We will begin our time together by learning the proper way to stand.
This will help us break through a lifetime of old habits and programmed
patterns of movements. From stillness, we begin to move. Practice of the
Tai Chi Chuan form builds strength in movement, stamina and the ability to
relax in strength. In a sense our practice is a martial art: our goal is
to increase our sensitivity to and awareness of outside forces that affect
us physically, mentally and spiritually. |
The Tai
Chi Principles are even more important than the movements for they
are the laws of nature that shape our every moment. Moving in slow motion
while listening internally promotes calmness and sensitivity to the laws
and rhythms of our “small” universe. Tai Chi starts out as
physical; However as we begin to understand the rhythms and principles of shape,
form and movement, it gradually becomes more.
