thank you. *putting hands together in a bow*

i gave tai chi a pretty good try -- did classes for a year or so, stopped for a while, then tried again. i love the flow of it, the meditative way of moving through space. sadly, my left hip never got used to the movements, and persisted in making it too painful to ever get really comfortable with. i'm looking to get back into doing some pilates/gyrotonics work to try to re-arrange some of those old holding patterns, and perhaps i can get back to the tai chi after that...

That would be great! And if the tai chi is still too difficult, there are some styles that are more upright and put less stress on the legs and hips, so try shopping around for other instructors, or those who specialise in teaching people with joint problems.
