TAI CHI, THE SUPREME ULTIMATE
by Lawrence Galante
Paperback, 208 pages

"Three years in the making, the result is a book that has received superlative reviews by my peers, Tai Chi students the world over, university Tai Chi programs, and magazine and book reviewers. I am proud to say that this book is now in its 16th printing.

This book is divided into two parts and contains a valuable foreword by Master T.T. Liang, first disciple of Grand Master Cheng Man-ch'ing and a famous Tai Chi instructor and author.

Part 1 contains chapters on Tai Chi history, philosophy, principles and Tai Chi's relationship to health, psychology, spirituality and to other Eastern studies such as Zen and Yoga. It also contains valuable excerpts from scientific research that I carried out at Long Island University and Bellevue Psychiatric Hospital in New York City.

Part 2 teaches the 37 move Yang form as taught to me by Grand Master Cheng Man-ch'ing. Over 400 photos and diagrams illustrate postures, weight distribution, breathing, transition movements and self-defense applications for each posture. This book is a must for serious students of Tai Chi Chuan, and still at a price that can't be beat. It is now also available in Spanish and Hebrew. "
