Tai Chi Staff 37


About Tai Chi Staff 37

Tai Chi Staff 37 is a Tai Chi staff form of 37 movements.

A staff is a long stick. The appropriate length varies from person-to-person according
to one's height. An appropriate length staff should go from the floor up to the person's
eyebrows or slightly higher.

Thus Tai Chi Staff 37 is a Tai Chi form where the practitioner uses a staff as a prop while
the form is being done. Not only is this form extremely fun to do, but the use of the staff
is great for toning the upper body. The whole form does not take long to do; it can be done
in 3-5 minutes. It is a great moving meditation and is a nice complement to other Tai Chi forms.

For those interested in learning other Tai Chi staff forms, this form is a great place to start.
