Tai Chi form feels disconnected

I do the Tai Chi 24 form. Since doing this program i can't do the form with the same shapes because it feels very disconnected. My form looks bad but it is starting to feel better. Why does it feel soo disconnected?

Review, Review, Review!

I encourage every student to go back a review each lesson many times over. I have been doing this with the stage one videos and i am so surprised by how much i didn't see or hear the first time around out the third or forth time around. There is so much depth that its nearly like starting over again. Thanks again Sifu for this curriculum.

Sore throat after breath work

For some reason the back of my throat feels as if I have been shouting a lot after doing breath work. I am not breathing hard, heavy or deep, but I am amazed at how much tension I feel when I am trying to breathe.
