Tai Chi instructor Ahmad Ptah El talks to fitness professionals

We are thrilled to welcome as our guest, Sifu Ahmad Ptah El to Group Fitness Out The Box! If you listened to our show Tai Chi and professional group fitness instructors, you will appreciate why we're so excited to have Ahmad come on the show.

Ahmad has extensive training in the martial arts focusing on the internal martial arts for years. Today he talks to us about our professional lives and its costs to our health and wellness; and how we can increase our longevity, healthfully, in the field of professional fitness instructing. 

Topics covered:

• What is tai chi?
• Why is it beneficial (life-changing, in my case) for fitness professionals?
• How to evaluate a tai chi program and instructor
• What form should you learn?
• What should you expect in terms of training and time commitment? (In our profession, that translates into "can I learn it in a weekend workshop?)
• Suggested reading: Tai Chi Health for Life by Bruce Frantzis
