Q: Matt, I’ve been in pain for so long I can’t remember. Your tai chi course is incredible. My knees have been a problem and these movements they are like getting a breather. I feel like the pain is being moved into a spare room. Does that make sense?

A: Makes sense to me. After so many years of wrestling, my knees were banged up, too. Sometimes my hips would hurt as well. And my ankles and feet. Not to mention one of my right shoulder and elbow and my lower back at times. The fix is not lifting more weights or training to exhaustion. It’s giving your body movements that increase energy flow. Those movements are not linear. They are circular. That’s what tai chi brings to the table, and it’s one helluva feast.
