Anyone out there have recommendations for beginner tai chi videos online?
Classes in person would be ideal, but this is for someone hypermobile with fibromyalgia (and some other issues), that cannot access classes easily at the moment.
So, videos that are clear and simple. Especially as chronic pain can cause brain fog, so clarity is key.
They are keen to try, having been recommended slow movements, so they can keep mobile without causing any extra pain by over exerting/extending.
We know strength training, stretching, yoga etc... But have no experience in Tai Chi, so assessing a good example from a bad is tricky.
Any suggestions that narrows our search gratefully received 👍

Need to update the quotes section on my profile because I picked the worst ones possible (in terms of looks, everything you tell me is scratched deep inside my heart :ablobcatheart:)
A gift for my fediverse friends: please enjoy an ebook copy of DERELICT, book 1 of the Halcyone Space series.
Free via Gumroad. Or if you'd prefer, message me & I'll email a copy.
A group of teens stranded on a sentient spaceship must work together or risk being killed when the ship's AI wakes, believing it's still fighting the war that damaged it decades ago.
One of the things I miss about Twitter that I don't see on fediverse are "invite" posts. Whether they were selfie trains, your pets, food, or whatever the topic, public invites for others to join was a great way to meet new people!
Trying to be a grown-up with his own house and having to deal with PKU has it's challenges - like trying to find new, inventive ways to have low protein food and have my exchanges all in one go, three times a day, every single day.
This is going to be a thread 🧵 - feel free to read more below 👇
Guten Tag, kleiner verzweifelter Hilferuf. Mir sind gerade für meine Umzug morgen nach #hamburg zwei Umzugshelfer Krank ausgefallen. Kann mir irgendwer helfen. Geht nur darum Sachen vom Sprinter auf Rollbretter und Sackkarren zu bugsieren, danach ein bisschen Rollen und Fahrstuhlfahren. #boostswelcome#boostsok

this lil goober goes "honk mimimimi" right next to my bed all night and i wouldn't trade him for the world :blobhaj_melt: :shiba_love: :patrick_cozy: :lots_of_love:
If you haven't heard, @poconnor is donating half of her profits from "Living with PKU" to the NSPKU - a fantastic charity that helps people with the rare disorder called PKU!
And if you buy both of her books, you get 25% off!
As someone who has read both of @poconnor's books, they are simply fantastic!
Living With PKU is a fantastic resource for PKU folks and non-PKU folks alike (whether you are a parent, in the medical field, or just curious!)
Living with Mild Brain Injury is a phenomenal story about brain damage told in diary notes and micro-blogging like posts. The most interesting way I've read a biological account of someone suffering with brain injury.
looks like we're posting adorable pet pics/videos tonight in #CutieCity, so here's one of Hiro (my #SillyDoggy)! :corgi_yay: :corgi_butt: :cozy_nap:
our local timeline (https://cutie.city/public/local) is always cute, but it's looking especially cute right about now! :cat_cute: :sylveon_squish:
it's been way too long since i last posted a photo of my #sillyDoggy, so let's make up for it with two photos!! 😊 :corgi_butt:
i especially love these because in the first one it looks like he's smiling a big smile, and in the second one you can see all of his cute little crooked front teeth 🥺 💜 🥰
