Santorini, Greece - Ellen, June 2014 | ![]() Cock WristTai chi selfie at Ruinas del Rey (Ruins of the King) Mayan settlement and temples, only a short distance from the bustle of Cancun, Mexico. Quiet and majestic, much like the practice of tai chi - Dennis, June 2014 |
![]() Brush Knee PushWe visited Nevada and hiked a beautiful, rugged trail in the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area just outside Las Vegas. With virtually no other hikers around, it was a quiet, lovely spot to do a form - Dennis (and Deirdre, next slide), March 2014 | ![]() Beginning of Tai Chi ChuanRed Rock Canyon - Deirdre, March 2014 | ![]() Brush Knee PushSteve, Savannah, March 2014 |
![]() Single WhipDelhi, like most places in India, is full of people, of sights, of sounds--of life! In the midst of the city, there are peaceful places to be found; the courtyard of the fascinating Crafts Museum is one such quiet oasis, just right for a form - Ellen, December 2013 | ![]() Snake Creeps DownLiam, Northern California, August 2012 | ![]() Dolphin Rolls InI saw this 1983 Toyata Dolphin parked in the street outside my house. You can see above the passenger seat that some parts of it are made of wood. Someone was clearly living in it. There was a bike locked on the back. It had Minnesota plates. Wow. Some people are still travelling free, living free. I looked closer and saw the Yin/Yang symbol in the window (inset). Do you play tai chi? Do you follow Dao? - Anonymous, Ann Arbor, September 2012 |
![]() Step Forward and PunchVienna is wonderful, full of art, music, pastries and good coffee. There is always a need to balance these with our tai chi practice. Here, in front of the Hundertwasser House, I took such a moment - Ellen, May 2012 | ![]() Play Arms Like a FanWe trained at sunrise on the beach in Puerto Vallarta (Jalisco, Mexico). We got down to the beach before the crowds arrived and enjoyed the relative solitude and peace. Training in sand continues to present balance and other challenges, but it was great fun - Deirdre (and Dennis, next slide) April 2012 | ![]() Slap Face With PalmPuerto Vallarta, Dennis, April 2012 |
![]() Golden Cock on Left LegEverything about my niece shimmered. I responded with the bit of gold I had access to. She countered with Play Arms Like a Fan, sticking to a thousandth of an inch, unless she was holding on for dear life - Georgia, Brattleboro, VT, 2006 | ![]() |
