Gilda's Club presentation

10/05/2013 10:55

Kelly and I presented to the patrons of Gilda’s Club last night here in Barrie.

We initiated the participants by demonstrating the 16 forms and the 1st Shibashi set. We then spent quite a bit of time talking about the health benefits one can derive from a serious internal arts practice and we even got everyone up to participate in a mini version of Shibashi set 1.

The participants seemed quite keen on our practices and one woman who is already doing tai chi shared how it has helped in a specific regard.

All around it was a good night and I would like to think that we shared something positive and helpful with those that have been challenged with cancer.

Thanks Kelly for sharing you time and charm.

Peace

Rod

Quote of the Week

"Second is mindfulness of feelings, it is at this stage that we work with the chi or fine material energy. The chi is most easily perceived through feelings and this path of practice helps one to bypass the common pitfall of relying on imagination and visualization of the internal energy as this can quickly become a fabricated fantasy rather than a direct knowing of reality in the present."
