Tai Chi Grounding.

It seems that one major collision between Tai Chi and Dance is the grounding. Tai Chi is almost all solidly on the heel, ready to absorb and redirect force into the ground.

My basic nature does not involve spending my time up on my toes floating above the floor.

My particular fascination right now is in vibrations. When I'm in the zone, I've found that I can move in ways that I never imagined, and the feeling is pretty incredible. Suddenly some of the things that I heard about internal circling from a particular (somewhat crazy) tai chi teacher, years ago, starts to make sense. When my legs are moving in tiny little circles at a rate that I absolutely can't consciously control (and I'm pretty sure are roughly in sync with a high multiple of the beat), I don't know... it's mind-blowing. Yeah, strange. You have to be there, I think.
