Summary Tai Chi Fitness presents an overview of basic tai chi movements in a fitness-class format. Designed to accommodate groups of clients with different levels of experience in tai chi and various physical abilities, the class begins with a warm-up of qigong exercises and light stretching that will help exercisers limber up their muscles, "oil" their joints, and increase circulation to their extremities. The DVD offers breathing cues that engage the attention of the class and help settle the mind into slower-paced movements. Based on Yang-style tai chi, the workout emphasizes coordination, balance, and body awareness, starting with hand techniques, stationary stance, and footwork, which is then followed by moving stances and combination drills. The class ends with more qigong exercises, deep stretching, and a short centering meditation to help let it all sink in
