The books

Both books belong to the Gentle Daily Habits series. Each one teaches a single small routine you can follow from the page alone, at home, with a chair and a kitchen counter.

New to tai chi walking? Start with Tai Chi Walking for Seniors. It begins in a chair and builds the slow tai chi step over 28 days.

Want steadier turns and one-leg moments? Tai Chi Walking for Balance picks up where simple walking leaves off. You can also start with it directly; it teaches the basic step again in its first weeks.
