Here is a selection from the Yang Tai Chi 24 movement form performed by our very own Dr. Yinong Chong, Executive Director of TCCII. The Yang 24 can be very “Yin” or meditative when performed as Dr. Chong demonstrates. The Yang 24 form is a good choice for those just beginning Tai Chi who wish [...] Critical care nurses learn the ancient Chinese healing art of medical Qigong.
