FREE TAI CHI FOR BEGINNERS

I hope this is something different, because if you drop the jargon, the labels, the uniforms and the posturing - that is rampant on Youtube - you will find behind al that noise a quiet, gentle and profound practice that asks from you more than just a couple of minutes attention.
