Everyday Tai Chi - Tai Chi exercises for everyone, any time, any place

Everyday Tai Chi - Tai Chi exercises for everyone, any time, any place

I took my MCC class on Tai Chi with snow outside again last night before taking Diana to the Cracker Barrel for supper before the fire place. I ended up with a smaller class working on Snake Creeps down and Golden Cockerel standing on one leg a lot. One nice thing of group meetings is you can fine tune and work on pushing skills. There is nothing as good as having a trained eye be able to watch your movement so you can get feed back. It helps prevent getting sloppy in a movement and even after months of practice I still work on getting better at it. Now its muscle memory. I did read a study once that said to get muscle memory you need about 1000 repetitions so I have a way to go and in a 24 form you end up with lots of variables. Just changing weight on a foot changes center of gravity issues. I am off to Fitness Formula to see about knee rehab for a while. Live long and prosper. Peyton
