Chen's Taichi for Health & Wellness

My dad is a Type 2 Diabetic and has recently restarted teaching Martial Arts for fitness purposes and simply because he loves it. He wanted this book as he desired a better understanding of art form that is Tai Chi, especially in the aspect where it aids in health and wellness. All I can say is that he loves the book! Excellently written!

A great book, as a beginner, I find it very helpful

Excellent book

If you are looking for martial arts training I would not go with Chen Zhenglei. There is a reason he has never produced a detailed applications training video. I don't know if he has the applications knowledge and he is hiding the details or if that information was not transmitted to him. There are no applications in this book and it ends up being wushu forms. That is, it looks nice for forms competitions but real development of martial skills doesn't seem to be present in this lineage or you have to be a disciple and take formal vows to the master restricting your freedom in order to maybe be taught this. You are better off looking up Chen Yu's western students than wasting your time. This book does cover the basics of the system though it lacks depth and the details.
