Have you tried Tai Chi? How would you describe the way it felt? (Relaxing, exhausting, goofy, etc...)?

Have you tried Tai Chi? How would you describe the way it felt? (Relaxing, exhausting, goofy, etc...)?
Love it... Relaxing for the mind (I feel at peace when doing it)...
Reply:No, but I had Chai Tea first thing this morning (straight up, honest truth).
Reply:no
Reply:i used to practice it. i found that it gave me energy but also left me relaxed. my hands would actually heat up throughout the forms. i found that tai chi is best done slowly. my teacher used to say "i can do tai chi slower than you"....





great mix of physical, mental and spiritual
Reply:I've tried it, and it was relaxing but not for the hyperly active or caffeine crazed in the morning....it's suppose to be slow, calm, and collecting....
Reply:I took Tai Chi at a Buddhist monastery for awhile, I also took Tai Chi Saber there and both were great but I prefer the saber because it was calming but strengthening and it was beautiful and comfortable and peaceful... I cannot say enough about the art, it is quite exhilarating actually. S.
Reply:Yes, I took a 12 weeks class. It was somewhat difficult.


It to me is not relaxing in the sense that Meditation is. It is more of an martial arts Kata or a dance routine. To learn it step by step it took twelve weeks an hour each week. If you do not practice it. Like Kung Fu or Karate, you will forget many of the moves.


When you except it , it does not seem goofy when you accomplish the form.


It can be good for stretching and a mild form of physical fitness. I plan of continuing to do it because of the possibilities it holds to clear the mind of anything else that is going on in your life. Like Golf you focus on the sport, not outside problems.

Reply:We learned it in massage class. It was very relaxing and exhausting, but it was not tiring, if that makes sense. It was only goofy for the ones who thought the rest of us were crazy for doing it.
