balance, breathing, internal strength, Sword, Taiji

I performed this form in Creta (Greece), last June.
I had some difficulties because of the uneven grass, some hesitations you can detect but I did my best. A good practice encompasses also “non-flat” ground and I had to take the risk!
I did not edit the video because I wanted it to be watched in its original version.
A natural soundtrack (cicadas) can be heard. It has also a natural “signature”: a white, cute butterfly that appears at the very end of the form.
I credit my daughter Virginia for shooting the video.

basic stances, breathing, meditation

This video is meant for my new students that today practiced with me in Hiroo. Not much space is needed to perform this sequence, that’s why I highly recommend it to everyone, as a form of meditation in the morning or as a way to improve the basic stances.
…Keep breathing, relax your shoulders and hips, tuck your tail bone slightly in and gather the energy from earth…You will feel your energy circulate through your body, you’ll drop all your thoughts and your mind will reach into a calmer state…
