The Exposure of Tai Chi
Hello internet users, I would like to share with you about the disadvantage of Tai Chi.
First of all, as you all know by now a plenty of details about Tai Chi which most of the information are about the pros, practice Tai Chi do have cons as well and here is some cons for learning Tai Chi
So, let's take a look at the cons of learning Tai Chi, shall we?
Practice Tai Chi like all internal arts, it takes a long time and period to learn and mastering the art of Tai Chi. To mastered the Tai Chi is about 5 years, it is because late Grand Master Hao Shaoru (1907 - 1983 passed away at the age of 76) mastered the Tai Chi himselfMoreover, for casual learners or busy people, we recommend daily practices of 20 minutes in order to reap the benefits of better health. The practice content could be either doing entire forms or simply doing the first two moves of the 49 forms.
Also, there are stages of 10 to be mastered which are beginning I, beginning II, beginning III intermediate I, intermediate II, intermediate III, advanced I, advanced II, advanced III and senior. So, to put it simpler, it is long way journey to way up to the top unless you are determined and persistent also stubborn enough, hehe.Not to forget, it is hard to find a school in the West that will teach you the martial applications, most Tai Chi are just focus on health and management of stress and tension.
Furthermore, when attending the class, the result would probably will discomfort the physical body because the classes is actually long time of period and will felt out of energy. Also, the difficulty of the Tai Chi movements is quite challenging, it is because the movements itself is hard to remember and follow the steps.
Finally, it is not suitable and appropiate to practice Tai Chi independently especially in home or anywhere that you are individually apart from the others even though you are watching the Tai Chi practice online at Youtube, it wouldn't be the same as in class and a practice must have a guru to monitor for any steps or movements.
I recommend you try it yourself. This author seems to have misunderstood or was overwhelmed by the lessons involved. It can happen. Don't give up. You can start on the most basic form and find Peace there forever. The idea is gentle push and pull movements, timing of breath and clearing off the mind. Intent and patience I'd all you need. A Yoga Center or any internal works group will guide you to a wonderful experience you can enjoy alone, one energy, or many, shared energy. You can perform the movements in your kitchen, porch or open field with appropriate adjustments. I recommend barefoot on the earth, grass or sand. This is called, "grounding".
ReplyDeleteI learned my first form with a David Carradine VHS many years ago then took advantage of my town's activity offerings and went every Saturday for a short while and learned from a great teacher for a nominal fee.
Peace, Love and Happiness.
Namaste, My Friends.
So why is it so expensive? And why these centers became so business oriented, that they always try to sell you new packages and retreats that are outrageously expensive?
