I rarely 'speak Tai Chi' because my goal is to make it more accessible so I take a more western approach. The moves are confusing enough at the beginning stages, so why add unusual terminology, and it is not necessary for beginning students to find value. That being said, there are several forms of Chi - Tien chi is heaven chi. This ancient concept is not so ethereal. There is a huge amount of energy coming from the sun and stars. Gravity felt from the moon. Neutrinos from the sun, billions per second passing through each square centimeter of skin. They are so small, and our atoms are so far apart that these particles pass through us without contact. They don’t even know we are here. About twice in a lifetime, a neutrino particle will interact with one of our particles. Cool, isn't it?.
