Cheng Ming Tai Chi
Tai Chi has been part of my life for nearly 5years now. Initially I took it up to support my body with Fibromyalgia, then I got hooked and began to stand properly and breath better, and my overall health is in good nick. Then I began to see deeper layers in the practice which is firstly the 5 principles, next the form [100 moves] and so it goes, layer by layer. This deepening learning has led me to read Zen Body Being by Peter Ralston, and now to read deeply about Nicherin Buddhism, attend meetings and begin chanting, when I go to Melbourne in September to a Cheng Ming Tai Chi camp I will be admitted as an inner door student and commit to the practice moving to a deeper level.
