Hey guys I just posted in a thread before here:
http://www.martialtalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=83331
And after all your great advise and searching the net rigorously for something that suited me for grace, yet also being affective. Ive come across Tai Chi Chuan and was just wondering if you think this is good not only for the excellent spiritual condition (which i want) but also for self defense. And does tai chi have potential in it. Again i used the search bar and couldn't really find something that pinpointed what i want. So in conclusion:
1. Is tai chi useful as a self defense and is it as good a grade of self defense as other martial arts?
2. What is a good way to know if a dojo is a good tai chi dogo/teacher.
3. Anything else a noobie should know about Tai Chi.
If for any reason you do not think Tai Chi is a wise choice please post your criticism every bit helps, as i am still not entirely sure of what i do want to study.
