This book is a remarkable event in Tai Chi books: highly advanced and very practical and precise at the same time. For a beginner that is a remarkable combination. So practical.
The book focuses on the very basics of Tai Chi as developed and articulated in the Five Loosening Exercises developed by Master Huan Shen Shyan, who was a senior student of Cheng Man Ching in Malaysia and later a highly recognized master in his own right. These exercises by themselves help one to develop abilities in Tai Chi but here the author, Glenn Blythe, also makes sure we understand the underlying basics of Tai Chi at the same time. So we learn not just the Exercises but also Tai Chi in a broader sense. Well worth a read. A remarkably practical yet advanced and easy to follow book.
