Tai Chi at the Allen Center - 2012 Day 256

Six slunk into HEC 110 for a 19-ish minute called set. It didn't feel that fast but I was feeling some irritation which must have accelerated my breathing. *shrug* Oh well.

After the set, there were numerous questions including some on Step Forward, Deflect Downward, Parry and Punch (the right hand just before the punch), the transition of Strike Tiger into Turn and Kick With Heel, and Part the Wild Horses Mane, after which I added some comments on Turn and Chop (right hand flat vs. fist), Step Forward to Seven Stars (right hand fist), and Turn and Sweep Lotus (hand positions during the turn).

As time was short, five followed that with a run through of the sword. That produced questions on Agile Cat Seizes the Rat and Bee Enters the Hive.

Alas, we did not have time for staff today.
