Anyone try Tai Chi to help with neuropathy and balance?

I was just diagnosed with PN. I do water aerobics, strength training, and my physical therapy exercises. I have gotten strong enough to where I can stop my PT.
I have not tried yoga yet, even though we have some balance exercises in both water aerobics and strength training.
In short, I think yoga would probably help. Hope this helps!

I really think I would prefer Tai Chi I don't know why except it doesn't seem like it would be as strenuous and that it might possibly cover more areas also my balance with my feet having neuropathy and my legner pain also my bad back with degenerative disc and sciatica I know a little bit of martial arts and I can go through some of the movements slowly but I never really learned Tai Chi which I would really like to

I joined a sofa yoga online only because I cry knowing that I have to put my feet on the floor just to stand. Sofa yoga, I don’t have to stand. I love it.

Yoga has several different methods. You might have your physical therapist for which method would be best for you.
