Dr Paul Sir. I really love to watch martial arts movies. For the first few time's that I have watched yout videos. I am blown away with the beauty and grace of Tai Chi. It's like dancing slow and graceful. I am 58 years old. I have several health problems. I am also a Army veteran. As a young boy I watched martial arts movies and told myself that one day I will learn. I hope that I can learn and not disappoint you sir. Thank you for these great videos.

Jason, I am sure most people can. I suggest to work with Tai Chi for Beginners first, follow my instructions, take your time learn one lesson and practice until you are familiar with it, then move on. Tai chi brings great benefit and enjoyment, it just requires a little time and patience. Good things come with time. Do give it a try.
