From the publisher

Simplified Tai Chi Chuan 24 Posture is one of today's most popular and easy to learn tai chi forms.


This book presents both the Simplified 24-posture Tai Chi form and the Simplified 48-posture Tai Chi form.


Simplified Tai Chi Chuan 24 Posture is one of today's most popular tai chi forms. Once learned, it can be performed in only six minutes. If you are learning tai chi in a school, a fitness club, a community or recreation center, or even the local park, this is the tai chi form you are likely to encounter.


The martial arts applications for each posture are shown so you can understand that every movement has a purpose.


The Simplified Tai Chi Chuan 48 Posture is a popular tai chi form practiced by those who want a longer, more challenging sequence. Once learned, it can be performed in only twelve minutes. The forty-eight posture form is often the next form a student studies after learning the twenty-four posture form.


Here's what is inside this book:



  • Theory to help you understand tai chi's important tai chi concepts

  • Warm up exercises for safe and proper tai chi practice

  • Fundamentals so your tai chi movements will be easy and natural

  • Foot diagrams so you will know what direction to face

  • The complete Simplified Tai Chi Chuan 24 Posture form, step-by-step

  • Martial applications for each movement of the 24 posture form

  • The complete Simplified Tai Chi Chuan 48 Posture form, step-by-step


This book presents in a modern easy-to-follow layout. Every tai chi movement is presented in 2-4 large photographs with clear instructions, followed by key points to help you learn properly.


No matter your age, tai chi chuan is a wonderful way to improve your health and well-being.
