About This Item
Lyons Press, 2008. Hardcover. Fine in very good dust jacket. 7x0x10. This straightforward book is an essential introduction to Tai Chi, one of the ancient martial arts of China, whose history goes back more than two millennia. Although the discipline has always been practiced in the East, after the Second World War it became established in the West as well. After considering the philosophy underlying Tai Chi and how the various styles developed, the book looks at concepts such as rooting and the basic principles of movement on which all the styles are based. A concise selection of movements and exercises are demonstrated, using a combination of text and sequenced full-color photographs, all of which perfectly capture the serenity and calm of the art form.
