TAI CHI

A Personal Perspective

Once upon a time it was all about learning the entire form as quickly as possible…once upon a time it was all about the externals…how typical was that (!?)…growing impatient with teachers & classes & people that seemingly went nowhere & some that really didn’t…followed by the moment when my restlessness met its’ match in my sifu & the challenge & real work began…

 

The pathway hasn’t always been smooth & straight…it hasn’t always been easy…there have been unsettling moments…but now I wouldn’t want it any other way…recognition, acceptance, commitment came
s-l-o-w-l-y…what was happening, what was changing for me…

 

Oh yes, I still want it to be “progressive” but now the word has taken on a whole new meaning…especially when I hear sifu say “it’s time to take your learning to the next level”…the alchemy of unifying & transforming the energetics of body-mind-spirit one day at a time…those moments when you lose yourself in the practice…where you are the form & the form is you & there’s that glimmer of deeper understanding beckoning…
