Saturday, April 25 is World Tai Chi and Qigong Day. I will be behind Dickens Elementary School at 10:30 to lead Tai Chi and Qigong exercises. Come join me. ☮️ If it is raining we can meet at the Peaceful Dragon School, 1945 Pauline, Suite B, Ann Arbor.

The new semester begins April 27. Ongoing classes in Tai Chi and Chi Kung (Qigong)

How much control do we use/have when either doing the Tai Chi Form or projecting intentional Chi to others?

There are limitations.

Tai Chi - If you exercise too much control when practicing you may lose the flow and hinder the organic process of sensing the body.

Chi Kung (Qigong) - In trying to intentionally control the direction of Chi, as in wanting a specific effect on another for health purposes, we may find that we miss what that person may really need.

Since the foot placements and how one steps are the foundation of the Tai Chi Form, it's a good beginning for someone who may need to take it slow (pun intended 😄).

Happy Chinese New Year - Year of the Fire Horse. Let your heart/mind be focused and intent full. Let your spirit run calmly free and steadfast with determination. ☮️ and 💕 Master Young

People are asking me if I’ve ever heard of Tai Chi Walking… It’s just another way people are trying to generate interest/income. Most everything I’ve seen is extracted out of the tai chi form. It is almost the same way that people are trying to rebrand mindfulness, grounding, and meditation. The main benefit, I see, is that people who can’t learn tai chi, for whatever reason, can still benefit from the mindfulness it brings to feeling, mindfully placing the feet and paying attention to the shifting of weight. I prefer the first four exercises of the 8 Methods that Professor Cheng man-Ching designed… Wearing the Moon, Walking on Ice, Wading the Stream, and Skulling. Three of which I have provided previously.
