When I’m doing my tai chi on my own, there is no noise, few thoughts, there is only moving my body through space and me noticing how it feels…in my feet, my legs, my back, and my arms. After learning for so long, it isn’t ‘me’ moving my body, the muscles just ‘know’ where to go and what to do. Mostly I concentrate on what my feet are doing. I notice all the little moments of the muscles in my feet. The power in the arms comes from the feet. #taichi #chen #ChenStyle #taijiquan

There is just enough room in my tiny back garden to do the first 6 or so moves in the broadsword form so managed to try out my new wooden broadsword for the first time. Need a case or cover so I can take it to class next week. #TaiChi #ChenStyle #Chen #BroadSword
