Tai Chi: The principles to get you started and confidence to keep you going

I enjoyed the full journey and did my morning walks while listening to the book. It was easy to visualize the movements and understand the breadth of the benefits. The book was intuitive and provided realistic expectations along the way, as well as clear definitions and context which made it enjoyable to listen to and begin to have a foundational understanding of Tai Chi.

Recommended introduction

Lucid, concise and instructive, with clear actionable advice that, while respectful of the traditions and philosophy of Tai Chi, does a great job of leading one to the most resourceful place for starting training. Good narration too.

A Pleasant Primer

Informative and enlightening, albeit a little quick at times where you'd like some additional exploration. Worth the listen for anyone interested in learning more about Tai Chi

Introducition

Introduction into Tai-Chi that gives a beginner a better understanding of what they’re getting involved in. Provides you with the foundation to begin your journey. I didn’t really understand anything but it’s because I have no previous exposure to Tai-Chai. Author did a good job helping me understand.

Awesome!!!

One of the best audiobooks on Tai Chi. The author clearly explains what Tai Chi is and what it is not. A great value for the money.

Very Good Practical Introduction

This does very well in helping people understand the preliminaries and basics on what you're getting into, especially for some of the more abstract ideas that may be harder to grab. It's like a good and grounded way to start forward while leaving open the possibilities of further exploring more of the nature of Tai Chi, the spiritual journey, and philosophies afterwards.

It sounds like it would be a good basics guide for anyone wanting to start this journey, especially if you're someone who really wants concrete concepts to focus on before becoming more abstractly and spiritually intuitive and help the wisdom and philosophies make more sense later. Even if you're someone who is fine with things just spiritually philosophical, this gives good grounding principals to start with as a foundation.

Also, the narrator is easy to listen to in a soothing manor that compliments the content. Additionally, because it is not too long, it didn't leave me feeling overwhelmed (at least for me) and gives the main ideas both consisely and meaningfully that will make you want to learn more.

Just like how Tai Chi can be for anyone, this can be for anyone interested in Tai Chi.
