I have frequently encouraged people to try TaiChi, and always said "one day" I'll try it myself. Well, my first lesson in the park at Temple of Heaven, led by a master, was truly informative and encouraging to continue.

This was super awesome. Our guide was great and he was really helpful. He took us to the Pearl market which is right across the road from the temple of heaven. I highly recommend you do this when you visit China....

The tai chi class was great and the Temple of Heaven very beautiful. I also loved the art studio where the tai chi class was taught. I bought several things there.
