter always within reach.The Wheelchair Path. A full parallel version of every movement, written out properly, never as an afterthought. You climb only when a simple self-check tells you that you are ready, never because a calendar says so. Some readers climb all three rungs. Some stay seated and grow steadier anyway. Both mean the book is working. What makes this different from other chair exercise books for seniors No unsupported balance exercises. Nothing here asks you to stand on one leg, close your eyes, narrow your stance, or let go of your support.The one common mistake, shown for every movement. Seeing what not to do is often what makes a movement finally click.Six simple questions before you begin, so you start at the right rung, safely.A whole-body turning rule used in every turning movement, a sensible precaution for anyone with thinning bones.Clear stopping signs, repeated where you need them, so you always know when to rest.
