Tai Chi

I first heard of Tai Chi in the early 80s, from a friend who put me off. Then in about 87 I started hearing of it again from a volunteer I was supervising. That led to me giving it a go and learning a long form. I enjoyed the way it was taught - with very little spiritual padding, just concentrating on the movements. The day my father died I was due to go to a big Tai Chi evening, which I missed, and it put me off the whole thing for a while. Then I re learnt it in about 92 and have been doing a short form on and off ever since. I know not why I feel better for doing it in the morning, but I do. And that is good enough for me.
