Between..............



It's the moment between postures where we must avoid drifting off and losing our connection to the present moment.

Juice


I had the pleasure of meeting Scott Meredith today.

Scott is the Author of Juice - Radical Taiji Energetics which is an important book in understanding and working on the internal concepts of Tai Chi.

As usual, I was reminded that I am not as relaxed as I thought I was ( no, I didn't really think I was that relaxed ) so am inspired for further exploration and practise.

Scott's website is http://www.zmq37.com/main.html

Without Arms


One of the hardest things to do is to not use your arms independently of the body.

Thinks about how you would do your tai chi forms without any arms.

I like this clip which is small frame Chen style because if you look closely you can observe how the arms follow the body/waist/legs.
