Tai Chi?

Leiann Lynn Rose Spontaneo @Spontaneo (14699) • United States 14 Feb 22

Out of curiosity, do any of you do Tai Chi? If so, what does it do for you personally? Yes, I do want to lose weight. But I have found online that Tai Chi really does not do much with weightloss. Should I perform Tai Chi...

My last visit to Hong Kong and from my hotel room I took this picture of people practicing Tai Chi in the park. Apparently it's a form or martial arts, and if sped up can be lethal. The people practicing it though looked like...

Funny thing about this "leisurely" day I started

James Higgins @JamesHxstatic (29410) • Eugene, Oregon 19 Sep 16

I slept until 7:30 AM, an hour late for me, then got up intending to myLot, eat breakfast, do some yoga for my unreasonably stiff back and just take it easy. Then, at about 10:10 AM, I got a text from a friend at the old birdseed...

Apologies Are Due

James Higgins @JamesHxstatic (29410) • Eugene, Oregon 8 Oct 15

Don't you get annoyed when people barge in to a site and write a post, as I did today, and then sort of disappear, spending very little time reading and commenting on the posts of others? I sort of do get annoyed about...

Tai Chi - the martial arts spirit!

ivan88 @ivan88 (193) • Canada 28 Dec 12
