Tai Chi

I asked my wonderful Tai Chi teacher if I could take her portrait today. Entering the dojo is entering an oasis of calm in the midst of the stresses of the city, the holiday, and my life. I'm a bit of a klutz at the form but am positively certain that it has health benefits, and am learning so much about the history and the form from Kim who has many years of experience with martial arts and the masters of the world.

She was looking particularly spiffy today and she chose the beautiful sword form. (and I got exactly 2 shots. :-) ) I have yet to learn this...

Thanks, Kim!
