Awesome! Congrats on getting everything transferred over! I really like the neutrality of taijiquestion. Now you can cover everything… yang, chen, hao, you name it!!
Thanks Wujimon! Good point about the “neutrality”. Chen style’s what got me excited to learn taiji. But not having a teacher, I found that I needed to study everything under the sun just to have a hope of comprehending what is taiji and what is not taiji. Now that I’m getting into a class, I may find out the hard way!
I have a certain sympathy for folks who are really partisan about their own style. But since few stick with one style for a lifetime, maybe it’s good to keep an open mind. This isn’t quite the same as taking religious vows.
