Seated TCA
I started teaching a new class recently and I had an inquiry from a partially disabled person about attending the class while seated. None of my previous classes had that opportunity so I decided to purchase the video and I'm glad I did. As it turned out the person didn't show but I'm viewing the seated lessons anyway for future classes. It's been very helpful and has helped me better understand how the movements can be flexible and adjusted and still be very beneficial. Thank you!

Seated Tai Chi for Arthritis DVD
Love this version. It makes it possible to bring health and wellness to the wheelchair bound and others that cannot stand for long periods of time. It also gives me ideas for my physical therapy patients.

TaiChi seated
It is helpful to instructing people who are not able to stand in Tai Chi. It makes them feel like they’re being successful in their own way in learning how to do Tai Chi for Arthritis and Fall Prevention.

Best I've tried.... keeps you moving
I bought the dvd's on the recommendation of my physical therapist. They were starting an online tai chi class and my internet was jerky so I wanted a different way. I was told the dvd's were basically the same as the online classes they were offering. I love the dvd and really enjoy the work-outs. (and the best part is I can workout with the dvd every day.

5 minutes to profound, deep, relaxed energy
The Seated Tai Chi for Arthritis DVD is a soothing bath in tai chi principles. It is suitable for anyone who can sit safely in an upright chai and tolerate gentle arm movements. The amount of relaxation I receive upon performance of this set, and the functional carry over into my daily life are truly remarkable. Thank you Dr. Lam!!

Very helpful DVD
I am a new Tai Chi for Fall Prevention teacher. Most of my students are over 65yrs, and offering Seated Tai Chi is proving very helpful to them. I have watched the DVD several times, and watch each form just before I offer it to the class, so what I am teaching is clear in my mind. Any other teaching material on this subject would be greatly appreciated.
