All welcomed.
Here are a couple of Tai Chi tips on stance work that will help you avoid knee and ankle problems.
1. Make sure your knees don’t collapse inwardly
2. Avoid rolling your feet outwardly
These two common faults occur because of tiredness and lack of concentration. And also when a Tai Chi practitioner, particularly a beginner, adjust their position incorrectly to ease that ‘burning sensation’ (workout) in their thighs which occurs after a period of time of standing.
It’s been a very busy start to the year and this is my first chance to write a post. From here on in I’ll start writing on a regular basis.
So what’s been happening?
Well, I’m booked out for the year for Chair Chi workshops for aged care centres which is great as I really enjoy working with the elderly.
