Omar's China

Omar Calleja has been living in China for the last four years. He has been studying and working and has set up a blog to share his thoughts. In this post, he recalls his Tai Chi training in Malta:

During my second week in Shanghai, I enrolled myself with a nearby gym. One of the classes offered on the day was Tai chi.. I have practiced the short form of Yang Style in Malta with Mike Micallef and nostalgic memories came back. - Malta, Sunday mornings spent in the Chinese Garden, training itself etc. I thought that the class at the gym was in Yang style , being the most popular style for health benefits..

Today, three months have passed by and I have found the style suitable for me. Practice makes perfect - thus when I find the time, I practice the form- sometimes in parts and each part for many times. Hopefully one day when I reach a satisfactory level, Master Song will teach me ‘Nei Gong’ - inner skill. Till then hard practice - since I am living and working in China , I must learn as much as I can - this is what is called an opportunity of a lifetime.
