Spring in the Park
Ahhhhh. spring is in the air.  Today was the first day of going to the park to practice T'ai Chi.  The sky was blue and crystal clear.  The lake was still and serene.  Buds were forming on the trees nearby.  Fish were jumping in the water.  People were busy with activities.  There I stood with my assistant, slowly moving through the forms of T'ai Chi.  Relaxing deeper with every breath.  The smell of Spring in the air.  The temperature was 58 degrees yet felt much warmer.  The sun a huge ball of energy in the sky.  Yes, Spring is here, the park is calling and we will be there every Tuesday at 6pm weather permitting in the marina parking lot near the Salt Museum.  Please, join us.

Tao Te Ching

Seventy-Six

A man is born gentle and weak.

At his death he is hard and stiff.

Green plants are tender and filled with sap.

At their death they are withered and dry.

 

Therefore the stiff and unbending is the disciple of death.

The gentle and yielding is the disciple of life.

 

Thus and army without flexibility never wins a battle.

A tree that is unbending is easily broken.

 

The hard and strong will fall.

The soft and weak will overcome.

(consider the waters hitting the rocks).

I come

to meet you, God,

and as I linger here

I seem to feel You

very near. 

A rustling leaf,

a rolling slope

Speak to my heart

of endless hope.

"T'ai Chi is...Rooted in the foot, released through the leg, controlled by the waist, and expressed through the hands."

 

T'ai Chi is the teacher, we are all the Students.

                                                          -Master Jou Tsung Hua

 

"T'ai Chi is the art of softness containing hardness, of a needle concealed in cotton."

                                                                                                                                         -Yang Cheng Fu 


 Mountain-Not Mountain-Mountain

 

Stand like a Mountain and Move like a River.

 

Song, Song and More Song.

 

What is 'playing' T'ai Chi  like?  'Playing' T'ai Chi is like dimming the lights and slow dancing with the Universe.-RLH

 

"Root to the Earth and Reach for the Stars"
