Well I just look forward to being Freakyier and Geekier all the time. I don't know about shoes(I practice barefoot most of the time)but as far as "sub-culture" Well it could be worse--we could be 'gamers" :). All kidding aside, I am just so thrilled, If a little lonely, to be part of the Tai Chi gang. I belong to a yoga class too(another "subculture" as far as this town is conserned). Practiceing Tai Chi is fun. The only other "game" in town takes it so seriously that it mainly scares people away. Some times I get to be an ambassador myself. I go down by the river in the local nature preserve and practice there a couple times a week. I always end up talking to someone who stops to watch and giving them the Drtaichi website. My only sadness in this is that I run into so many of the FORMER students of Mr.serious. They talk about how mean(yes. mean) he was and how he was constantly forcing them to do things. This is the dark side of the subculture. I am just glad that I can steer people that I meet to a place where TC is a positive experence. OH dear!!!
