World Taiji day..

Thanks to all who came to World taiji day.It was fun to see so many students and new people on this special day.I hope all enjoyed the weather and teachings of the various Sifu's....Most of all I hope you felt good after you sent some positive Qi to the world.Remember it is always nicer to do your qigong/taiji out in the open by the water or trees to meld with nature....thanks for coming and see you in class...Sifu Mike

SPRING and Taiji..........What a great time to start or restart or improve your taiji!...the flowers are blooming the trees are full of life the air smells sweet and the days are longer......Its time to wake up from the winter and add to your life with a SPRING in your step.....Like at turtle we should move slow and steady and add to our longevity of life.Enjoy your journey and I will see you in class or out in the parks..Remember world Tai-Chi day at ramsey creek park on 4/30 at 9.30am....Ciao

Holidays

As we near the end of another year and the beginning of the new year it is always fun and productive to make some goals or resolutions for our health and well being. For me it is easy: I will continue to "live in the moment" appreciate what I have and do the best I can with what I have now.......How about you? Is there anything that you can add or remove from your life that will bring you peace of mind and a stronger body? To all my students and friends..I hope that next year brings you all that you need - And a few things that you want..Be careful out there...Sifu Mike

Back from China........I am back with a renewed vigor and an increased appreciation of what Tai-chi has to offer for me and my students....The good news is that anyone can get the benefits of Taiji/Qigong regardless of your age-health or abilities.....The bad news for some is that YOU have to do it daily and try to enjoy what you are doing...It is not a job to help your health.It is a privilege.The next time you are up and moving and breathing--take a moment and really appreciate that you are lucky that you can...the object of taijichuan and Qigong is to create a sense of well being and to feel good.......The masters say "be consistent for a 100 days and it will become a habit".....I wish all my friends could see all the people in China doing some kind of exercise every morning in the parks.(from 9 to 90)and they are having fun playing with all their friends...Remember discipline is the ability to obey yourself...As they say-try it you will like it,and its free.......Be safe and enjoy the holidays......
