This is a translation of an informal conversation with Master Li about Tai
Chi. Master Li explained and demonstrated some concepts with Mr. Du, one of his
senior students. Translation by Mrs. Zhu "Annie" Xinye.
Foreword: I've practiced Tai Chi for a few years and have accumulated some
questions relating to Tai Chi. Some of these questions I know the 'canned' answers
to, but not the meaning behind them. I have tried to avoid the more usual questions,
although not all, wishing to know how Master Li would answer.
Some answers are broad one-liners, others are more detailed and there are
even some pictures for illustration. The good part is: it's from a man who knows
what he's talking about.
