Philosophy of Tai Chi
Ron Weatherford, Tai Chi instructor, has been practicing and teaching the philosophy of Tai Chi for over 25 years. Tai Chi is an ancient Chinese exercise art form that can be translated into ‘Supreme Ultimate Force’, channeling inner energy to different parts of the body. Tai Chi is a moving form of yoga with meditation originally derived from the martial arts using the natural movements of animals and birds. The way these exercises are performed for Tai Chi use are slow, soft and graceful movements with smooth and even transitions between them. One aim of Tai Chi is to foster a calm and tranquil mind that will assist a human body in learning balance, alignment and fine tuning ones motor control sensors. Thus the practice of Tai Chi can in some measure assist you in standing, walking and moving better. Ron visits Jacob’s Village once or twice a month and would like to continue teaching this art form to the residents. Everyone enjoys his teaching and company and likes the idea of learning martial arts.
