Simplicity

At the root of finding balance in your life is a commitment to simplicity.
When things become ornate, over-complicated and embellished, they lose their essence.
Tai chi chuan is about getting in touch with the real: what is right in front of you.

The extraneous is removed, and the material is pared-down to only what you need.
To what matters.

When you have the essentials, there is economy. You are not burdened by the superfluous.
