T'ai Chi at the Allen Center - 2010 Day 98

Seven gathered for a 31 minute set this morning. Outside, a tour bus had stopped for a reason unknown to me. I joked that the word of your practices finally got out. :-)

Before the set, there was a question on thumbs and their placement. I answered that they should be naturally straight and then realized during the set that it really depends on what it is you're trying to do. After the set, I amended my answer and also worked with another student who was having issues with the timing of the second Turn and Kick with Heel. He had been combining two of the portions of the position which had the effect of changing the timing and throwing off his balance.
