Tai Chi Classroom Form 22. Closing Form While inhaling, bend left knee and land left foot front, toes pointing forward. Transfer most of your weight onto left leg, and turn torso left. Draw right foot beside the left foot, shoulder-width apart. Straighten legs slowly. Drop extended arms in a down curve to cross right wrist over the left wrist in front of chest, keep palms facing in, and elbows bent. Look straight ahead. While exhaling, extend hands sidewise, and turn palms to face down. Drop hands to the sides. Do the Tai Chi Form once again. Relax and return to the Wu-ji (beginning) Form. Remain in this posture for a while, focussing your attention on your lower abdomen. Now look into the distance and divert your attention from the exercise. Walk slowly around as a rest. Do not engage in any strenuous physical work immediately after the exercise. |
