I bought this tape about a year ago. Be advised this tape is NOT for anyone wanting to learn Tai Chi. It is NOT Tai Chi instruction. It is an exercise tape. Please note the FULL title of the tape is: _Taoist Tai Chi for People With Parkinson's:Adapted Exercises for Health and Relaxation_. -------------------- Sid Roberts 67/dx3 [log in to unmask] Youngstown, Ohio
