Unless you do yoga or tai chi all day, you are not going to lose weight. You need to walk at a pace such that you can talk as the same time, and you need to walk two hours per day. You can build it up slowly. Example, 30 minutes today, 35 minutes tomorrow, and 40 minutes for the day after and build it up to 2 hours. Watch you diet as well.
neither is the correct answer, neither require you to move enough to significanlty loose weight
The yoga class at 24-hr fitness was intense. It makes you sweat! Plus all of that stretching gives your muscles a long and lean look.
If you are practicing what passes as tai chi these days (i.e. Grandma’s tai chi) then you won’t lose weight. Traditional martial methods, however, do pick up the metabolism like crazy. Find yourself a competent instructor from a verifiable lineage and observe a class. If the students come out of there all sweaty and happily exhausted, then that’s the class for you. Good luck.
