Tai Chi is just for sissies, right?

[Guest guest]

 

Do any of you practice any Tai Chi exercises as an addition

to your Kenpo routine either in the " warm up " or " cool down " phases

of your training.

I've been increasing this portion of my workout due to the

restorative effects of Tai Chi on aching muscles, joints and

ligaments.

Does anyone share my belief in the value of Tai Chi or do you believe

it is just for sissies?

 

Nelson,

I'm sure it's just for sissies.

Want to dance?

 

Any way,

 

I assume you are referring to only the restorative effects being

valid. If so I agree with you.

 

And the restorative effects of Tai Chi are due to one primary reason.

 

Here is the reason.

 

The slow movements and stretches reconnect the top of the body, the

arms, and the legs all energetically.

 

So if the Belt Line flow is constricted doing the Kata will stretch

the stomach area so that the Belt line flow reconnects properly again.

 

If the energies are clogged in the knees, when the back of the knees

are stretched, the energy that is collected there will be dispersed

and new vital force can easily flow through them.

 

Back in the late 70's, early 80's I learned Yang style from Tim

Byrne. About 9 years ago I learned energy medicine from Donna Eden.

Now I just do the energy drills instead of Tai Chi.
