Blacklisted in the 1950s, Hunter did not see her film career take off again until she donned a monkey suit to play a chimpanzee in Planet of the Apes (1968).

There are many good how-to books to get you started, or you can choose from among the growing number of classes offered at rec centers and health clubs across the U.S. (These have the added benefit of combining instruction with a chance to meet new people.) Either way, the goal is to move at your own pace. As Tai Chi master Martin...
