Tai Chi Tip #56

When raising your arms make sure you sink (relax) your shoulders.

When completing a self defence application make sure your arms are in Seven Stars (on guard).

Regulate your breathing – slow, smooth and deep – during your Tai Chi practice.

Practice your self defence applications with your arms relaxed besides your body (not just from an on-guard position).

Footwork: Turn left 45 or 90 degrees – pivot on left heel and right ball of foot (turn right – reverse)
