I learned tai chi from a Chameleon .........

He moved so slow I did not notice him at first ~

I climbed a Peach Tree on Maui and tried to shake the last peaches from the top branches.......

As I wildly shook the tree a Chameleon spun on the branch just in front of my eyes ......

Ever so slowly he reached for another branch to better brace himself ......



I do know of some good DVDS which teach a combination Tai Chi, Pilates, and Yoga which are quite amazing. "Miranda Esmonde-White" teaches a program she calls "Classical Stretch" and it is most amazing.

I love Miranda Esmonde-White. I have always believed that flexibility is the key to a healthy life. I always thought to myself her technique is the key. Just recently I was looking at buying a DVD season from her. Which one would you recommend????

Hi Racer

I was looking for just tai chi, not a combination. The traditional poses that you see people doing in china in groups. I don't want it for fittness, I want it for connecting to my chi and relaxing me.

Look at www.taichi18.com
There is a low resolution video of the practice on the website.
This will give you an idea whether you might like this particular form.

hi Sun girl, the dvd`s do help but is it not possible to search out a tai chi teacher in your area? obviously if this isn`t possible a dvd would definitley be the way but the help you get from a teacher is so much more than you will gt from a dvd.
