Why don't students train at home?

This is a perplexing question.

The usual reply is 'time'. But you make time for TV. You make time to sleep-in or go out drinking.

A keen student trains at home because they want to. Not for a reward or because you asked them to. They don't need asking.

The time spent at home is more important than class work. It is a time for practice, study, repetition and reflection, an opportunity to explore and enjoy.

Tai chi is an investment. If it feels like a chore, then you are yet to 'get it'.
