This is often translated as “not doing” but its proper meaning is to act without forcing—to move in accordance with the flow of nature’s course that is signified by the word Tao. The spirit of wu wei is to make curves in the way wind and water move. T’ai Chi is one of the many ways to help discipline the body and find a way to release tension. T’ai Chi can be a way of letting the body really teach you, be with you and help you to get through the conflicts you encounter every day. Restriction(s): Not intended for Dance or Dance major(s).
