I heard him mutter ‘Tai Chi doesn’t work’ but I resisted the temptation to explain and justify why it does work.
He wasn’t disrupting the group and it was probably his first attempt at Tai Chi so I ignored his comment.
My attention was devoted to the room full of people who were actively engaged and enjoying the Tai Chi energizer I used as part of a facilitation day.
Ironically this fellow was right.
Tai Chi does not work.
Especially if you stop after one minute of practice.
When there is little space one has to improvise.
In this photo I had to jump up on a chair so the back row could see me.
There were 40 people in the room at the Abbotsford Convent here in Melbourne, Australia.
I was one of the organisers of the first Australian Appreciative Inquiry Forum and helped out with Tai Chi energisers throughout the day.
Plus I took photographs and recorded short interviews for a flash slideshow of the event. We hope to have that completed and up on the AI website soon.
I’m glad the chair was stable otherwise I would have been demonstrating Big Goose Falls to The Ground (secret technique).
