Joy-Filled Movement
By: Cary Fellman
Students come
Bodies unbalanced
Hands hard, arms stiff, knees locked
We begin
Muscles relax
Knees bend, hands soften, tension leaves
Weight shifts
Front to back, side to side
Toes flick, heels lift, arms float
We practice
Energy flows, Yin ~Yang
T’ai Chi Chih enters the soul
