A growing body of research suggests that yoga can be helpful for people living with diabetes and/or at risk for it, paired, paired, of course, with the right diet.

We invite you to explore this unique program within the comfort of your home. Dr Paul Lam will guide you, step-by-step, through each movement of Tai Chi for Energy. He will teach you the forms from different angles - with close ups, repetitions and diagrammed illustrations - while dividing each form into small sections so you can follow along with ease. Throughout the lessons, Dr Lam will explain the tai chi principles and how to use them to improve your tai chi. At the end of the DVD, Dr Lam demonstrates the entire set with both front- and back-on views. This new, revitalizing program is comprised of two different tai chi styles. Chen style is vigorous and complex, combining fast and slow movements with powerful spiral force. Sun style incorporates unique qigong (life energy) movements with agile stepping. These two seemingly contrasting styles have complementary internal energy. Using his deep understanding of tai chi principles and over 30 years of teaching experience, Dr. Lam has carefully combined movements from Chen and Sun styles to produce a powerful synergy in Tai Chi for Energy. Thus, with regular practice and in a relatively short period of time, this program will help you acquire better health and wellness, internal energy, and ability to manage stress. Once you have worked through this program, you can move onto the more challenging sequel, Tai Chi for Energy 2, which has more emphasis on Chen style, also available on DVD.
