Taoist Tai Chi Demonstration


The Taoist Tai Chi Society recently held a national workshop here in Victoria and one of the events was a demonstration of Taoist Tai Chi on the West Song Walkway. I've recently begun to learn Tai Chi through the activities of this volunteer organization and am enjoying it very much. Our weather on this Saturday morning was cold and windy and this group has my admiration for their wonderfully coordinated performance under these difficult conditions.

Happy that you are enjoying it. Keep it up... the benefits from practicing TaiChi regularly are huge.
Have a happy Thursday!

Years ago I tried tai chi, thinking that I would enjoy it after 15 years of martial arts. Unfortunately, I found it too slow and uninteresting for my taste.

After a recent trip to Costa Rica, I'm thinking of some sort of Latin dance instead.

One of my fave things to see in San Francisco are the many groups of Asians doing their daily tai chi in the many parks in The City. It's a very graceful thing to watch.

I've just started doing Tai Chi at age 58, and love it. Also Qigong, and working with the breath is fascinating and beneficial to longevity. Inspiring!

A fascinating idea- I know nothing about Tai Chi, and a great photo
