Dantian Posted February 5, 2009 Hello all, I am new here. I've had a few set backs and but looking to open my heart and mind. I have been practicing Taiji here in CA for the last year with a wonderful teacher and group. I have been attending classes in Mandaran for the last three years, a very humbling experience. Nice to be here, have a good day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dantian Posted February 6, 2009 Thanks for the greeting Shontonga, I practice Yang style Taiji. Namely the 24 simplified form and the 13 posture broadsword. I began doing taiji and pilates as physical therapy for an injury, now I doing fine and I am as fit as I was before the injury. I try to follow the principle of sound mind / sound body, and there will be good times and bad times, just have to learn to appreciate both. Have a great day. Thanks again for saying hello.
