Finding a good teacherand the time and money for classes. Many programs are held at night, when you may be just getting home from work or needing to clear up dinner dishes. And you are never sure of the qualifications of the local teacher. Then too, many classes charge weekly fees so that if this something you want to practice for several years, you could be spending as much as you might for a full health club membership. The other alternative is to learn at home from videos. I tried that. But I found that many of the programs were so complicated and the directions were not very helpful for someone just starting out. I began to think that this particular program was something I would not be able to do no matter how many benefits the researchers said it had. Then early in 2008 I found a program that: - Is taught by a knowledgeable expert who had studied under a number of Tai Chi masters
- Uses a series of simple movements that even a beginner could do
- Is so convinced that the program is effective and that participants will be able to do it, that it offers a full money back guarantee.
