A short introduction about me, my life and flow that led me to this point of sharing this beautiful sacred movement art with you.
Practice a tai chi flow that centers energy, opens a window to skies, shifts weight through the legs, and extends the arms as the right leg steps out, bending knees.
Practice static tai chi clouds with in-place hand lifts and drops, circling softly without leg movement, ending with a grounded energy ball in front of the face.
Explore a short tai chi flow of brush water and push the mountain, featuring a 90-degree left turn, two steps, and coordinated hand movements.
Master the parting wild horses mane within the tai chi flow, coordinating 30-degree steps, energy gathering, and hand positioning while shifting weight for smooth, controlled movement.
Perform the golden rooster stands on one leg, turning toward the original direction of the form, and shifting weight between the left and right legs, dropping and rising as needed.
Learn the cut and slide tai chi flow by coordinating left and right hand movements—cutting, sliding, and rolling the palms—while pushing in different directions and aligning 45-degree leg positions.
Execute the ending posture by opening the hands, gathering from below, balancing with the left leg parallel to the right, and breathing as you lift to the heart for gratitude.
Perform the full tai chi form with coordinated breathing and energy gathering, moving through clouds, wild horses, and golden rooster stances, culminating in cut and slide sequences.
Perform the full tai chi form with music, delivering a concise, powerful sequence for a short, effective tai chi flow.
