Congratulations on beginning your journey to learn and teach SilverSneakers EnerChi. Be patient with yourself as you start learning and feeling the movements. It takes time and practice to reveal the health benefits that come from practicing a tai chi-inspired class.
“Let the process of tai chi not be an onerous task; let it be like gardening. Once you prepare the soil and plant the seeds, nothing reveals itself until a few weeks later. And some things start developing sooner than others. Yet, the garden always changes, and the gardener changes with it. Build yourself a good garden. Tend to it patiently, peacefully, yet consistently. When the time is right, you will realize your harvest and receive nourishment from it. May your “EnerChi” development blossom and grow, forever nourishing your body and soul.”
