Apps to practise with
The guides tell you what to do. These iPhone apps, made by EASYTECH, guide you through doing it every day.
Ginkgo for iPhone
Stand steadier, one gentle day at a time.
About 7 minutes a day on an 8-week path of tai chi and qigong, standing or in a chair, with a calm voice guiding every move. Every week, check your balance beside the kitchen counter.
- An 8-week steadiness path
- Standing or seated
- A weekly balance check
My 74-year-old mother uses it every morning. The balance exercises feel very safe and the Tai Chi is really suited to seniors. Her doctor praised the initiative!


Second Spring for iPhone
A calm minute, the moment you feel warm.
Tap 'Feeling warm?' for a one-minute guided breath in a human voice. Then a gentle plan of tai chi and breathing for perimenopause, menopause and after: 5 to 15 minutes, standing or seated.
- A one-minute breath, one tap away
- 40 gentle practices, 5 to 15 minutes
- A four-week plan with real dates
Thank you for such a caring app. The gentle Tai Chi sessions help me enormously with my hot flashes and anxiety. I feel much more serene.


Pacent for iPhone
Walk the Japanese way: 3 minutes brisk, 3 easy.
A coach calls every change, so the phone can stay in your pocket. Your targets come from your own 30-second pace test, and your plan runs 22 weeks, with dates.
- The 3-and-3 method, coached
- Targets set from your own pace
- A dated 22-week plan
The 3 minutes slow / 3 minutes fast rhythm flies by. The app guides me with audio cues so I don't have to keep looking at my phone.
