Publishers Description: An Australian family physician, Dr Lam is one of the most experienced and respected tai chi teachers in the world. He has trained over five thousand teachers using his unique teaching system based on more than 30 years experience, the latest research relating to learning, tai chi philosophy and medical knowledge. This system, along with his teaching method, has been adopted by tai chi teachers worldwide, resulting in dramatic reductions in drop-out rates and greater student and teacher enjoyment. Within these pages you will find: an analysis of an effective teacher. a practical and comprehensive teaching system, illustrated with real life examples. a treasure trove of useful teaching tools. Now revised and updated with a new section designed to guide the teacher working with people of different ages and conditions - from people with arthritis to Parkinsons to children, pregnant women, older adults and people in the workplace. "This remarkable book needs to come with a warning: Beware, Dr. Lams extraordinary passion for Tai Chi and creating teachers will change you and the world. It could not come at a more opportune time as we search for practical and effective solutions to the epidemic of chronic disease. The role of Tai Chi to influence the course of most if not all chronic diseases such as arthritis, diabetes, and heart disease has very much come front and center as an important healthcare strategy. Bravo, a new day cometh." John H. Klippel, M.D., President & CEO, Arthritis Foundation, USA
