I'm an active paraplegic, and finding any good workout guides is difficult to say the least. This book works really well for me. I recommend it highly.

there is another tai chi chair, which is
video... both VHS and DVD on AMAZON by cindy MASON,
but its hard to find for
some reason. it is ASIN B0002TJHBW (DVD)
and ASIN B0002TSJHC6 (VHS)... it is being
used at stanford health library, mass general,
and several companies have now gotten it for
their employees... its just been released.
and that may be why amazon doesn't have a lot
of links yet, although it is in their stock...
i think this book
is good in that it helps fill in knowledge,
but if you are visual like i am, you might
want to add the video by Mason.

This book is great, I never had time for any exercise program due to my busy schedule, but this book fits the bill... I have been exercising at my desk for the past month, and the results have been astounding... I would recommend this book to anyone with limited time in their schedule, that wants to keep fit and healthy...This book will become a bible for health and fitness....
