Today is World Tai Chi and Qigong Day
I'd like to offer my thanks to Dr. Robert Bates, Lee and Karen Holden, Garri and Daisy Garripoli, Thich Nhat Hanh, and, believe it or not, David Carradine, who sparked my interest in the gentle martial arts many, many decades ago.

Dr. Bates's New Tai Chi Video
So far all I see is this short on You Tube, but if he puts it all on DVD I'll probably get it. Be sure to go to YouTube to watch this and read his description of the video. I'm one of the people who wrote him about having 2 left feet and found even the simplest tai chi movements too complicated. To me, this is as complicated as advanced math - I just see/hear it and my brain goes into spasms.
I'll attempt to do these moves, but I've been trying to master just the foot movements of tai chi for decades now and still trip over myself making the turn from one side to another. I'll stick with Dr. Bates's Fun With Qigong videos for now.
