Refine your Tai Chi center line to improve your posture and become the steel needle wrapped in cotton. Learn to create softness around a strong center line in this 16-minute tutorial.
Perfect for all levels, instructor Susan teaches her signature "curtain rod" method for establishing a rooted connection in Tai Chi. Use visualization to access the central energy channel by expanding spine length and alignment from feet to crown. Feel the gentle lift at your core just like a curtain rod extends with spring-loaded lightness.
Surround the lengthened central structure with mindful relaxation into looseness - this is how to achieve the Tai Chi ideal of "needle in cotton". By elongating the body’s vertical dimension, you also avoid compression into stiffness. Instead, maintain space and flexibility like an ever-extending telescopic rod.
Increase Tai Chi energy skill by gathering, rotating and spiraling Chi once centered. Susan's innovative and highly actionable lesson progresses sequentially from stance and footwork to torso rotation to energy collection.
Ideal for practitioners seeking new levels of comfort, connection and flow. Master classics like Wuji, Push Hands and intermediate concepts through Susan's step-by-step instruction grounded in tangible sensation.
