First set in Arthritis
I started Tai Chi recently due to being diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis and having to keep my joints moving for this autoimmune condition. This is my third routine I am learning and it is a bit more challenging being a longer routine to learn. "But don't let this put you off." Dr Lam has an excellent way in teaching, communicating, and making learning these routines easy by breaking down each small section into both foot movements separately form the arm movements before joining them together to complete that small section. The dvd is easy to navigate and Dr Lam has great tips for learning dan-tian breathing and leg movement for balancing through your steps, and all Dr Lams routines, so far, show the routine being done with someone being seated. I highly recommend this routine in your collection.

Tai Chi for Arthritis Brush up
I have been learning Tai Chi in Port Douglas for 4 years and wanted to see how Dr Lam and his team perform the moves. I learnt some corrections to my own performance from watching the DVD by Dr Lam. I can see the need to up date Tai Chi regardless of how often I do the moves. There is always tweaks to be made to improve my movements

Tai chi for arthritis 1,2&3
I have been teaching TCA for over 5 years now and use the dvds for revision before each class. The instructions are so clear and easy to navigate. The dvd keeps me on track and reminds me of the principles of Tai Chi. I also keep some dvds for my students to purchase and encourage them to use the dvd for practice.

Excellent DVD Tai Chi for Arthritis *****
The purchase of the DVD Tai Chi for Arthritis is the beginning of a wonderful new adventure of learning in a positive calm atmosphere strengthening my body and the benefits that will flow as I practice. I am thrilled with the quality and the clarity of the instructions. Being able to follow the sessions as many times as needed is an advantage absorbing more each time. Dr Lam has a very good presentation very calming in the way he presents the sessions. I'm learning to take life at a slower pace instead of always being in a rush. I certainly will continue with the exercises and hope to become more proficient in the journey. Thank you Dr. Lam.

High Quality Tai Chi For Arthritis
The DVD picture quality is much better than I was expecting. Dr Paul Lams instructions are clear and easy to understand. At first it seems slow but this makes it easy to follow.
