Mindfulness seminar with Steve Rowe.

Understanding the difference between mindfulness and meditation.

Before being able to meditate you have to become more mindful.

Steve explained and taught how you turn your mind inwards focusing on breathing, posture and just observing your thoughts and letting them pass.

An amazing 3 hours with a great bunch of people. I learnt so much more about Yin and Yang energy.

Advance Tai Chi coaching course today.

We had a recap run through of long boxing, broad sword, double edge sword and then went to work training on the spear.

The main focus was driving all techniques with the waist and feet.

Keeping all joints loose with the head straight.

Steve explained how you have to constantly practice the techniques until you internalise it and it becomes a part of you.

“Are you a martial artist or someone who just does martial arts”

Great day with great people and learnt so much.
