Hi all,
I have been reading your posts for some time, and they have been very interesting, thank you.
I have a question about tai chi chuan forms; why are many of the movements only practiced on one side? I asked a teacher (who teaches tai chi for health, not fighting) who said that the body's internal organs were not arranged symetrically, and the tai chi form reflected that. In a fight wouldn't it be a problem if you had only practiced a particular pattern one way?
Thanks and all the best,
Dod
