Whoops! My Chi is unTaied…

Ok, first impressions of Tai Chi class… Egad my knees are killing me! I’ve got a lot of the standard confusion of a dojo newbie, and I’m sure I’ll get over that in time, but I never expected to ache like this. Seriously, there’s no good way to describe how my knees feel after standing in ready stance for a long time… Hopefully I’ll get over that too.

Also, I’ve either got to leave work about ten minutes early or find a faster way between here and the dojo. I took off from the office at five sharp and I was six or seven minutes late to class. And you can bet I didn’t dawdle on the way. Actually, I think the brisk walk did more to tire me out than the class itself did. We’ll see how that changes in the next few weeks.
