Search - Katie Hope :: Tai Chi

Tai Chi Chuan is a gentle but powerful series of of graceful movements which restore and promote the circulation of chi or life energy - throughout the body. It is not strenuous exercise in the sense that jogging or aerobics are, as it is performed slowly and deliberately and at least one foot always remains on the ground, but all the same it provides an effective cardiovascular workout, and one that is safe for young and old alike. In this album, written and performed by Katie Hope, you will find the perfect musical mood to compliment the slow and deliberate rhythm of movement associated with Tai Chi. The wonderful orchestrations containing delicate flavors of the East merge with flutes, bells and guitars to gently support the inner psyche and lead the body's internal rhythm through all the Tai Chi sequences. An 8-page booklet accompanies this album, giving you useful information on Tai Chi. It is a unique introduction for those who are new to the discipline, and a source of inspiration for those who have already made it a part of their lives.
