To many Singaporeans, Tai Chi has always long stereotyped to be for the weak and elderly. I used to have that impression too until I picked up Tai Chi myself. I chose Tai Chi initially because it seems to be less rigorous and physically draining compared to other sports, very suitable for a passive person like me. However, I was quickly proven wrong after attending some basic lessons. Movements that are taught in class that may look simple are actually very complicated to execute in practice. Not only do I reap the physical benefits, the understanding of Tai Chi techniques made me more appreciative and aware of our ancestors”¦ wisdom and heritage. Having found Tai Chi to be such an enriching experience, I decided to become a disciple in the Wu”¦s Association, introduced by my friend Mr Goon who is now my instructor. I will like to thank you- SiFu and all my other instructors especially Ms Su and Mr. Goon; for their continuous guidance and support in a fascinating sport that I have a deepening interest in. |
