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.
