Publisher's summary

Tai Chi can be confusing, but it need not be. As a matter of fact, it is not. The reason it is confusing is that you are not given the full information. Tai Chi masters and instructors are sometimes not straightforward people. They may want to keep some secrets, or maybe that is how they are taught.

Well, all these are not important anymore. This audiobook has been specially made to explain Tai Chi in a simple and easy way for practitioners to understand. No more head scratching to decipher what the master is saying, and no more guessing work. This audiobook will explain it all.

Things to expect from this audiobook:

• What Tai Chi is and internal Tai Chi
• Tai Chi and yin-yang
• Tai Chi and chi
• Tai Chi structure
• How to train and things to note
• Tendons training
• How to be rooted
• Tai Chi and health
• Tai Chi as a martial art
• Applying Tai Chi into martial arts

If you are having difficulty in your Tai Chi journey, this may be the audiobook for you. Stop wasting time on practicing the wrong thing. Understand what it is and get it right the first time.

Enjoy!

There is nothing like clarity.

The author makes difficult concepts clearer to me than any book I have read in the last thirty years.
Would refer it to any beginner, or anybody looking for new insights.

Life changing

Glad I finally found something simple and understandable about Tai Chi and how to use it to have a better and healthier body!

Good Book Bad Narrator

The book and it's concepts are fascinating and I enjoyed what I learned. But the narrator had the most American accent and every Chinese word spoken was said with very poor pronunciation. The American Narrator mispronounced Yin Yang to to point that I almost couldn't finish listening to it. He also put too much emphasis on words ending in "ing," for example he said Qi Gong and it sounded as though he was saying "Chee Gongga"

I would recommend reading this book and not listening to it. The narrator would be really good reading a text book or a narrative that doesn't require foreign language pronounciation.

Good place to start

the writing is simple and easy to digest. I was in search of a high level overview of some of the concepts prior to enrolling in a formal class and this book was exactly what I was looking for.

Tai Chi principles in easier to understand concepts

As promised, Tai Chi concepts broken down into several principles for purposes of better understanding the ancient practice, but from the pot of view of the psychological and mental components as melded with the more contemporary physical elements. Very helpful for the understanding of the entire practice.

Good for everyone who practices

As someone who has practiced for over 20 years in Taijiquan I find this book summarizes the core concepts of what makes Taiji effective. I am grateful for the author taking the time to put it together so concisely and clearly for all to understand. If you want to learn Taiji then listen to these principles and it will save you a lot of time and avoid going down the wrong path.

Great material, nice and succinct!

Very good explanations of fundamental concepts of tai chi, leaves out all the poetry and ambiguity that can lead to mistakes and misinterpretation. Answers questions in a simple way instead of leaving you with more questions than when you started. Have a listen and go practice with confidence!

A hidden gem

This audiobook has a ton of really good insight about the principles and philosophies of Tai Chi

This book explains proper practice, not exercises

This book explains the goals of practicing Tai Chi. It offers many pointers for proper practice and what the practitioner should aim to achieve, like splitting the yin and yang in a stance and movement and the importance of strengthening the tendons. It does not describe exercises. It is not a training manual.

Nailed it!!!

A straightforward overview of Tai Chi. The author gives valuable information that most Tai Chi practitioners will find useful.

A Great Guide to Taiji

Some great pointers to your taiji practice, with some I Ching theory to start.

Very useful principles

Very useful principles - for any movement, martial arts , internal arts, dance...

Great for having in mind (and body) when doing tai chi , qigong.
