Now that the coronavirus has the better portion of our country sidelined from exercising or staying active, some people have come to realize that staying healthy is not all about the location, the equipment, the gear, the clothes, the look.
Staying healthy is however a state of mind and a matter of choice. What you do or where you do it is not as important as finding some method of exercise that you can commit to doing consistently.
I usually teach 3 tai chi and qigong lessons a week and a few private lessons. Now, ZERO classes for the unforeseeable future. So I will be out that income stream until things change. However, for about the last 10 years, I have been recording many of my classes and posting them, FREE to view for anyone willing to try to watch and learn from an online format. My original goal in posting classes online was to raise the awareness of the benefits of tai chi, qigong and martial arts exercise methods. I don’t have millions of followers on Facebook, YouTube nor Instagram but some regardless.
More viewers/followers would be nice but really what is gained by having millions of “likes” if no one really does the exercises and benefits from doing them?
What would be nicer, really would be to have more people that actually attend classes or take lessons and truly reap the benefits of these time-proven treasures of ancient knowledge. A teacher can’t make a student learn but can hopefully teach something new, fun and interesting, while setting a good example.
