The education of attention would be an education par excellence .
       - William James

This is exactly what Tai Chi teaches us. In training our bodies to perform precise movements we develop awareness. Awareness of when we get ' it '  right, of when it flows naturally , slowly but surely we learn about attention and how it affects our Tai Chi and everything we do.
This in my opinion is about the best training for life it ensures that you will put your full attention into all your activities and get the most out of endeavours..
