Many people who visit Tai Chi hope to find an exercise and/or some symptomatic relief for health issues. In the late sixties, when I first saw Tai Chi being performed at a class in Cambridge, Massachusetts, its beautiful, graceful and relaxed movements mesmerized me. Having had chronic lower back pain which had caused me difficulty most of my life, I wasn't sure I could even do the Tai Chi movements; but I joined a class and found almost immediate relief. After learning some elementary steps, I went on to find my teacher, Patrick Watson, a senior student of the Master of 5 Excellences, Professor Cheng Man-Ch'ing. Fortunately, Patrick Watson selected me as an apprentice teacher. I have been teaching Tai Chi for the last 35 years - with no recurrence of lower back pain. Perhaps, because you are reading this now, you are seeking ways to improve your own health and balance. Many Westerners have found Tai Chi to be a bridge between East and West, a bridge that provides an easy-to-learn and satisfying life enhancement tool to maintain vitality, increase strength, improve balance, clarify thinking and integrate the body, mind, and spirit.
