Introduction to Tai Chi Week 2

In this episode we review the ideas of awareness and understanding the range of motion for movement. We also talk about calming the system and relaxing the vagus nerve through the activities. We explore the seated foot exercises and some of the foundation exercises which are used to understand base movement, and after the body is warm and open, they become movements to release tension in the tendons.
We begin learning moves from the 108 moving meditation, in the seated version. We finish commencement, left grasp birds tail, grasp birds tail or the three pushes, and finish with whip to one side and step up to raise hands.
We explore the power of the movements through this series and how the body finds its way back to whole body movement for coordinating all the systems in the body as well as their related muscles.
