Demonstrates two of the oldest forms of relaxation - the stretching movements of Tai Chi Ch'uan and the breathing exercises of Qigong. This book shows all the techniques needed in photographs and illustrations from the Beijing University of Physical Education.
After 10 years, this book holds up well. Great overall, recommended foundation to beginners, good reminder to advanced practioners. Very helpful for tai chi and Qigong teachers. Recommended.

I recommend this book to a true beginner. The book presents an easy to follow text. Very well presented pictures. An excellent book covering the Beijing Short Form (24 Forms). I have personally used this book for years as a reference source. Good foundation book.
