Summary: A Beautiful Book with Clear Instructional Format
Comment: I have browsed through a number of T'ai Chi instructional books, but none compare to the quality of this one. Every movement of the T'ai Chi form is clearly demonstrated with numerous, full-body photographs and detailed written instructions. Correlations are also given between the form's movements and a section of "basic moves" which help train the basic movement patterns of T'ai Chi. I love that the "basic moves" section even includes written descriptions and pictures of common mistakes! In the book, the author also covers some basic warm-up techniques and other essential aspects of T'ai Chi such as breathing. It's amazing how much she packed in to 160 beautiful and inspirational pages.

Another thing I appreciate about the book is that it is a wonderful complement to Tricia Yu's T'ai Chi Fundamentals video that I already owned. Now I can use the video for practice or to experience the flow of the movements, but I can also reference the book for more "static" detail. Oh yeah - the video is beautiful and inspirational as well.

Summary: Best Tai Chi Book I've Ever Seen
Comment: I have looked at Tai Chi texts for over twenty years and this is simply the best text I've ever seen. The photographs, both inside the studio and outside, are lovely and practical. They have a side text and brief remarks in the photo identifying key
points in each posture. The written text is clear and straitforward without the usual overemphasis on philosophy, history, and martial arts. It's really the type of text that any beginner(and even more advanced student)will benefit from.

Summary: A valuable Tai Chi reference
Comment: This is absolutely the clearest, most accessible and most beautiful tai chi book I've ever read... everyone on my Christmas list gets this-- from my niece in her teens to my grandmother.
