The Five Movement Centers is a template for understand HOW you move and applying it to any form you know or any repetitive movement you can perform, like going for a walk, is going to have a serious impact on how grounded, fluid, and connected you feel.

In this clip from the Tai Chi Way to Better Balance, Don Miller demonstrates each of the Movement Centers.

Watch how his shifting changes as he goes through all five. Do you recognize these patterns?

Try it out and let me know how it feels!
