a- I appreciate, now, the requirement for me to learn to be and practive being tranquil, calm, relaxed BUT concentrative from the spine and waist and reaching to the arms and legs. Movements are very slow and executed, with the possibility if needed, to be protective. Breathing regularly and smoothly are important. Inner strengths and energy are shown outwardly through prescribe external actions and movements.
b- Learning to reach that calmness and inner strength will, I feel, take some time!
Tai Chi is graceful and quite low-impact for people of all ages, by the way.
I wish you could see a group of Chinese rising early to meet and practicing...they flow from one controlled pose to another. The entire body becomes involved, not just arms and legs.
c- Surprisingly, Tai Chi is a martial art, with many styles. If one does the movements quickly? They become combative and for self-defense. Tai Chi, rather, was created over 2,000 years ago for MEDITATION!
d- A feel that Tai Chi Chaun is for me...as ron rascal says, "Inch by inch, everything's a cinch!"
