Tai Chi and Qigong: My oh my, the learning never stops

Years ago I asked my sensei when I know the forms he was teaching me.  He did his sly smile and said, “your last breath will be the end of your learning the nuances”.

You know what, here is is 18 years later and I am still finding he was right.

How often should I practice my Qigong? You already know.

The other day I did a presentation on Tai Chi and Qigong to a group of 52 of the Mansfield Township, Warren County NJ seniors.

I talked about the benefits, a  bit of history and the difference between the two modalities.

The Tai Chi step, learning how to walk all over again

Where to start if you want to learn Tai Chi?  By walking, but not just any walk.

 

You may find this odd because you already know how to walk, or I assume you do. Your balance could be good or it could need work. Either way you have been walking your whole life.

I am not a lineage fanatic, so purists, please don’t hate me

OK, I teach what works for me.

Opening and closing joints,  soft relaxed movements, balance, timing, coordination, breathing, “zen” focused concentration all done in some type of sequence or form.
