At nearly four hours in length, Sunrise Tai Chi is surely one of the longest exercise titles, but with its selection of 20, 40, or 60 minute workout regimens, it's also one of the more flexible and comprehensive guides to this ancient Chinese exercise. Tai chi master Ramel Rones is an articulate and engaging instructor, who demonstrates moves for beginning, intermediate, and advanced-level sequences, emphasizing deep breathing, relaxation, meditation, stretching, and strengthening, while also discussing how he has used tai chi to treat patients with a variety of illnesses. Shot in high-definition video at the Harvard University Arboretum, each interactive workout features a choice of music. A fulfilling and energy-rich alternative to aerobics, this is highly recommended. Aud: P. (P. Hall)
